We ended last week talking about some Supreme Court decisions, the emergency docket, specifically the shadow docket.

We talked about it.

We're coming into this week.

We're bringing up a case.

And then we're going to move into it.

And we're going to take a look into the future, just like we did about a year ago this time, this year, I'm sorry, last year, when we looked at what was coming up on the docket.

And we've gone through all of these monumental cases, some wins, some losses, a lot of wins for Trump, but some losses for Trump.

A year ago, we said, here's what's coming up.

And we hit them.

We knocked them out as they came up.

Birthright citizenship, that went well.

Tariffs went well, right? Tariffs went well.

The USPS regulations scanning mail-in ballots and tossing a bunch of ballots, that went well, and there were some losses.

There were some bad losses.

Probably the worst was the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, Section 2.

That was probably the most detrimental to democracy forwarding people's rights and equality.

That was really, really bad, and it opened the door for a ton of gerrymandering.

There were other losses as well.

Man, allowing that save system, that was no good.

Not as much for this midterm, allowing the DHS's save system to be accessed by any states who come calling.

A save system that has your social security information, your DMV information, anything from the DOJ or the FBI, all of it rolled in to the save system.

All your information, every bit of it, that state and local election officials in red states can now go rifling through.

And, you know, even Kavanaugh and whoever wrote the opinion, they said, look, this can't happen for this midterm, the 90-day chaos, the 90-day pause period before elections to avoid the chaos.

That will take precedent here.

They even mentioned it in their opinion.
