One judge even went as far as claiming that USSC shutting down their Lawfare attempts to hobble President were gonna get radicals to kill one of the robed liars-for-hire...
Thankfully the majority on the USSC is seeing through their disingenuous tactics!
Then follow the law judges and don’t be an anti Trump activist.
All those guys were pretty quiet when that Democrat was caught outside Kavenaugh’s house in an assassination plot.
Is he saying somebody is going die, meaning another Republican?
Sounds like he is making another threat. It’s time to remove these anti American judges.
Sounds like those Judges are panicking. They’re trying to intimidate the Supreme Court.
“Judges” get people like Iryna killed everyday
In an investigative report that rocked the legal community, NBC News landed interviews with a dozen federal judges about the Supreme Court’s record of pausing lower court rulings against Donald Trump without explanation on an emergency basis.
The administration repeatedly has sought emergency relief on the Scotus "shadow docket." Scotus has frequently stayed action pending its ruling on the merits. Stays pending a ruling on the merits are not unusual. What is highly unusual is having so many cases referred to the "shadow docket." The number of stays increases with the number of emergency cases being docketed.
Supreme Court Shadow Docket Rulings Signal Turbulent 2025-2026 Term AheadBy GovFacts

Shadow Docket Reveals Deep Court Divisions
While the courtroom was dark, the Court issued rulings through the increasingly powerful and controversial “shadow docket.” This week provided a stark example of how this process works and the divisions it reveals.
What Is the Shadow Docket?
The “shadow docket,” also known as the emergency or non-merits docket, allows the Supreme Court to make decisions outside its regular, transparent process.
Unlike cases on the “merits docket,” which involve extensive briefing, public oral arguments, and lengthy signed opinions, shadow docket matters are handled urgently with far less public visibility.
These cases typically involve emergency requests asking the Court to intervene immediately. Legal tools used are often a stay, which temporarily pauses a lower court’s ruling, or an injunction, which commands a party to do or stop doing something.
Decisions are made quickly, often within days, based on limited written arguments and without public hearings. Resulting orders are typically brief, unsigned, and offer little legal reasoning for the outcome.
Historically, the shadow docket handled routine, procedural matters. Since 2017, its use for making consequential rulings on major policy issues has surged, drawing criticism for lack of transparency and accountability.
NIH Ruling Shows Fractured Court
On Tuesday, September 2, 2025, the Court issued a complex and confusing order from its shadow docket in National Institutes of Health v. American Public Health Association. The case involved a challenge to the Trump administration’s cancellation of nearly $800 million in scientific research grants based on executive orders.
The ruling revealed a deeply fractured Court. In an opaque order with five separate written opinions, the Justices delivered a split decision:
By a 5-4 vote, the Court granted the administration’s request for a stay, halting a lower court’s order that would have required grant payments.
Simultaneously, by a different 5-4 vote, the Court denied a stay of the portion striking down underlying agency guidelines that implemented the executive orders.
The voting alignment was extraordinarily complex. Justice Amy Coney Barrett was the only justice in the majority for both parts. No single opinion commanded a majority, and Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito provided no written explanation for their votes.
This ruling illustrates how the shadow docket can produce outcomes that appear politically driven while obscuring legal logic. The case concerned a highly politicized executive branch action, and the Court’s response was not clear legal directive but a confusing, splintered order offering little guidance to lower courts or the public.
More Emergency Applications Arrive
The week saw further emergency docket activity. On Thursday, September 4, the Trump administration filed another urgent application asking the Justices to block a federal appeals court ruling requiring reinstatement of a fired Federal Trade Commission commissioner.
This filing continues a pattern of the administration frequently turning to the Supreme Court for emergency relief from unfavorable lower court decisions.
News reports indicated the administration was preparing another major case concerning presidential authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which could also arrive on the emergency docket.
These events underscore how the shadow docket increasingly becomes a primary venue for high-stakes political and constitutional battles.
“Sounds like those Judges are panicking. They’re trying to intimidate the Supreme Court.”
If they’re so upset, maybe they should all quit in protest!
(I can dream, can’t I?)
“Judges get people like Iryna killed everyday”
Absolutely 100%.
They also allow all sorts of legal chicanery, like that E. Jean Caroll witch that everyone knows was making up her B$ story to add to the political attacks on President Trump.
In fact, E. Jean Carroll has accused at least seven men of rape over the years...
These include:
Donald Trump
Les Moonves, the former CEO of CBS
A babysitter’s boyfriend
A dentist
A camp counselor
An unnamed college date
An unnamed boss
The courts in NYC need to be shut down, all the judges fired & fumigated to make sure they get all the filthy pests.

Time to start lawfare against the lefties let The divide begin
Are they worried about violent right-wing extremists? Because I’m pretty sure those don’t exist.
Yeah, but that’s different!
Is that TRUE???? I have NEVER heard that!!!
“Is that TRUE???? I have NEVER heard that!!!”
Yes, I know for a fact it is true (as a former in-house reporter @ Manhattan Fed) ~ When the other reporters @ SDNY did the background on her, it was all there, but being a bunch of commie jerkolist they decided to bury it.

These judges are a bunch of damned drama queens. Every federal judge has US Marshal Service protection in their courtrooms and their personal residences.Must be nice.
Now maybe DOJ or a well timed EO eliminating that protection will wake these tyrants up. Other than that, they ALL need to STFU and FOLLOW THE LAW!
Maybe they should just try following the law in their rulings instead of political activism if they are worried how people might react. Getting SCOTUS to rule against the law and Constitution would place these activists in far greater danger.
