Alarm over Supreme Court's 'undeniable' support of Trump over and over again

Since President Donald Trump returned to the White House in January, the conservative supermajority on the Supreme Court has handed the Trump administration wins in 90 percent of cases on its emergency docket, according to a new comprehensive analysis of rulings across the courts system since inauguration day.

Led by Chief Justice John Roberts and packed with three Trump nominees and two other conservative justices, the Supreme Court rightwing bloc has favored the Trump administration in 21 out of 23 cases on its “shadow docket,” which allows the court to rule on urgent requests without oral arguments and with limited briefings, according to a new report from Court Accountability, a judicial advocacy group.

By contrast, Trump won only 40 percent of approximately 450 district court cases and circuit court dispositions reviewed.

As the Trump administration looks to execute executive orders on issues including deploying the National Guard in major cities, deporting student visa holders for political speech, and limiting birthright citizenship, the Department of Justice is “going straight to the shadow docket whenever an appeals court stands in the administration's way of defying acts of Congress,” said Mike Sacks, senior adviser with Court Accountability.

“Supreme Court precedent reflects this administration's confidence that they have the Roberts Court in their pocket,” Sacks continued.


“This administration has no patience for the usual appellate process and wants to operate at its full anti-constitutional capacity, and this Supreme Court has virtually every time given this administration the green light to do exactly that.”
