    This will be controversial, but I think the Supreme Court made the right call on the two big 5-4 decisions (travel ban and faith-based pregnancy centers) handed down today.

        Matt, if the travel ban was truly based on national security, then I’d agree. Given Saudi Arabia funded most 9/11 terrorists, why isn’t SA included in ban? Too many times Trump’s desire to “ban Muslims” was explicit. Lawyers ‘doctored’ language but a rose by any other name...

        Kennedy’s concurrence in NIFLA is outstanding, especially the last few sentences.

        I still have a problem with the travel ban ruling. If a president stated he wanted to punish Mormons, then signed an executive order that singled out the state of Utah, how would that not be religious discrimination?

        Decisions based on law rather than ideology are such a bitch for ideologues to swallow. That was part of the idea behind creating the Judicial Branch in the first place.

        Too many people seem to not understand the difference between disagreeing with a policy but agreeing with the legal structure that allowed that policy to be made. The travel ban decision falls with the latter. Agreeing with SCOTUS decision is not an endorsement of the policy

        I have to read the travel ban decision, but the 'ban' that went to S.Ct. was Trump's 3rd try and was watered down quite a bit, notwithstanding his constant racist remarks. And that might be the worse aspect of the decision: he's free to keep up the offensive tweets w/impunity

        That’s because you’re a right wing Republican. Just read as “moderate” in comparison to straight up fascists like Trump.

        In both cases, it’s religious preference masquerading as keeping Americans safe.

        It's not controversial. It's partisan bias.

        If this decision had come down under a different admin I would agree. But Trump has made his feelings on minorities very clear which makes me dread what’s to come. I fear he will feel empowered to use this decision to further divide the country and ultimately not safer at all.

        I do agree. @scotus didn’t decide that Trump’s Muslim van was right, or good. They only said that it was within his powers as POTUS.
