They also ruled on two electoral map challenges recently, throwing both out and making the states redraw in a manner more inclusive to minority districts. They also ruled in favor of the Biden administration on the big immigration case last week.

 

Will the next ruling before the June term ends be to uphold student loan forgiveness?

 

Roberts trying to restore the Court's reputation after the Roe debacle?

Student loans won't be forgiven, theirs 5 pending claims once a decision is made on the current 2.  They will continuously sue and will be a never ending cycle.

For what it’s worth, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch all sided with the independent state legislature argument

 

Of course Alito and Thomas did - they're bound and determined to erode federal and state governments as much as possible.

Erode the federal government at least. 

 

I should have phrased that differently - they always side with state and local government whenever possible while actively sabotaging the federal government.

It feels weird to type this but Kavanaugh will probably play the swing vote on closer contested decisions.

I said when he was sworn in that he would likely surprise us after how embarrassed he was on a national scale.

Actually, Alito technically did not. He only joined Thomas’ dissent as to part I of his opinion. That section only dealt with mootness, not the merits of the case. 

 

Though, I wouldn’t be surprised if he agrees with the independent state legislature doctrine in some manner, just not what Thomas wrote.

Great rulings today not allowing colleges to discriminate in college admissions, and solidifying protections for workers who ask for religious accommodations.

 

Can colleges select for members of the Second ______ Church?

Even if a worker's religion is Muslim? Buddhist? Or will those brown guys on your factory line piss you off when you're required to let them pray to Mecca?

Good news, now employers legally have to give religious accommodations to members of the Satanic Temple.

 

Thats what you were so happy about, right?
