Jonathan Turley on SCOTUS Rulings: This Is a Huge Win, These Judges ‘Have Been Throwing Sand’ in Many of Trump’s Policies

‘That will presumably now be tapped down if these judges try to circumvent that’

RUSH EXCERPT:
TURLEY: "Thank you Kelly in. I think the first thing the president should do is buy a lottery ticket because he is having one heck of a week. And if I was going to get a lottery ticket it would be today. This is a huge win for him. It does negate what has been a stumbling block. These judges have been throwing sand in the works in many of his policies from immigration to birthright citizenship, to doge cotz. That will presumably now be tapped down if these judges try to circumvent that, I think they will find an even more expedited path to a Supreme Court that is going to continue to reverse some of these, lift some of these injunctions. As you noted, the opinion was really radioactive in this takedown of Justice Jackson. It is rare, I have been covering the Supreme Court for decades, it is rare to see that type of exchange. The important thing to remember is that justice Barrett delivered what was essentially a pile driver but she didn’t do it alone. Her colleagues signed on from this. And I think it is very clear that the majority is getting tired of the histrionics and hysteria that seems to be growing a bit on the left side of the court. But this was really on astonishing takedown by the justice. But it is the hyperbole that is coming out of the dissent that is so notable. The justice in the Maryland case said that giving parents the ability to opt out of a few lessons was going to, quote, create chaos and probably end public education. Justice Jackson saying this could very well essentially be the death of democracy. It is the type of hyperbole that most justices have avoided."
