SCOTUS Shadow Docket Proves They Work For Trump [View all]

There’s no longer any doubt that the country’s highest court favors the felonious insurrectionist p*ssy grabber.

By NewsHound Ellen — July 10, 2025

Political Science Professor Adam Bonica prepared a chart (see below) that is worth at least a thousand words. He accompanied it with the explainer, “When lower courts blocked Trump admin policies, SCOTUS intervened on an emergency basis to lift those orders in 77% of cases. For the Biden administration, that number was 0%.

Even worse, Bonica points out that all the nationwide injunctions blocking Biden administration policies were issued by Republican-appointed judges. Those blocking the Trump administration were issued by a bipartisan set of judges.

The MAGA Supreme Court is not calling “balls and strikes,” as Chief Justice John Roberts claims. It’s a huge majority of “balls” for the Republican felon and 100% strikes for his Democratic predecessor.
