My friends, the Judge Fairy is not going to wave its magic wand and save us from Donald Trump.

Fascism in the United States will be defeated, if it is defeated at all, at the ballot box.

Just another exciting workday spent hitting F5 on the Supreme Court's website, just in case they decide to weigh in on Trump's crimes or tell us if women who require medically necessary abortions should drop dead.

More on that later case here...

SCOTUS has sat on a huge abortion case for a month now.

Federal law requires most hospitals to perform abortions if necessary to protect the patient's health. Idaho wants SCOTUS to neutralize that law, at least with respect to abortions.

This Ian Millhiser piece is worth reading. I don't know what should happen but as a predictive matter I think there's a good chance SCOTUS will reverse on the due process grounds that Ian discusses. OTOH such a ruling wouldn't provide the finality that the justices probably want.

FWIW, I think the Colorado Supreme Court decision kicking Trump off the ballot is wrongly decided.

He should be kicked off if he is convicted of trying to steal the 2020 election. But Colorado's process was inadequate.

The Supreme Court needs to set the rules for Trump's criminal trials. And it needs to do it NOW.

I have no idea why this GOP-controlled Supreme Court decided not to make life worse for queer children today. But good news is good news.

Some good news: Ian Millhiser reports that the Supreme Court seems unlikely to preemptively declare a wealth tax unconstitutional.

Highlight of today's oral argument in the wealth tax case was Brett (somewhat diplomaticaly) telling Sammy to STFU.

Another highlight was Amy telling Neil to STFU.
