Dereliction of duty.

Clowns wearing black robes.

The Constitution means nothing to them anymore.

“The Constitution means nothing to them anymore.”

It never did, beginning with Chief Justice John Marshall.

Hold on a minute EJ, the grounds that VA had asked for the expedited review had prior been ruled upon by the Supreme’s in other matters as insufficiant for expedited review. Upholding that precedent may be the smart move here by the Supremes.

The REAL issue in expediting the matter comes from the request being filed under the multi-state litigation based in Florida. That issue is what as known in the court systems as ripe for a decision. I fully anticipate the Supreme’s granting cert on that application - most likely in October when they reconvene and the presidential race starts to heat up.

IF they do NOT grant cert on the Florida litigation then I agree with your initial assessment.

You obvioulsy know nothing about the SCOTUS, appellate practice and procedure, or the Constitution.

No. The derelict was the idiot who presented this case to the Supreme Court one week before they break until the Fall (October). Supremes have their entire docket completed easily by February for the rest of the year.
