In reply to the discussion: Supreme Court agrees to decide if Trump may end birthright citizenship [View all]PSPS
(15,300 posts)7. You're exactly right.

SCOTUS already granted certiorari months ago for the injunction issue (with vociferous dissents from the 3 liberals).

It is you who is mistaken. There is absolutely no basis to suggest that Sotomayor, Jackson and Kagan have flipped.

Sotomayor, Jackson and Kagan have not flipped. You are dead wrong in suggesting they did. nt

No I didn't. As I said, the prior ruling, with 3 dissents, involved the exact same Executive Order.

You said certiorari had been granted. It hadn't and you have to know that by now. Not even the same case.

The cases are all about the same birthright citizenship EO. It's all a bullshit game by the SCOTUS conservatives.
