Supreme Court 2026 Round Up

[IdeomotorPrisoner]

Already Passed Down and color coded: 

Assylum: Justices sided with the administration in a border dispute that allows officials to continue turning back asylum seekers at the southern border.

Haitians and Syrians: The Court cleared the way for the administration to end deportation and work protections for approximately 350,000 Haitians and 6,000 Syrians under the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program.

United States v. Kyllo (Geofence Warrants): The Court ruled that law enforcement's use of geofence warrants (which track all devices within a specific geographic area during a specific timeframe) constitutes a "search" under the Fourth Amendment, thereby requiring a warrant based on probable cause.

Watson v. Republican National Committee: The Court upheld state laws that allow mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to be received and counted days after the polls close, handing a defeat to Republican efforts to halt the practice. 

Trump v. Cook: The Court blocked President Trump from immediately removing Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook, marking a partial legal setback for the administration's attempts to reshape independent boards.

Trump v. Slaughter: In a 6-3 decision, the Court sided with President Trump, ruling that the president has the authority to fire leaders of independent agencies or commissions without needing to show specific cause.

Tomorrow:

Birthright Citizenship - Sorry, Trump. You're losing the most important one, AND THAT DOESN'T MEAN THE SUPREME COURT IS AGAINST YOU. You appointed 1/3rd of them! They just cant be intimated by you in the front row.

Prediction: 8-1 Against.

Transgender Athlete Ban - No more real Lady Bugs! But the premise of that movie will be ultimately upheld.

West Virginia and Idaho bans upheld. Title IX protections ruled to not restrict states from banning transgender athletes based on biological gender.

Prediction: 6-3 in favor.

Campaign Finance Reform -  No more financial caps on how much money state and national committees can put into a campaign on things like advertisements. 

Prediction: 6-3 in favor.

Results: 

Birthright Citizenship -  Struck down 6-3
Transathlete Ban - Upheld 6-3 
Campaign Finance Limit - Struck down 6-3 

Looks like a pivot on approach is coming for birthright...

We can easily make it up in Congress through Legislation, with the support of the President, that has now been determined during this process. No long and unwieldy Constitutional Amendment is necessary! Congress should start TODAY to work on ending expensive and unfair to our Country, Birthright Citizenship. They will have my Complete and Total Support!

Does anyone else find it humorous that Trump is now turning to congress to get this passed?

Like isn't that what you were supposed to do all along?

Trump might as well respond: 

"The Supreme court is forcing the constitution to only be amended by congress, where does it say the constitution can only be amended by congress? Well, they better do this!"

So... Show of hands of everyone who thinks there is 2/3 congressional support to end birthright citizenship?

Depends on how you want your answer.
i think 2/3 do NOT support the right END birthright citizenship. 
I do not think the way they vote will properly represent their constituents. That time has long passed it seems.
