I want to reiterate that countless conservative judges issued universal injunctions against the Biden administration, and the Supreme Court never halted the practice. Now, barely five months into Trump's second term, the court puts an end to these injunctions. A brazen double standard.

KBJ, in dissent, calls today's ruling "profoundly dangerous" and an "existential threat to the rule of law." She expresses her "deep disillusionment" with the court and suggests that the conservative supermajority continues to crown Trump a king above law. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

The Supreme Court's conservative supermajority just took away lower courts' single most powerful tool for reining in the Trump administration's lawless excesses, stripping them of authority to issue universal injunctions that block illegal policies nationwide. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Justice Jackson in dissent: "The Court's decision to permit the Executive to violate the Constitution with respect to anyone who has not yet sued is an existential threat to the rule of law."

as for the upshot of the decision, the republican court has put the citizen children of non-citizens in a position similar to that of free blacks during the antebellum period. their right to enjoy the privileges and immunities of american citizenship will vary according to state borders

- Religious exception rulings apply only to the plaintiffs.
- Environmental regulations continue to be enforced despite rulings against them (just not against plaintiffs).
- and on and on.
The left has to use this decision, not just criticize it.
It'll be chaos, but that's what the Justices get.

Here's @hegemommy.bsky.social on why the PP v. Medina decision is a travesty:
"This case is about more than reproductive health care. It’s about whether people on Medicaid—folks who are low income, pregnant, elderly, and/or disabled, have any rights when it comes to their health care at all."

It is endlessly wild to me that, in 2025, so many Politics Knowers simply accept what is put in front of them. "Oh, we're talking about teenage trans girls playing sports, ok!"
Why? Why are we talking about that & not something else? Who decided we're talking about that, and why?
