justice thomas: what is the difference? mr. mcdowell: bloom requires that encouragement overwhelm the judgment of intermediary, -- justice thomas: and what would that look like in this case. mr. mcdowell: in this case, i think you could think of the offer of leniency that vullo made it to lloyd's as either a form of significant encouragement, saying we will go easy on you for legal violations, or as a threat basically saying we will bring these enforcement actions against you if you do not stop doing business with gun groups. coercion and significant encouragement are two sides of the same coin, as mr. fletcher said earlier. chief justice roberts: counsel, considerable overlap with the first case. can you articulate what the differences are with your position in this case and the position in the prior case? mr. mcdowell: there are no differences as to the legal principles. the difference here is there is a specific course of threat, particularly in the lloyd's meeting, where she threaten adverse action in the form of enforcement

mr. thomas mentioned. today i am here to cover fourth quarter performance for the portfolio and very strong year overall. really across the markets. economy continues to show resilience in the face of battle against inflation and higher interest rates so we'll touch on a few of those topics in my comments today. first, maybe starting on page 2, this is the spurs bit numbers slide. again which is meant to highlight some of the high level points. as of december 31, 2023, the portfolio sits at 34.6 billion. when you factor in the very strong quarter returns that we'll touch on, you can see over ten years, the return for the portfolio has averaged annual basis just around 8.3 percent so well in access of your discount rate. that is good news. 30 basis points comes from active management. sorel tiff to your benchmark over that time frame. again another positive indicators. factoring your liabilities, the based on the market value of asset over 95% this is a metric that we touched on last week and your spend rat

yeah, but even if you believe that now in this vote, we're at a stage where, everybody knows what mrs. thomas doing. yeah, he must read the papers. he must know now, too. so how is it now? doesn't recuse himself. it's kind of a it's a conundrum. it relates back to them having no or investigative all code of ethics. okay. yeah. so i just want to say, i'm not trying to give a shout out to your earlier book captured. i started reading this one and i thought i want to go back and reread and i've been enjoying that so much. then the chapters do sort of stand on their own and you do talk about agency capture there and you talk the insidious lewis memo back from 1971, right before he on the supreme court. it's it's got a deep dive through captured into the specific supreme court. yeah no so i'm really deep in it, enjoying it. but i do want to ask what can we do between now and december 31st? is there you can do about you know the senate with the house while we have both bodies on on the ethics and the supreme court and recusing i think there's a good chance that the house judiciary committee might h

justice thomas: mr.tewart, was there y ight put on the interdependence of the 23 states as far as the benefits of the plan and the cost to the individual states? mr. stewart: i think, when they feto interdependence, they're -- they're referring to ki of three topics that were discussed in the preamble. the first was epa to pns to point out that although it was engaging in a compcad inquiry to decide what emission controls could b cost-effectively imposed on differentys of industrial sours,n the end, it was placing the same requirements on all of the covered states; that is, to do equity, it was sayg that power plants in indiana ed to come up to the same standard as power plants in texas. and so, in that ns the plan was interdependent in that epa wanted the same restrictions to apply to sources in all states, but that -- chief ste roberts: thank you. just if i could interrupt. at -- what's the smallest state among the 23? thsmlest state in terms of emissions? mr. stewart: i -- i'm nosu. ief justice robert

justice thomas: mr. martinez, how much deference is in tension with the judicial role? martinez: i think it's very much in tension, your honor. justice thomas: no. how much would it require? i mean, your argument is that chevron deference is problematic. but how do we determine how much deference is too much deference? martinez: i think you've certainly crossed the line when you have a rule that says that we're going to allocate interpretive authority from -- from article iii courts to an agency. and so, when -- when you've got deference that amounts to that, which is what chevron deference is, then i think you've -- you've crossed the line because what you've really done is -- justice thomas: i think what i'm trying -- what i'm asking is, how do we know where the line is? we show deference. you -- there's skidmore deference. martinez: sure. justice thomas: we are deferential in fact finding, et cetera. so i'm just trying to determine whether you're saying that we -- if it's not de novo review -- martinez: right. justice thomas: -- without any presumptions or deference,

ste thomas: mr. kneedler, wouldn't you have a better arguntf robinson involved someone being arrested for using ug but then the court said that you were in effect arresting him for the status of a ug user because he was -- he had no choice but to use dru because he's an addict? mr kneedler: no. our -- our position is not that the condt in robinson, the drug addict can't stop from using drugs. that is not our position. that'a estion of personal culpability on the basis of what the substances make up -- juicthomas: so what's the difference between that and -- and a camping out? what you're saying here, it seems as though you're saying, well, they -- there's no other choice, so you have to camp out. therefore, you're really arresting this person for the stus of homelessness. mr kneedler: yes, but -- but not because of an -- of an involuntary compulsion sense. i thk,s justice alito pointed out, the nexus here is actually closer than in the -- than in the addictn tuation because sleeping outside is essent

mr. cole: again, it is the same sw as to justice thomas. of course the first amendment prohibits absolute censorship or suppression of speech, but it also prohibits the imposition of any burden on speech because of its content. even if the government denies a contract to an entity because it disapproves of -- justice jackson: right, but isn't the hard part figuring out whether or not the burden is being imposed because t content of the speech or becau of the conduct? that is where we have to be real ceful about what you are alleging is a first amendment problem, because e government can regulate conduct. mr. cole: i agree, and if this was a case where the government d said the nra is violating e law left and rht and we have to respond to that, and here are the legal obligations, that would be one thing. that is not what they said. they said "we want to shut the a dow wwant to put the gun lobby out of business." the title of the guidance letters that she issues are guidance regarding the nra and her gun-promotion organizations. the whole gui

mr. bin laden, who was killed using 15 american missiles, was similar to his own. morality to george washington, thomas. so, does america have a constant desire to destroy the russian state? why? the interests of the united states and russia are directly opposed on many issues. apparently , this is why the americans decided that they must stop all attempts by the russians to increase their influence on the world stage. i tried to reduce the reasons for the rivalry between russia and the united states to certain points. point one. ya. russia for several decades now, it has been the only country that can destroy the united states with nuclear weapons, or at least cause them irreparable damage. us military interests require solving this problem in one of three ways: destroying nuclear weapons in russia, subjugating russia , or creating some kind of defense against our missiles. so far it’s not working out very well, but this is a question... if the west succeeds in, so to speak, tolerantizing our country, it will receive an additional prize, the peaceful absorption of russia, russia is trying to put this

thomas? >> i guess what i am struck by, mr. clement, and this follows from the skidmore thing. skidmore is not a doctrine of humility. chevron is. chevron is a doctrine that says , you know, we recognize there are some places where congressional progression has run out and we think congress would have one of the agency to do something rather than the court. we accept that. that is the best reading of congress and also because we know in our heart of hearts that agencies know things that courts do not. that is the basis of chevron. you take that doctrine of humility and you put on top of it starry decisis, another doctrine of humility , which is to suggest we do not willy-nilly reversed things unless there is a special justification. here kaiser said it is even more than that. there is even more reason not to reverse something, because there have been 70 supreme court decisions relying on chevron. because there have been 17,000 lower her decisions relying on chevron. you are saying blowup one doctrine of humility, blowup another doctrine of humility, and then expect anybody to t
