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.

All I hear is, “blah blah racism blah,” from this intemperate affirmative-action justice.
Thank you for that info. Not the last time I will be humbled on this site. And I appreciate every one of them.
I originally thought the author misspoke and meant "blistering" but after reading her words "blustering" is correct.
The only way she’s retiring is when she’s carried out of the supreme court on a stretcher with a blanket over her head.
Trump needs to instruct the DOJ to finally expose the fraud Obozo and remove from the SCOTUS his two judges.

Doubt that even PDJT has the stones to do that, and even if he does, he would first have to appoint an Attorney General that has the stones to actually perform the duties of that office.
She is also dumb. The Republicans chickened out when didn’t try to stop her being on the Supreme Court.
You wouldn’t believe all the hysterical leftists on Twitter praising her for being a patriot, etc. They are predicting the end of our country with Trump taking over as an autocrat. What dolts.
I personally feel sorry for her and RBG. Thats why I’m sending the wise latina 20 pounds of candy and pestrami sandwiches with extra cheese to RBG.
“Justice” Sotomayor is the quintessential activist judge whose chosen role is a legislative one.
Welcome to “elections have consequences”
Lucky I wasn't tipping my wine glass when I read that...
If you start the artillery barrage too soon before the actual massed infantry assault, your people will be slaughtered...
