      @JonahDispatch Worth noting: Circuit courts disagreed on the law giving the CDC wide powers, and SCOTUS was never briefed (the unsigned majority lie on this point), nor did it issue anything one could call an opinion. Policy, good or bad, that can’t go in Reconciliation can’t pass.

    @JonahDispatch And as bad as the court responding to a circuit split with a paragraph of unsigned extralegal pablum is, it’s better than dime-store political operative Brett Kavanaugh, using his power to play political games with the executive branch based on…what legal reasoning?
