The Supreme Court is undermining its own authority
Without legal reasoning applied to an opinion from the Court, you establish no precedent. So the Court is frozen in time. That is how I see the overuse of the shadow docket, or as I call it, the shady docket. It will be up to the Federal judges to hold the line from this branch of government, because the Roberts Court is making itself irrelevant.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
