Roberts Joins Dissent Blasting Activist Conservatives On The Court For Abusing The Shadow Docket

In a speech at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library Monday, Trump Justice Amy Coney Barrett previewed the horrors to come from the extremist Supreme Court majority. She attempted to posit that the increasingly destructive opinions the majority has issued and will issue are not aimed at imposing a “policy result,” and that Americans should wait and “read the opinion” to learn why the court took those controversial actions.

Two days later, from the shadow docket, Barrett and four of her colleagues gutted states’ ability to protect their own waters, and with it put the 1972 Clean Water Act in jeopardy. Without issuing an opinion for any of us to read. The shadow docket ruling comprises one paragraph reinstating a Trump environmental rule that limits states’ ability to block projects that could pollute rivers and streams pending an appeals court hearing. There is no decision to read in the policymaking move by five conservative justices.


“That renders the Court’s emergency docket not for emergencies at all,”

Yeah Justice Kagan, but Trump got a big payday by that decision. Looks like the fishing for the good ol boys in looseeana just took a turn for the worse.
you realize the case was brought by the states against the fed. The states wanted the trump era EPA rule and the court granted their stay because the xiden admin would do then harm. now everyone gets their day in court…why does due process bother you?
 
Kagen made that claim…the majority of rhe court disageed…said the States would be harmed by the federal govts action

So, if the majority of the court rules a certain way, you never have an issue with the ruling since it was the majority?

The extremist journalistic ideologue Joan McCarter writes:

The fact that Roberts, the conservative chief justice, signed onto Kagan’s dissent criticizing the majority proves one thing: The court’s legitimacy isn’t just in question, it’s lost. If the institution is going to be saved, it has to be wrested from the control of the extremist ideologues. It has to be expanded.​

The extremist judicial ideologue Kagan writes:

The request for a stay rests on simple assertions—on conjectures, unsupported by any present-day evidence, about what States will now feel free to do.​

The mild mannered and ever astute Ringtone writes:

What states will now feel free to do?! Dear God in heaven! Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!​
