It’s an AP article, so it has more detail of Justice Non-Biologist’s concerns than it has of the 8 justices who signed the majority opinion.

Ketanji basically calls a 6-1 ruling “ legally dubious”

By now a lot lot lot of people are thinking Ketanji is legally dubious

So nice that these clowns let the executive run the branch he was elected to run.

All the good news coming as Trump is starting to go wobbly and have second thoughts. This, the slow down may end up having the desired effect. Well shall see

"...Trump is starting to go wobbly and have second thoughts..."

Can you provide any links directly attributable to Trump's "going wobbly" that don't come from Axios, CNN, NYT, WAPO, BlueSky, etc?

And I am curious-"wobbly" in what aspect?

I am asking you these questions, wiseprince, because I don't see "wobbly" in Trump. How are you quantifying "go wobbly and have second thoughts"?

What direct evidence do you have for that assertion?
