Against religious conduct released and stated in violation of the free exercise clause under Trinity Lutheran.

Following yesterdays Supreme Court judgment, the but i cant. Following yesterdays Supreme Courtjudgment, the Prime Minister presumably got in touch with the Buckingham Palace and offered his apologies to her majesty the queen for unlawful advice. My question is that the attorney general speak to the Prime Minister before that conversation took place . I didnt, no. Seems he cant remember would he agree with me that any reasonable attorney general acting with due care would challenge and perhaps even laugh at any suggestion that five weeks of
