The hour is upon us

Corner Post is first, party-line case judicially extending the statute of limitations for APA challenges out to the heat death of the universe. Barrett writes, Jackson dissents. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

From Jackson’s dissent. I believe the way this works in combination with Loper-Bright is really insidious, but ofc it’s not gonna get the headlines.

2nd up is Netchoice—the judgments are unanimously vacated and sent back. Kagan writes with 6 joiners (though Jackson skips a few parts). Several conservatives pen concurrences in the judgment. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

So Trump will be the last case of the term. We’ll know soon enough, but I’m guessing Roberts wrote it.

Roberts rules for Trump. Absolute immunity for “official acts.” Vacated and remanded. Party line case. Both Sotomayor and Jackson dissent. Fuck this. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

Okay, it’s absolute immunity for official acts that are “within [the president’s] exclusive and preclusive authority” and presumptive immunity for all official acts. Corrupting the DOJ — absolute immunity (which boggles my mind). Pressuring Pence — presumptive immunity.

Sotomayor points out why this distinction between absolute and presumptive immunity that the majority introduces is essentially meaningless.

Is this the one that made her go back to her chambers and cry?
