Articles and Cases Discussed:
The Court rejected the “Independent State Legislature” theory, one of the various legal mechanisms Trump pursued to remain in power after losing in 2020, in Moore v. Harper (6-3) https://www.npr.org/2023/06/27/1181152636/independent-state-legislature-theory-supreme-court-decision
Screwed over the Navajo Nation reserve, saying the US had no obligations to provide water under their treaty with the reservation in Arizona v. Navajo Nation (5-4)
Ended race-based affirmative action in Students for Fair Admissions Inc. v. President & Fellows of Harvard College (6-3)
Expanded business discrimination of LGBTQIA+ individuals in 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis (6-3)
Case was brought forth on bogus claims and should have lacked standing, the website to design wedding websites did not yet exist nor did the “gay man” who supposedly requested the website https://newrepublic.com/article/173987/mysterious-case-fake-gay-marriage-website-real-straight-man-supreme-court
Rejection of Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan in Biden v. Nebraska https://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/biden-v-nebraska-2/
