The Supreme Court on Friday backed President Donald Trump’s request to scale back lower-court orders that have for months blocked the administration’s ban on automatic citizenship for the U.S.-born babies of undocumented immigrants and foreign visitors, ruling that those nationwide injunctions went too far.
The 6-3 decision, with the liberal justices dissenting, largely strips federal judges of a powerful tool they have used to temporarily halt many of Trump’s policies nationwide while litigation is pending. It will reshape the early stages of the judicial process when it comes to challenging executive action.
Keep 'em coming, stupids.

Turley: The Chilling Jurisprudence Of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson
For most citizens, the release of Supreme Court opinions is about as exciting as watching paint dry, particularly in a case dealing with the limits of district courts in issuing universal injunctions.
Yet Friday’s Trump v. CASA case included a virtual slugfest between Justice Amy Coney Barrett and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
The decision was one of the biggest of the term. The Court moved to free the Administration from an onslaught of orders from district judges seeking to block the President in areas ranging from the downsizing of government to immigration.
However, it was the departure of the normally staid court analysis that attracted the most attention.
The tenor of Jackson’s language shocked not just many court watchers, but her colleagues.
It seemed ripped from the signs carried just a couple of weeks earlier in the “No Kings” protests.
... and an attempted assassination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
There was also a change in the tenor of the exchanges in oral argument and opinions between the justices.
Recently, during the argument over the use of national injunctions in May, Chief Justice John Roberts was clearly fed up with Justice Sotomayor interrupting government counsel with pointed questions and commentary, finally asking Sotomayor, “Will you please let us hear his answer?”
This hyperbole seemed to border on hysteria in the Jackson dissent. The most junior justice effectively accused her colleagues of being toadies for tyranny.
It proved too much for the majority, which pushed back on the overwrought rhetoric.
While the language may seem understated in comparison to what we regularly hear in Congress, it was the equivalent of a virtual cage match for the Court.
Some of us have argued that our system is working just as designed, particularly as these issues work through the courts. The courts have ruled for and against this Administration as they struggle with the difficult lines of authority between the branches.
Liberals who claim “democracy is dying” seem to view democracy as getting what you want when you want it.
It was, therefore, distressing to see Jackson picking up on the “No Kings” theme, warning about drifting toward “a rule-of-kings governing system”
She said that limiting the power of individual judges to freeze the entire federal government was “enabling our collective demise. At the very least, I lament that the majority is so caught up in minutiae of the Government’s self-serving, finger-pointing arguments that it misses the plot.”
The “minutiae” dismissed by Jackson bhappen to be the statutory and constitutional authority of federal courts. It is the minutiae that distinguish the rule of law from mere judicial impulse.
Justice Barrett clearly had had enough with the self-aggrandizing rhetoric. She delivered a haymaker in writing that “JUSTICE JACKSON would do well to heed her own admonition: “[E]veryone, from the President on down, is bound by law.” Ibid. That goes for judges too.”
She added, “We will not dwell on JUSTICE JACKSON’s argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries’ worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself. We observe only this: JUSTICE JACKSON decries an imperial Executive while embracing an imperial Judiciary.”
In other words, the danger to democracy is found in judges acting like kings. Barrett explained to her three liberal colleagues that “when a court concludes that the Executive Branch has acted unlawfully, the answer is not for the court to exceed its power, too.”

Poor Jack. He says no matter what I post explaining how the birthright decision isn't what he thinks it is, is because his crybaby heart can't take it. Yup, facts make Jack cry.
I'd add to that Gilligan; your boys' budget amounts to being the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor, you Jack, to the rich, him Jack, in history. Wow, are you stupid. And so is anybody else who thinks it isn't.

Appeals Court Allows Trump Administration To Fire USIP Board Members
Monday, Jun 30, 2025 - 10:25 AM
Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times,
The Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has overturned a lower court ruling that had prevented the Trump administration from restructuring the leadership at the Institute of Peace (USIP), according to a June 27 order.
The issue stems from a Feb. 19 executive order from President Donald Trump declaring USIP “unnecessary” and calling for its activities to be “eliminated to the maximum extent consistent with applicable law.”
USIP was set up by Congress as an independent nonprofit corporation, received federal and private funding, and was tasked with promoting peace via diplomacy and education. USIP’s board of directors is made up of 15 members, three of whom are “ex officio”—they hold their seats due to their positions in the federal government. The remaining 12 are appointed members of the board, designated by the president, and confirmed by the Senate.
On March 14, Trent Morse of the White House Presidential Personnel Office terminated all appointed members. The same day, the three ex officio members signed a resolution removing the board’s president.
On March 17, the Department of Government Efficiency took over USIP headquarters. The administration eventually fired most of the USIP staff and canceled all of its programs. Later, the General Services Administration took control of USIP headquarters.
The next day, USIP and several of its terminated board members sued the government over the firings.

Me and my old man were hoping Trump was going to go the other way with this and just fast-track the whole thing to its logical conclusion.
Wouldn't it have been great if Trump and Musk funded a scholarship to create an all boys woman's college basketball team called the Teslas, and just watch as they utterly destroy any of the competition that was brave enough to even step on that court against them for a minute? Even better if they roped in actual dudes who were really trying to play girls sports and not fake teams like on the barely funny comedy Lady Ballers.
I think we really missed a HUGE opportunity to show everybody exactly what it was they were voting on with this issue, and I couldn't think of a better way to have done it than by trolling everyone like that.
It's way too late for that now. The moment is gone.

Yeah... I'm not talking about the court fight though. The Moment, is gone.
Too late to do it this year, and by next year I don't think it's going to be much of an issue anymore. I'd been tracking and messaging just how far the LGBTQIAC3PO+ "movement" had fallen out of favor, from its insane in-your-face peak during the summer of 2021 to the virtual crickets you saw this year, with no companies even bothering to put rainbow logos out for even a day on Twitter or other social media. Even the most lefty of lefty writers out there are screaming about how the "T" was taken out of LGBT this year (along with everything else they added on to the LGB).
Would have been perfect if they did that this year, but there won't be any point by next year. They're all capitulating, and those that haven't yet will.
It's just not the Win that could have been is all. There's a lot of hate for that movement, even within the Democratic Party who won't admit it... simply because it was always a 90/10 or worse issue for them, but I don't think they realized that until they lost their control over the Media. Most of them have backed away from it silently, with the only holdouts being the same people who are fighting for the "rights" of lawless criminal illegal alien invaders.
Had Trump/Musk done what I was talking about, there would be so much more animus against men playing in women's sports than there is today, and nobody would have ever let that happen again after seeing an entire season of college age girls getting beat up by college age men for 5 months straight.
