  1. What's so shocking in reading this isn't that the decisions are "conservative" in any sense of that word. The headline has it just right - they're Trumpy - which is to say mean-spirited moral and legal failures attached to no consistent doctrine. vox.com/policy-and-politics/2022/12/27/23496264/supreme-court-fifth-circuit-trump-court-immigration-housing-sexual-harrassment

      Ultimately, the moral/ethical/civic failure that is Trumpism consists solely in who you hate and who you think has no rights under the law. It's not ideology, it's psychotic hatreds that change with the news cycle, and it's as ugly as it is evil. archive.thinkprogress.org/during-court-hearing-conservative-fifth-circuit-chief-judge-shouts-down-progressive-colleague-ad84572dd825/
