I really, really, REALLY hope that there is a large group of Con Law scholars and lawyers working on what a coherent form of resistance to SCOTUS looks like.
Something like the Originalist project, which took years, but laid an intellectual groundwork that has worked.
Homeless people can be arrested for sleeping, Presidents cannot be arrested for rampant graft and corruption done while in office.
There is no clearer a summary of "conservative 'law and order'" than this.
The current liberal approach has been to pray Dems win every election, and then hold their breath hoping an inimical Court didn't do too much damage, or then-Justice Kennedy would miraculously swing left.
Those easier doctrinal days are dead.
The time of real resistance is here.
No more hand-wringing over what it means to treat the Court as political. No more running away from teaching Con Law after Bush v Gore bc it feels "uncomfortable."
What we need are strong, solid ideas about what principled resistance to a toxic but powerful institution looks like.
The attack needs to be on all fronts:
Doctrinal arguments to help lower courts tell SCOTUS to F off.
Political and historical evidence to support the executive when it wants to ignore SCOTUS lunacy.
Constant judicial and academic bashing of the Justices: make them professionally MIS.ER.A.BLE.
They should be badgered any time they appear in public. They can eat every meal behind their walls and guards. They should not enjoy the company of the people they have sold out.
