Many court watchers see such fallout in the court’s handling of the abortion case it is now considering. Under the court’s usual procedures, Roberts could have assigned the majority opinion to himself if he joined the court’s five other GOP appointees to uphold the Mississippi law banning abortion at 15 weeks.
“There are certainly signs that this is not really Roberts’ court,” said Thomas Keck, a professor of constitutional law and politics at Syracuse University. “Anybody who says Roberts has lost control of the court simply doesn’t know any Supreme Court history because there have been plenty of chief justices who did not control the court,” Garrow added.
Numerous factors have combined to push the court sharply to the right in recent years. The unexpected death of Justice Antonin Scalia in 2016, Senate Republicans’ decision not to allow former President Barack Obama to fill Scalia’s seat and Trump’s upset victory in the presidential race that year all pushed the court rightward.
Of course you haven’t received information regarding additional circulated draft opinions…the justices figured out who leaked it and froze that schmuck out. They’re not handing those puppies to anyone but each other from here on out.
Why would they? Lol...you didnt think that did you politico?
When men start having monthly periods, getting pregnant, experience carrying babies for nine months, and stay home at the early stage of child's birth, ONLY then they have earned the right to say something. It is called women's reproductive right, NOT MEN's. Get it SCOTUS?
Of course it it. I guarantee its the one that will ultimately be published. We all know who they are now and what they really think of us, why bother changing it?
Civil war 2 incoming
If they rule that way let them never know peace
This Supreme Court is partisan and corrupt. 80% of Americans support Roe.
SCOTUS has become an extension of the GOP. They are no longer a separate apolitical branch of the American government. Prove me wrong.
SCOTUS is untrustworthy! The majority of these judges vote politically not Constitutionally! Shame on them!
Good luck SC! Hopefully you stop baby killers!
Public opinion and an illegal leak should not alter the course of SCOTUS.
Is Ginni still the filing clerk?
The Supreme Court should make a ruling according to the constitution not the people who insist on murdering babies in the womb. It is a sad day in America when people are fighting for such a horrible thing to be legal. God is real, His wrath is very real. Commandment 8 is real
There has been no 'vote'....stop spreading lies.
And there is no reason why the Supreme Court should change its course of repealing Roe v. Wade in spite of all the violent leftists protesting outside the homes of the justices.
The supreme court, the right hand of slavery.
SCOTUS is rattled? Please. Issuing Alito’s opinion will end the US, and that is not an exaggeration.
