According to the SCOTUS website, the briefs were filed last month. Does anyone know where I can find them? Or are they not released until after the decision is made?

What circuit is Utah in? If it's the 9th, will they repeat the same reasoning as in Perry v. Schwarzenegger?

That's three opposite of what happened - Sotomayor ruled that you need to go before a judge, nit use a fishy excuse.

I don't know - extending federal authority to a non-originalist 100 miles from an airport is something that would set Thomas (maybe Roberts?) off.

Doesn't "the border"also include a 100 mile radius around every international airport?

An apolitical supreme court is a modern-day myth.

The courts in Dredd Scott, Plessy, Chinese exclusion, Lochner and Wickard were all openly political.

Prison slavery is restricted to corporations and possibly the extremely wealthy.

Prior to WWII half of the January 6th rioters could have had a black man cleaning their houses for no pay.

Easy, any one that wins because of a 5-4 decision with Gorsuch being one of the votes of the majority should be considered illegitimate. He was the stolen seat and if he's a deciding factor in the vote, it's illegitimate.

Even McGirt?

Looks like there are three cases left: Abitron Austria GmbH v. Hetronic Int'l, about international enforcement of trademarks, and the two student-debt relief cases, Biden v. Nebraska and DoE v. Brown.

Did they issue the 303 Creative (gay wedding website case) decision?

Also, freddie deboer probably articulates the other problem i have with (especially elite) schools like harvard better than most, they're literally not helping the kids affirmative action was purportedly meant to help. They're self interested institutions who care more about themselves more than anything else, yet i'm supposed to pretend that them admitting the kids of a Nigerian doctor is the same thing as helping a black kid who is directly descendent of slavery living in the projects of Baltimore, it's insulting to everyone's intelligence:

I'd rather they just tax the ever living gently caress out of Harvard's gigantic endowment fund and give it to inner city schools rather than having elite institutions playing charades and pretending that they're fighting centuries of systemic racism.

Coney Barrett made an offhand comment during oral argument that it had been 20 years since Grutter, which had come 25 years after Bakke, and it didn't look like affirmative action has done much to meaningfully affect academic opportunities for POC over 45 years.

She almost got it, maybe next time.

What did ACB "almost get"? I don't follow you here.



That America is built on a system of white supremacy and that we need major structural changes, not just affirmative action at highly ranked colleges like Harvard and UNC and Michigan and Berkeley

I disagree. I think they would have made the same ruling. That was just icing on the cake for them.

The court loves quoting the opposition.

Gorsuch used a Norfolk Southern press release about how much business they do in Pennsylvania to establish personal jurisdiction in that case.

E: The Speaker of the House is always going to claim that Congress has more power than the president.

Who would nominate these leftist judges? Obama and Clinton were committed to the lie of centrism.

Bush and Trump wanted to fill the judiciary with partisan extremists.
