OK, so she was a county clerk who refused to issue a marriage certificate to a same-sex couple and was briefly jailed and fined as a result. Now she’s the vehicle to overturn same-sex marriage because she’s seen as basically the only person who would have standing to bring the issue before the Supreme Court again?

But how does her case have any bearing on whether or not same-sex marriage should be legal? It’s a separate and unrelated issue. The connection isn’t even tenuous, it just seems nonexistent.

I really hope the Supreme Court just declines to hear the case. At least Kavanaugh and Barrett don’t seem interested in revisiting the issue.
