Court Term Reflects Reagan, Not Trump, Priorities
Narrative Analysis: Glittering Generalities
Bloomberg Supreme Court reporter Greg Stohr says the court's latest term largely advanced long-standing conservative legal priorities rooted in the Reagan era, while rejecting several Trump-specific initiatives, including broad tariff powers. Joining David Gura and Christina Ruffini on Bloomberg This Weekend, Stohr says the justices left unresolved questions over presidential authority to remove Federal Reserve officials, signaled potential future debate over birthright citizenship and agreed to hear major challenges to state assault weapons bans next term.

Another Sad Trombone
Well, it’s gold-ish The New York Times: The Supreme Court on Monday declined a request by President Trump to review a 5 million civil judgment against him after a jury found in 2023 that he sexually abused and defamed the writer E. Jean Carroll. The announcement by the justices did not include any reasoning, and no public dissents were noted. Wanna go for two? A second case that arose out of Ms. Carroll’s allegations also could be headed to the Supreme Court. In January 2024, a separate jury ordered Mr. Trump to pay Ms. Carroll 83.3 million in damages for defaming her in 2019 after she accused him of a decades-old rape. Lawyers for Mr. Trump have said they plan to ask that the justices also hear that case. Of course, they will. Lawyers for Ms. Carroll asked the justices to reject the president’s petition. In a brief to the justices, lawyers for Ms. Carroll wrote that the Supreme Court “routinely declines” to take up cases “when the questions presented are irrelevant to the outcome below.” They added, “such is the case here.” Now to make Trump himself irrelevant.

Mike Johnson Is 'Very Disappointed' The Constitution Still Applies
House Speaker Mike Johnson got the news the way the rest of us did: live, in real time, mid-sentence. He was in the middle of fielding a question on birthright citizenship at his GOP leadership presser Tuesday when reporters interrupted to read him the Supreme Court's ruling. His response was a flat, deflated Oh dear — followed by a more polished but equally grim I'm very disappointed in that outcome after a loud, long groan accompanied by an eyeroll. The Court ruled 6-3 that Trump's day-one executive order stripping citizenship from children born on U.S. soil to undocumented or temporary-resident parents violates the 14th Amendment — a constitutional guarantee that's stood for 160 years. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the majority opinion, joined by Justice Amy Coney Barrett and the Court's three liberal justices. Justice Samuel Alito, writing alone, called it one of the most important decisions in the history of the Court and a serious mistake. On an aside, sort of, I'm wondering if Alito's wife, Martha-Ann Alito, is now displaying her American flag upside down again. Mine is, but for very different reasons. Back to the subject. read more
