@randahl Trump is 79 years old and won't live to see legal justice. But he is and has been literally cancerous to everything and everyone he encounters except for those who bow before him and do his despicably-cruel and ill-informed bidding. His actions are cancer. As president with the power that #JohnRoberts bestowed, #Trump is #cancer and I will never apologize for wanting full and total eradication of such malignancy.

Arguments underway in #SCOTUS #VotingRightsAct case

#JohnRoberts first called on Janai Nelson of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund to present her argument. Nelson is representing Press Robinson & other #Black #Louisiana voters.

Nelson argues her opponents “seek stagging reversal of precedent that would throw maps across the country into chaos.”

Roberts & #Kavanaugh are the ones to watch

Along with the three liberal justices, #JohnRoberts & Brett Kavanaugh were part of a surprising decision two years ago that required #Alabama to redraw its congressional districts to benefit Black voters and led to the new map in #Louisiana as well.

The outcome likely will be different if either justice votes differently this time around.

"In an interview at Catholic University last week, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said what he’s clearly been thinking for the past 30 years: Supreme Court precedents don’t matter, and he’s making things up as he goes along to fulfill his own political agenda.:

"It turns out, they don’t actually care about precedent (no matter how many times they lied and claimed to care during their Senate confirmation hearings). They don’t actually care about the text. They don’t actually care about judicial restraint. They want the political outcomes they want and they have the votes to do it."

"If Thomas were the only justice who thought like this, it would be a containable problem. But the entire Republican cabal on the Supreme Court rules exactly in the way Thomas is talking about, with no respect for precedent or stare decisis. …

The entire Trump administration has been a 'mask off' moment for the Supreme Court’s conservatives."

"Thomas is saying that if he doesn’t like where the 'train' of stare decisis is leading him, he can just get off and go in a different direction. Remember, Thomas’s war against the 20th century can’t achieve victory if old Supreme Court opinions have weight."

"The polite norms around the Supreme Court have been obliterated. This should be apparent to everyone; every one of these shadow docket rulings where the majority semi-anonymously grants a would-be dictator more power to overthrow the Constitution only reinforces the fact that the high court’s age of respectability is over."

"Does it ever feel like the Supreme Court is going out of its way to favor all the cases that undermine democracy, while hampering cases that would lift democracy?

Not just on the merits of cases, but in the way the Court goes about hearing cases and making its decisions in the first place."

"As of this writing, the Trump Justice Department has filed 20 emergency applications with the court in its brief tenure, compared with a 16-year total of eight such applications from the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations, or one every other year.

This year, the court granted 18 of Trump’s requests to stay adverse lower court orders, usually over fierce dissents from liberal justices."

"A number of prominent liberal court-watchers, such as law professors Lawrence Tribe and Leah Litman, pundit and author Ian Milhiser, and, at times, Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown-Jackson, have ascribed the conservative majority’s receptivity to Trump shadow docket requests to rank partisanship. Much evidence lends credibility to that charge."

"The order is a resounding win for Trump, further proof that the right-wing majority will find a way to expand his power no matter how flimsy the argument. The administration, in turn, is acting with the hubris of a White House that just crossed a major boundary and was congratulated for it."

"With one weird timing trick, the administration claimed, it could request that the money not be spent close enough to the end of the fiscal year that the funds would simply freeze indefinitely. The theory — called a 'pocket rescission' — is at near comical odds with the text of the Impoundment Control Act, specifically passed to restrict this exact presidential infringement upon Congress’ spending powers."

"President Trump notched a startling legal win Friday evening, as the Supreme Court gave an early stamp of approval to a legal theory so outlandish that experts at one point predicted to TPM it wouldn’t 'get a single vote.'

The Court blessed, at the preliminary stage, Trump’s gambit to zero out money Congress already appropriated."

"The conservative judicial revolution has achieved something remarkable: they’ve used the Constitution to destroy constitutional governance, employed originalism to justify unlimited presidential authority, and transformed legal scholarship into systematic rationalization for the very tyranny the Founders designed our system to prevent."
