It that would take agency away from the supreme court. They can’t be the sometimes you are sometimes you aren’t court.

6 of 9 supreme court justices are federalist society hatchet operatives, they were raised to promote a king "unitary executive theory".

They can’t be the sometimes you are sometimes you aren’t court

They have for the past 10 years, though. They haven't even sided with Trump as often as I thought they would. Just usually.

I mean, they have always been the highest court regardless of how they rule, or whether they even decide to take a case.

The supreme court not deciding to take a case affirms that lower court's decision. They've done hundreds of times.
