The conservative majority on the Supreme Court flexed its muscle this term, delivering a blockbuster series of rulings that bend decades of jurisprudence to the right on everything from God and guns to abortion and climate change. “The conservative majority as long as it sticks together is something that can’t be stopped,” said Adam Feldman, a law professor and author of the Empirical SCOTUS blog. Nowhere was that more apparent than the abortion ruling, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. The conservative majority said that was discrimination. Chief Justice Roberts has ordered an investigation that has reportedly involved asking clerks to turn over their phone records.
