Here Come De Conservative Judges - 11

"Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye"

On the heels of the Roe v Wade overturning and the "frozen embryo's are kids" ruling by another GOP controlled court, the focus on the issues covered for a long time (since 2009) in this Dredd Blog series increases (Here Come De Conservative Judges, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).

But we are not at the end of this phenomenon, instead there are indications that  we are more likely at the beginnings of it:

"Contentious Supreme Court oral arguments this week offered a reminder that while the public focuses on the Donald Trump election cases, the court’s actions this spring will be equally consequential for an array of rules set in Washington governing American life.

Supreme Court conservatives are accelerating their moves to overhaul the way the federal government protects Americans, whether from air pollution or unfair financial practices.

Although the decisions won’t be released until later this year, the frustration of liberal justices was palpable this week, as their sharp remarks from the bench drew attention to the pattern of the right-wing majority to diminish environmental, public health and consumer safeguards."

(Supreme Court conservatives prepare to rewrite the rulebook, emphasis added).
