Not much drama here. Will be a 4-4 ruling, meaning Obama can continue to run riot over the Constitution. Hillary would just extend Obama’s policies.

You trust Cruz’s friend, Roberts, not to support the globalist agenda?

If it IS a 4-4 decision then it goes back to Texas. Texas wins.

Actually, a split ruling, affirms the lower court ruling, but does not establish precedent.
The 5th circuit ruled in favor of the States, and the federal government appealed to the SCOTUS - that means the the ruling of 5th circuit, that blocked Obama's executive orders on immigration, will be the law of the land.

Actually, if they deadlocked 4-4, it would uphold the lower court ruling which was against Obama. So if I understand it correctly, a 4-4 ruling would be great - although it would probably only apply to the 5th Circuit.

Unless Roberts votes the wrong way.
