“Surprisingly, the Supreme Court declined to ‘review’ a Fake Case brought against me by a woman I never met (Decades old celebrity photo line, standing with her husband, does not count!),” Trump wrote. “This Case is really against the United States of America, and all it stands for, and should never be allowed to happen […]

After Bruen, states that historically favored greater restrictions on guns rewrote their laws to accommodate the Supreme Court’s ruling. Among those states was Hawaii. One of its changes was to the state’s “default rule” for trespassing. Before Bruen, it was lawful to bring a concealed weapon onto private property that is generally open to the […]

This is largely fueled by the perception that the court is more concerned about serving the GOP than the American people. While Chief Justice John Roberts has lamented that the court […]
Read MoreThat helps explain why the movement Trump unleashed increasingly seems incapable of accepting anything less than Ho-style bombast from its next Supreme Court nominee. The Federalist Society, which guided the movement for decades, was more aligned with the establishment Republicanism that MAGA strangled. It managed to ride the tiger of Trump’s first term and cap […]
Read More“I ‘Love’ Justice Neil Gorsuch! He’s a really smart and good man, but he voted against me, and our Country, on Tariffs, a devastating move,” Trump wrote. “How do I reconcile this? So bad, and hurtful to our Country. I have, likewise, always liked and respected Amy Coney Barrett, but the same thing with her. […]

“We could just take their oil. But, you know, I’m not sure that the people in our country have the patience to do that, which is unfortunate. You know, they want to see it end. If we stayed there, I, you know, I’d prefer just to take the oil. We could do it so easily. […]

On Truth Social late last month, Phillips wrote, “I know what I’ve experienced, I know Who I serve.” Replying to another detractor, Phillips posted, “I have no regrets for my words nor my faith in my Savior, Jesus Christ.

That plan fell apart, however, when Fox News election experts called Arizona for Biden on Election Night and demolished his hopes of proclaiming an early victory. (Whether this plan would have worked anyway is also doubtful, since Trump’s post-election lawsuits were consistently rejected by the courts.) Trump spent the post-election period claiming that he lost […]

Unsurprisingly, the conservative justices apparently agreed with that view. The other parental plaintiffs, however, argued that the California law intruded upon their rights as parents, which they said were guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause. The doctrine that the clause protects unenumerated rights through its reference to “liberty” is known as substantive due […]

Justice Clarence Thomas went even further to make the baffling and novel argument that Congress could not delegate “core legislative power, which is the power to make substantive rules setting the conditions for deprivations of life, liberty, or property” to the executive branch, but could freely delegate the “power to impose duties on imports” and […]

“The Democrats on the Court are thrilled, but they will automatically vote ‘NO’ against ANYTHING that makes America Strong and Healthy Again. They, also, are a Disgrace to our Nation,” he continued. “Others think they’re being ‘politically correct,’ which has happened before, far too often, with certain Members of this Court when, in fact, they’re […]
