28. The explanation sounds reasonable

Sat Nov 8, 2025, 01:56 PM

Saturday

Until you bring up the shadow docket.
SCOTUS has been more than happy to rule in the favor of the rich and powerful without giving any justification or an explanation of any kind.

But when it comes to feeding the elderly, the handicap and children, SCOTUS suddenly feels compelled to follow the process.

This is not an attack on Justice Jackson but just pointing out that this court had alternatives. Chief Justice Roberts could have done something different. If we have learned anything these last 10 years is that where there is a will, there is a way. They just don't give a shit.
