The end (of the Supreme Court term) is nigh. This week, Amicus goes into June Opinionpalooza mode with some meta-analysis of what to look out for as the Supreme Court delivers dozens of decisions over the next month or so. Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern say this is a term-ending unlike any other, partly because the number of cases pinging onto the high court's shadow docket means the term may never really, truly, actually, end. And even when the shadow docket cases are decided, there is no real law that emerges, just a few lines of unsigned chicken scratch. Beyond the big merits cases concerning everything from birthright citizenship to healthcare for trans minors to racial gerrymandering to defunding Planned Parenthood, and beyond the brief, unbriefed, unargued emergency docket cases, the Supreme Court's conservatives are in a power struggle with the very president they crowned quasi-king.  In a conversation recorded live on Friday at the WBUR Festival in Boston, Mark is joined by Professor Jed Shugerman of Boston University Law School, where they discuss the bad originalism and poor judgment that led to the Roberts' court's embrace of a little something called unitary executive theory that has become the Trump administration's carte blanche.  Want more Amicus?

On this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” the Supreme Court has just issued a ruling that will allow President Donald Trump to move forward with his deportations.

Next, the panel discusses whether or not social media should be banned for children. Finally, former President Joe Biden just won't go away.

University of Michigan Law School Professor Barb McQuade discusses Trump's assault on the Constitution, the upcoming Supreme Court decisions, and how both states and everyday people can stand up for democracy. Daniella and Colin also address how Trump's tariffs are wreaking havoc on American businesses and analyze how his lack of a foreign policy vision is making America weaker.

On this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” the marital scandal between Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron deepens. Then, Project Veritas came out with a new expose featuring David Hogg. Next, several Christians are attacked by Antifa during a prayer rally in Seattle, Washington, and the Seattle mayor actually victim-blames the Christians. Finally, SCOTUS rejects an opportunity to address free speech. Can we really trust the current Supreme Court? However, United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio picks up the slack and fights for our free-speech against foreign officials.  Today's Guests: Sara is joined by chief writer and researcher for Glenn Beck Jason Buttrill and BlazeTV contributor Matthew Marsden.

The White House Solicitor General John Sauer is back before the Supreme Court AGAIN to fight against the vile, unconstitutional overreach of yet ANOTHER unelected, black-robed, tyrannical, inferior district trial court judge--this time Judge Brian Murphy, who was raised to the federal bench in DECEMBER 2024,  ONE MONTH AFTER Trump was re-elected President of the United States. Judge Murphy has decided that it is he who runs America's immigration and foreign affairs policy, and he has been issuing a series of orders micro-managing the deportation of illegal migrants convicted in various state courts of crimes as serious as murder, maiming, and child predation.After week's of this judge's nonsense, Trump has finally had enough, and he's now moved the matter directly to the Supreme Court in a motion filed yesterday.  That's what I'll be breaking down into plain English for our community today!Get Your FREE Copy of Our Best-Selling Book: "The Law of Self Defense: Principles"Visit Here: https://lawofselfdefense.com/getthebook"You are wise to buy this material.

They first look at the surprising 4-4 deadlock from the U.S. Supreme Court in the Oklahoma Statewide Charter School Board, et al. v.

Our show opens with a quick recall of my weekend to include my daughter getting married this past Sunday. I then spend some time on the liars on the Left and how they continuously project their own sins onto their opposition. We also remind everyone about what can and cannot be done with the Big Beautiful bill. Jake Tapper has come to the realization that people like to lie and maybe people in the field of “journalism” might need to be more skeptical. You don't say. To setup some good news, we have to go through some of the bad. Last week there were hearing on The Hill regarding the Covid-19 topic and it's a whole lot of bad. But, the good is today, the C-19 vaxx is no longer on the CDC schedule for healthy kids and healthy pregnant women. The Deep State continues to be revealed as leakers are being purged. We may also have more clarity over who leaked the Dobbs decision from inside the SCOTUS. Let's just say there might be a reason the Chief Justice seems unable to focus on Constitutionality within the court. Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media. You can find me on Facebook, X, Instagram, GETTR,  TRUTH Social and YouTube by searching for The Alan Sanders Show. And, consider becoming a sponsor of the show by visiting my Patreon page!!

It's another current events discussion during evening prep. Think of it as toner, psyops, highlites, active operations, face cleanse and global events. Gossip first. Taking care of what you have. Chyna's new Covid comes with weird timing. The free drones too. Gov Cuomo sent body bags along with the patients. The DEI judge for SCOTUS. We are supposed to be helping humanity move forward. Don't envy anyone. There are a lot of operations still happening. They knew in 2020 that Remdesivir had a 50% mortality rate. People with high IQ's often struggle in life. What does it mean when geniuses tell you something. A 2019 wire tap involving five eyes. The installation of Joe Biden. Accessories make the character. Rigging the election after Ukraine was finalized. There is good and bad Mossad. Same with DARPA. Favors were called in for the country. Ron Klain enters the picture. There was a back up plan for Hunter. People's ego is often their downfall. Dunn, Dunn and Dunn. It will end up with a move to impeach 44. The FBI knew something was in the drawer. Here's how it will go on the auto pen situation. It's a step ladder to Obama and Roberts. Always give people the benefit of the doubt, because it's the righteous thing to do.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – With over 40 nationwide injunctions issued since Trump took office, many people are looking to the Supreme Court to help clean up this mess. The idea of these nationwide injunctions, along with Birthright citizenship, was the topic of oral arguments in the recent case United States v. CASA. But that is just one of several recent decisions by the top court in the land...

In one of the most anticipated rulings of the term, the Supreme Court justices deadlocked Thursday in a case over the creation of a religious charter school in Oklahoma. The 4-4 split sets no precedent, meaning the justices could take up a similar case — and the underlying thornier questions around the separation of church and state — in the future. Later in the day, the justices also handed President Donald Trump a major temporary win, allowing him to fire the leaders of two independent federal agencies while the cases play out in the lower courts.

Plus, Trump's SCOTUS appointees show some spine, Marco is truly pathetic, the big, insane reconciliation bill would gut Medicaid and hurt MAGA voters even if Trump denies it, and the DOJ investigates the hiring practices of Chicago's mayor.
