After term jammed with Trump's appeals, Supreme Court's emergency docket may stay hot
The Supreme Court's latest term has spotlighted its emergency docket, also known as the shadow docket.
The Trump administration has repeatedly asked SCOTUS to lift lower court rulings that block its unlawful policies while legal challenges are still pending.
This administration wonβt stop unless the Court stands up and stops enabling executive overreach. www.cbsnews.com/news/supreme...

Last week, the Supreme Court finished its spring term. The results?
π΄More power for billionaires
π΄More wins for MAGA extremists
π΄Fewer rights for everyday people
This is what happens when politicians in robes serve an agenda instead of the Constitution.

Is Emil Bove the most unethical judicial nominee in modern history?
President Trump nominated Emil Bove, his former personal attorney, to be a federal judge on the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals β one of the most powerful judicial roles in the country.
Emil Bove has shown heβs unfit for the bench. He is a Trump loyalist who reportedly encouraged DOJ lawyers to defy court orders. Thatβs not just extreme, itβs unethical.
We canβt allow someone who disregards the rule of law to hold a lifetime judicial seat. #StopBove popular.info/p/is-emil-bo...
