Supreme Court tees up blockbuster final day of term | CNN Politics
Update: The Supremes voted to limit nationwide injunctions.
Among the cases still pending: the court will decide whether a school district in suburban Washington, DC, burdened the religious rights of parents by declining to allow them to opt their elementary-school children out of reading LGBTQ books in the classroom.
The court will also decide the fate of a government task force that recommends which preventive health care services must be covered at no cost under Obamacare. And it will decide a challenge over Louisiana’s congressional districts that questions how far states may go in considering race when they draw maps to fix a violation of the Voting Rights Act.
But by far the most significant decision is likely to be the one dealing with Trump’s birthright citizenship order.
Brace yourselves, folks.
Today is almost certainly going to be a crummy day.
democracy is on hospice
today might be the date it begins transitioning.
Seems so, but we never had an actual democracy to begin with, or Donald wouldn't have been elected.
That said, federal injunctions have been the only truly functioning portion of checks and balances, so I have no doubt we're going to be full-steam ahead on Donald's Project 1939. It bears repeating: If ICE comes knocking, you didn't see anyone or anything, and in general, don't talk to cops.
