SCOTUS rules against Trump administration in challenge to decision to end #DACA program
- Thread starter Sr Kitsune
- Start date
Hey that's not fair, Jabba the Hutt is way more coherent than Donald Trump.
Roberts is decent 1 out of every 10 cases.
Still have to ensure Biden gets elected in November to save the court. Alito and Clarence need to fuck off ASAP.

Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh all filed partial concurrence/dissents, so I'll be interested to see what aspects of the majority they agreed with.
He's starting to accumulate unexpected rulings, at this point I think he deserves some credit for not being an ideological stooge.
Yup - I'm actually not too concerned about say, this Supreme Court invalidating Biden-passed laws left and right, as I feel Roberts at least goes by a consistent rationale for even his more controversial decisions and doesn't just make shit up to fit his priors (Kavanaugh, Alito and Thomas are far more nakedly partisan in that regard). However, if RBG (or Breyer, who is also very old!) goes before she's able to be replaced by another liberal, I'd be far more worried.
Eyes on the prize.
That was never really in doubt. Of course they have the power to end it if they go through the appropriate process. It is an executive construct to begin with
Also means we really need to win in November because they're going to try this again.
Between this and the Title VII ruling, it's so nice having a break from the constant drip of misery this year has brought; however, does anyone else feel like Roberts is strategically casting himself as a swing vote, so that when the Court inevitably rules against abortion, he can feign impartiality? Perhaps I'm paranoid, but I will never put any faith in the conservative justices.
There's not enough time before November. That's all you really need to know.
Not AS soon as possible. They need to do this on Jan 21, 2021.
Makes sense - the president has wide latitude on immigration issues. And the original breaking news cited how arbitrary the removal was. Roberts I'm sure strained to find those issues so he could vote against the administration.
Would be a bold strategy for Trump to attempt to try it again. Ending a popular program like that and throwing millions of people out of the country when they only know the US. All the more reason he needs to be removed in November.
I mean, yea.
I assume he won't have enough time in office left to try again.
Positive ruling. Although we could have done without the Trump administration's decision to terminate DACA was not motivated by an intent to discriminate part.
The sanctity of the court is more important to Roberts than any political motivation.

More that he just has a good eye for the decisions that are going to be historical and doesn't want to be on the wrong side of history for those ones.

Ideally. Kavanaugh being on the court instead of Merrick Garland is a stain as well.
And he doesn't want the court on the wrong side either.
We kinda lucked out with Roberts, as hard an idea as that may be to wrap our heads around.
