I know -- upholding the CFPB shortly after overturning the lower court's stay in the matter of Louisiana's congressional districts? And _Clarence Thomas_ writing the decision?? You'd almost think some of them were concerned about the Court's reputation. Not Alito and Gorsuch, however. The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals is still a disgrace, but what else is new?

I can't imagine they are actually worried at this point about the court's reputation. I feel like there is something coming along that will make us all go "Ohhh" as to why they did this. I no longer believe they make any decision on clean legal, non-political reasoning.

Some of them might be, but for the rest -- it's just part of the right-wing program, and in their view "right makes right."
