#SupremeCourt shows it’s still eager to lick #trump’s balls in broad daylight.

The Hill: The Trump administration asked the #SupremeCourt to lift a judge’s ruling ordering the government to return a man mistakenly deported to El Salvador by the end of Monday. the Justice Department (DOJ) said it can’t comply with the ruling and called for the high court’s emergency intervention.

“This order sets the United States up for failure,” Solicitor General D. John Sauer wrote. “The United States cannot guarantee success in sensitive international negotiations in advance, least of all when a court imposes an absurdly compressed, mandatory deadline that vastly complicates the give-and-take of foreign-relations negotiations. The United States does not control the sovereign nation of El Salvador, nor can it compel El Salvador to follow a federal judge’s bidding,” Sauer continued.

By default, the administration’s request will go to Chief Justice John Roberts, who handles emergency appeals arising from the 4th Circuit. He could act on the application alone or refer it to the full court for a vote. The request came minutes before a 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals three-judge panel unanimously denied the administration’s bid to lift the judge’s order.

#Trump asks #SCOTUS to help him break the #law, again.

Trump asked the #SupremeCourt to block a court order to return a deportee from #ElSalvador’s #CECOT that his admin admitted to deporting by mistake.

Judge Paula Xinis gave the Trump admin until midnight Monday to return #KilmarAbregoGarcía, who was deported despite a court order forbidding it.

The targeting of state supreme courts by special interests and billionaires can leave the public with the impression that justices are no different than any politician: devoted to serving their political allies, court observers say.

#SCOTUS allows #Trump officials to freeze #teacher training grants over *#DEI*

A divided #SupremeCourt on Fri cleared the way for the admin to at least temporarily freeze up to $65M in #educational grants designed to address #TeacherShortages, which the govt says fund programs that promote #diversity, #equity & #inclusion [as they should, though the Trump admin’s definition of DEI is humanity].

#NorthCarolina's #Republican majority Court of Appeals sided w/the GOP candidate in a suit contesting last year's State #SupremeCourt #election.

The decision could result in ~64k ballots being thrown out, handing the election to the Republican instead of the Democratic Justice who won.

The case will likely be appealed.

#PlannedParenthood CEO on #SupremeCourt Case, TitleX & More

@ianbremmer speaking as a man who sold his soul, #republican party, #democracy, over the course of decades of dis-service to constituents and all #Americans who have suffered because he was bought & owned decades before #trump. #neverforget this is the man who served the will of extremists and #fascists to seat #supremecourt justices so #unethical, incompetent and venal, that our #democracy and the #judiciary will never recover. Time is long past to pander to the rich & powerful. #FreeAmerica

Elon Musk spent $250 million to buy a national election for Donald Trump. He attempted to buy another election to fill a vacant Supreme Court seat with $25 million in a single state election.

Wisconsin told him a resounding "NO!" that he cannot buy another seat of power.

"Let that sink in."

Curious about political tactics? President Elmo's recent Green Bay rally has sparked controversy over his endorsement of Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel and plans to distribute funds to promote his petition. Initially framed as rewards for voting, the scheme faced backlash over potential bribery implications. With checks handed to notable figures, scrutiny increased when a video exposed ulterior motives, leading to a retraction by Musk's America PAC.

I’m wondering if what happened in the #Wisconsin #supremecourt #election is a sign of a larger down stream referendum on what is happening in the current Trump administration and its agenda, or if this was a one-off event?
