As we approach the 20th Anniversary of the Roberts Court, here is my list of the Top Ten Worst Con Law Cases of his Court. Boy was that a hard list to whittle down and no doubt people will disagree with some omissions but the harm to America is truly awful. www.dorfonlaw.org/2025/08/mour...
Roberts Court has ended affirmative action, abortion rights, the establishment clause, federalism, made POTUS above the law and is about to return us to a 1933 understanding of the separation of powers by ruling the NLRB unconstitutional. Umpires folks just umpires. Roberts is heading towards Taney.

New SCOTUS term starts Monday, ends in June long after the midterms. Expect super strong gun rights and religious supremacy to win big, climate change fighters to lose, and the biggest winner, as always with the Roberts Court, will be the GOP and BIG BUSINESS. And Trump will still complain.
Are people ready for the Court’s big religion case this term where the justices are going to require your and my tax dollars to go to private religious schools even if they discriminate against LGBTQ folks. Heller was pay back for Roe (really) and this case is pay back for Obergefell. #notacourt
Just a reminder that the Supreme Court has held that, despite all the botched executions and all the torment around defective and tortuous lethal injections, it is the defendant who has the burden of proof to show the state has access to a less dangerous means of killing. How can they show that???
