BY KEITH THIRION | The Supreme Court majority’s extreme belief in Trump v. U.S. that our president is above the law is anathema to the history of our nation.
In almost every case, the dissenting justices write, “I respectfully dissent,” but both Sotomayor and Jackson omit the “respectfully” in their dissents in Trump v. U.S. There is little to cling to in this decision. It is as un-American as can be.

BY JESSICA L. WATERS | One of the Court’s most significant decisions of 2024 was Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo . In a reversal of 40 years of precedent, courts—not agencies—will have the last word on interpreting federal law.
