The thing I learned from this is to not expect better reporting based on facts from the National Review than from the New York Times.

And what facts did the National Review get wrong?

" And what facts did the National Review get wrong?"

You're missing how Borking works. It's done by taking something factual, such as a statement saying that courts are sometimes forced into doing things because the legislature has failed to do their duty, and claiming it's support of judicial activism.

By the way, she happened to be talking about State support of schools in Texas, and the Texas constitution requires the State to provide free public education. The courts requiring the State to meet their constitutional obligations isn't Judicial activism. It's a purely constitutional approach.
