Increasingly over recent months and years I and many others have been...

A short but cogent analysis of the unexpectedly not-terrible SCOTUS emerging at the tail end of this term. Josh Marshall is a smart observer of government, and he makes an interesting argument that I think has some real value.

Haha, this aged poorly.

I don’t think it was good when it was new. The SC was never awesome, and now they’re mostly bastards.

You mean the Scotus that overturned Roe v. Wade? No.

I don’t imagine you actually read the article? Otherwise you wouldn’t be arguing against a position that neither the article nor I take.

You’re right I didn’t, and maybe I should have, but I would argue that it’s also just unhealthy for an article to have a title that’s completely antithetical to what it’s actually saying.

First, we should note that the term isn’t over. Major decisions on affirmative action and student debt, among others, are still to come. So it’s premature to evaluate the term before it’s complete.

Yeah, you can say that again
