@varadmehta From all things I know, Congress only needs to authorize it if federal funds are used. That’s not the case here, so idk what the judge is talking, unless I’m missing something, since it’s privately funded.

We might have a candidate for the first court order that Trump ignores.

Federal judge orders Trump pause construction on White House ballroom dlvr.it/TRpHxw

@cockamaymee @earlyvotedata @scotus_wire It’s a big case, there are likely a lot of back and forth happening with opinions behind the scenes. They aren’t as instantaneous as people think. I’d be shocked if we had it before June.
English
@earlyvotedata @scotus_wire Yep. They are obviously stalling that one. Can’t imagine who the holdups are.

🚨 The Supreme Court has scheduled an opinion issuance day for Tuesday, March 31st at 10:00am ET.
English
@brian_bsupton @lmaoidkbruh @_elleZee_ @mattxiv Per law, they are not *required* to have it, but it can be given if a possible threat is present. It’s a common practice for them to have it, Biden’s grandkids also had it.
English
@lmaoidkbruh @_elleZee_ @mattxiv According to the Secret Service, Presidential grandkids are NOT entitled to potection.

@scotus_wire Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’ve never heard of a case of the Supreme Court that was decided and then reheard/decided again the next term. They usually do re-hearing for cases when they need more information and defer the opinion in the case until next term.
English
There IS a rehearing function at the Supreme Court under Rule 44. It's just rarely used and difficult to obtain.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Trump on the Supreme Court's tariffs ruling: "Is a Rehearing or Readjudication of this case possible???"
English
@scotus_wire Yeah, but I could argue that that one wasn’t as complex as these two are. They’ve handled gay marriage before, so it’s not exactly on the same scope.
English
Justice Jackson has now written twice from the October sitting after today’s opinions.
That leaves Justices Alito and Gorsuch likely to write the last two outstanding opinions from the October sitting: race-based redistricting under the VRA and conversion therapy bans.
English
@kbo_coyote @BlueBoxDave Technically speaking, it can be considered attempted murder if two elements are established:
1). Intent to murder.
2). A direct, substantive step to pursue the crime.
Same standards with the Kavanaugh incident. The victim doesn’t need to be present for it.
English
@BlueBoxDave No attempt was made. Be a little be less dramatic. The POTUS wasn't even in the state.
English
An attempted assassination of the President of the United States is barely a story. Because we’ve come to expect it.
English
@scotus_wire Not a surprising ruling, the only surprise for me is that it came this early with how many concurrences and dissents there are. I believe it just tells you one thing, even if their opinion is big, the Supreme Court can decide how long it wants to take on each opinion.
English
🚨 In a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court STRIKES DOWN President Trump's tariffs, holding that the President CANNOT use the IEEPA and Congress alone has the taxing power.
Roberts delivered the opinion/judgment of the Court. Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh dissent.
English
@GovernorGa_ I ask this genuinely and not to sound mean but to be clear, do you have any claim to being a Republican or are you left leaning centrist? The latter is where I am, I’m just not as vocal on here about it.
English
It’s crazy that Trump getting shot was the point for me to stop supporting him kinda
Blake Kresses@BlakeKresses
I have a very difficult time believing that the people who turned on Trump after seeing this are actually ensouled.
English
@scotus_wire Very unusual, I’ve never seen them schedule three in advance, usually they schedule one after the first one’s done.
English
🚨 The Supreme Court has also scheduled opinion issuance days for February 24th AND 25th at 10:00am ET.

🚨 The Supreme Court has scheduled an opinion issuance day for Friday, February 20th at 10:00am ET.

@King_kVAR @nostalgiafkninc Saving this for future reference to other actual serious posts tho.
English
@King_kVAR @nostalgiafkninc Biden SS, Biden DOJ, and Biden FBI but somehow he was able to convince them all to participate and not say a word….wow….if you believe that, I don’t think I even need to sell you the bridge in Brooklyn.
English
@scotus_wire I read this a dozen times over again and I still can’t understand exactly what it’s preventing that isn’t already prevented by federal law.
English
🚨 A federal judge in Minnesota has issued a TRO enjoining Trump administration officials from "destroying or altering" evidence related to the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal officers.
English
@scotus_wire If the Supreme Court does take this case up, I don’t see how it would be decided before the midterms, because they are already filling out the rest of their term docket. They might issue a stay, but even then it’s a tricky situation.
English
🚨 The United States has filed a brief asking the Supreme Court to BLOCK California's Proposition 50 congressional map.
English
@scotus_wire Typically this would be a good indicator of some positive news coming, but we all know Roberts is a slippery slope, I remember when there was a month sitting down to just Thomas not having an opinion, with one of the liberal justices having been assigned two opinions instead.
English
Here's some SCOTUS math: after today's rulings, 4 cases remain from the October sitting, two of which are major ones (conversion therapy and VRA/race-based redistricting).
Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch are the only justices who have yet to author an opinion from this sitting...
English
@scotus_wire You know it seems like a pretty easy case, but I’m assuming and this is just based on past history that Justice Sotomayor and Jackson started writing their dissent immediately after this case was posted to the docket.
English
Busy day at the Supreme Court tomorrow; the Court will announce one or more opinions and will hear argument in Wolford v. Lopez, a challenge to a Hawaii law that bans firearms on private property open to the public unless the owner expressly allows guns.
English
@SpencerHakimian Spencer, you have absolutely no idea how the Supreme Court works. Some decisions take time and you can’t just predict what case will be announced when.
English
Notice how every time Trump is at the Supreme Court they intentionally delay it and issue their ruling as slow as humanly possible?
That’s on purpose.
English
@varadmehta They’ll really starts to get creative with their headlines: “BREAKING: Supreme Court to rule on tariffs at the opinion day they schedule next or the next.”
English
LOLOLOLOL at all the suckers who fell for it again. Can’t wait for all the tweets the next time SCOTUS schedules an opinion release that TRULY REALLY BREAKING THE TARIFFS OPINION IS COMING THIS TIME FOR REAL WE PINKY SWEAR.
English
@scotus_wire Not even within minutes of knowing they’d have another opinion day.
The Kobeissi Letter@KobeissiLetter
BREAKING: The US Supreme Court is expected to release its ruling on the legality of President Trump's tariffs on January 14th.
English
🚨 The Supreme Court has scheduled another opinion issuance day for Wednesday, January 14th at 10:00am ET.
English
@KobeissiLetter People said that about the Supreme Court today, I believe the moral of the story is nobody knows what opinions will be announced until they are announced.
