Or so the Supreme Court seemed to think, in a very weird—and quite revealing—oral argument the justices heard last week.

For the court’s conservatives, the only consistency is their inconsistency. Still, things rather conspicuously keep going the GOP’s way.

The president’s take on birthright citizenship doesn’t pass legal muster. To hear the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops tell it, it’s a moral affront as well.

The associate justice’s dissent in the tariffs case deserves some extra attention, because it is hopelessly uncoupled from law, history, and the Constitution.

The president was already doubling the budget deficit. With the high court’s tariff decision, he’s tripling it. There’s only one solution: Repeal his “big, beautiful” tax cut.

It may look like the justices made a clean break with the president, but the mess the conservative bloc made for itself raises some major questions.

If the Supreme Court takes up Taylor v. Singleton, it could be the sum of all fears for the most vulnerable Americans.

The Minneapolis nurse’s death at the hands of federal agents has exposed the contradictions at the center of the gun rights debate.

The justices have largely let the president take a wrecking ball to the civil service, but they finally found an agency they deem too sacred for him to desecrate.

The high court ruled that gun restrictions must pass a “history and tradition” test to be valid. Then the state of Hawaii called its bluff.

The public is coming around to the notion that the agency has to be eliminated. Fortunately, this administration and its Supreme Court allies have made that incredibly easy.

The president has used the right-wing bloc’s extreme solicitousness to facilitate new heights of corruption. But there may be lines that the high court won’t cross.

Now that the Supreme Court’s conservative bloc is putting the unitary executive theory to the test, its cracks are beginning to show—and its proponents are flailing.

The Roberts court’s reality distortions have thoroughly disrupted the law, facts, and democracy.

Trump appointee Amul Thapar unleashed an appalling judicial broadside against the constitutional rights of noncitizens that amounts to a wholesale negation of our judicial history.

Alexander Hamilton’s treatise on executive power is one of the conservative legal movement’s favorite texts to quote—and misquote.

A split decision prevented the religious right from creating the first public-funded religious school in Oklahoma—but they’re back to try it again.

Republicans are looking to the justices to remove a key campaign finance restriction. Most of the court’s right-wing majority doesn’t seem to want to play along.

The Roberts court is about to hand the president—and an untold number of financial predators—a massive win.
