SCOTUS let California do it, wonder what the sticking point here is
Ah yes, NY's law is "unadorned racial discrimination"
and Texas's wasn't
another emergency docket speciality, plucked out from another appellate court midstream
SCOTUS blocks a California law blocking public schools from outing students to their parents
https://bsky.app/profile/lawrencehur.../3mg5z6snxms2xA weird trend at the Supreme Court these days is that they often struggle to get four votes to hear a case on the merits docket but easily get to five on emergency applications, sometimes on the same legal questions.
Chief Justice Roberts is feeling the heat
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...top-rcna263927"The problem sometimes is that the criticism can move from a focus on legal analysis to personalities. And you see from all over, I mean, not just any one political perspective on it, that it's more directed in a personal way, and that, frankly, can be actually quite dangerous," Roberts said.
"Personally directed hostility is dangerous and has got to stop," he added.
Trump lays illegal taxes, gets big mad when called out by SCOTUS for it
The Supreme Court cost our country hundreds of billions of dollars. Two of the people that voted for that, I appointed. And they sicken me. They sicken me because they are bad for our
Never crossed my mind. I've been busy with this citizenship case....Good question tho judge. You're really good at this!

Was there a Kalshi bet on when Trump would fall asleep?
Court expansion is stupid, last thing we need is more bureaucrats, but term limits and elections make sense, though the elections should coincide with the presidential election and have the same electoral college rules as the presidential (doesn't have to be the same outcome tbh). No spring time or other offbeat special elections where pretty much only turbocharged liberals turn-out.
The tariffs are awful and so is the wars and Bush-2.0 neocon crap.
reading the tea leaves, looks like there are 3 votes max for the government theory, which is really bad
there's not much in the US cons ution that's clearer than birthright citizenship
Justice Kavanaugh: So this could be a short opinion where we just say Wong Kim Ark was right, this is affirmed?
Cecilia Wang: ...Yes.
Audience: [laughter]
Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.GORSUCH: Do you think Native Americans are birthright citizens under your test?
SAUER: Ah, I think ... so. I have to think that through.
big loser saw he was losing
Donald Trump didn't make it through the entire Supreme Court oral argument on birthright citizenship, leaving before they were over, per White House pool
Trump is an ignoramus
Alito is the American dream—in a single generation, he went from the son of immigrants to sitting on the highest court in the land, where he gets to opine about how more recent immigrants shouldn’t have rights
foundlings and children born without any declared father in the US aren't trivial edge cases
that's potentially a lot of people to render stateless or denaturalize with the stroke of a pen, like Trump's EO purportedly does
and then there's US adoptees
US adoptees can't legally prove we were born to US citizens. Our real birth certificates are sealed and inaccessible. Even in states where you can get a copy, it's not a copy for legal purposes, so it's worthless. It would be easy to strip adoptees' citizenship if the govt wanted to.

(Republicans currently prefer to err on the side of taking people's rights away)
~80 countries have birthright citizenship, 30 without qualification
Also a little ironic, because in general “the rest of the world doesn’t do it this way” is not a consideration conservatives tend to regard as a good policy argument in any other sphere.
