Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a blustering dissent in an ideologically split 5-4 Supreme Court ruling released Friday night in which she accused the five conservative justices who voted in the majority of repeatedly favoring the Trump administration.
The case involved an appeal by the Department of Homeland Security for an injunction in a ruling against the imposition by the administration of a “public charge rule” regarding immigrants in an Illinois case that the Court has already allowed for the other 49 states. (DHS fact sheet on public charge rule.)
Sotomayor’s dissent is in the context of the growing pushback in recent years by President Trump and his administration that has found support from the Court’s conservative majority against the imposition of nationwide injunctions by individual District Court judges against Trump administration actions. The increased imposition of nationwide injunctions has fueled a belief the lower courts are acting politically as part of the anti-Trump resistance.

We the People elected the PRESIDENT to do the will of the people. PRESIDENT TRUMP is fulfilling our wishes by appointing judges who adhere to the U.S. Constitution.
Oh no, is she ever wrong. Chief Justice Roberts said judges are apolitical....remember?
She of course always votes in a block of 4 liberals. No problem there I guess...
It would be great if Corpseburg tipped over 2 months before the November election, so’s Leader McConnell can jam a Federalist Society member like Amy Coney Barrett down the Democrats’ collective throats...

Oh, but wait... didn’t Roberts claim all Judges were fair and balanced and wouldn’t even THINK of having a political agenda?
I accuse her of favoring liberal causes-
I’m hoping for a 6 justice conservative majority which will declare that district court justices have no authority to issue nationwide injunctions about anything. That district judge rulings have no impact beyond the actual parties to the case.
When Republicans do it, it's "Party Before Country"...
Die RBG die! Die like a unborn fetus.
She is an open and notorious racist. Effer.
All the more reason to re-elect Donald.
This La Raza supporting Racist shouldn’t even be on the court, let alone be a Judge.
