Reading Judge Wilkinson and then reading Judge Ho tells you everything you need to know about what has happened to the conservative legal movement over the past 10 years.

Reposted from Raffi Melkonian

CA5 Judge Ho uses a concurrence in death penalty case - not related to Trump in any way I can see on the face- to sketch out his position on the district courts straining to control Trump’s unlawful actions.

No it doesn't. Ho isn't a conservative jurist. He's just another maga legislator

Absolutely.

The Fed Soc people live in another country that they have built in their minds, one that has no relationship to our constitutional democracy.

The aptly named Judge Ho.

Nominative determinism at its finest.

Just more for the portfolio. All he cares about is clawing his way to One First. He has an audience of the White House only. Solely and exclusively performative.

Bears repeating: A federal court ordering an executive branch agency/official to stop acting unlawfully IS democracy in action, and is NOT an obstruction of democratic will. Because elected officials legislated the laws the breaking of which are at issue before the court. See how that works?

Warren Court backlash.

Read his 2006 Green Bag paper on birthright citizenship to track his own personal journey from principled conservative to desperate hack.

I wonder if 2006 Ho was talking to 2025 Ho when he called attempts to undermine birthright citizenship “Dred Scott II.”

I think you should phrase this as "highlights the difference between the conservative legal movement the US has had since the 1970s and the fascist legal movement that has arisen in the last 15 years."
