The Roberts Court has a) took out the central plank of the Voting Rights Act, b) allowed dark money to flood elections/judicial appointments, c) overturned Roe, d) destroyed court deference to administrative agencies, e) given the Prez immunity, they're off to vaycay w/ billionaires to rest up. 1/
Just had a moment of panic thinking maybe more SCOTUS decisions were coming in the morning

Yeah, I know not all those decisions occurred this term and that there are other very awful ones. 2/2

This term was certainly newsworthy in its own right. It really is remarkable how much they can do with a minimal (numeric) docket.

They have a lighter docket to laser focus on installing/entrenching autocrats in power perpetuating their worldview, because us peasants' problems even if it rises to the level of public policy, is not of interest.

62 cases on the docket this term, 61 argued, and 60 decided. Counting loosely, 8 had something to do with the administrative state (agency authorization, discretion, etc.). In case you were wondering what they care about.

Tanned, rested, and ready to rule in favor of the independent legislature for allocating electoral votes.

SCOTUS installed Bush, who was the one who appointed Alito & Roberts. Bush v Gore and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
