Roberts Court decides conditions have changed therefor Sectn 4 isn't necessary. This is a judgement
.. on the constitutionality of the law??? Since when does the Supreme court decide on whether a law is practical or appropriate given current circumstances. I thought they were limited to deciding whether a law was constitutional or not??
... oh, yeah, I forgot, the Roberts court is free to pick and choose whether it agrees with laws philosophically (iow: politically) or not.
Roberts has no appreciation for the principal of division of powers. He can make pronouncements on any basis that pleases him. John Roberts, Chief Justice and Ayatollah of the Roberts Uber Court. Like Nixon said "something's legal if the president does it" Ayotollah Roberts believes his uber court can decide what the limits of their charge is by just passing judgements on whatever basis seems right to them (i.e. to Roberts).
Their judgements are, ipso facto, appropriate. Thus the Roberts Uber Court enjoys free range to make whatever determinations they want and only their whims limit them. Roberts rather too easily embraces the traditional idea of the divine right of kings....and of despots.
