“how do you see us faring overall?”
I think Trump will win on the immunity since even liberal judges will see the danger in the opposing party being able to stifle the President by threats of litigation on every decision. I also think they will rule for Fischer in the “obstruction of congressional inquiries and investigations” charges. That will benefit Trump and other Jan 6 defendants.
On the Chevron cases (Relentless and Lober), regarding the fishing industry regulations, I know at least three of the judges definitely want to reign in the Chevron deference. How much and how many justices will go with them remains to be seen. That decision is probably going to be written by Roberts so he can figure a way to “thread the needle” and not take too much power from the bureaucracy.
On the second amendment case and domestic violence, I think we’ve hung our hats on the wrong case with Rahami and the Court will rule against him. The tax case, Moore, may also be written by Roberts and he is usually all for taxes so may give the government a win on that one as well.
In the Ohio vs. EPA, I think they will rule for Ohio as a way to reign in the EPA.
In the First Amendment cases, I’m afraid they are going to give the federal government some leeway in limiting disinformation on social media. I hope I’m wrong, but too many Justices are just not strong enough on the First Amendment.
The bump stock ban I think will be overturned. Even the anti-gun justices seem to understand that a stock and it’s operation is not the same as a trigger.
And, I think they are going to rule the Plaintiffs do not have standing to challenge FDA on the mifepristone approval.
I could be wrong on every single prediction above. I often am. LOL!
LOL, I hear that. Good summation regardless. I really hope the majority is leaning farther and farther right to the point where we get everything we want and start to truly right side this ship.
