U.S. Supreme Court

The new season of HBO’s Last Week Tonight debuted on Sunday with host John Oliver bitterly attacking Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for making people’s lives “demonstrable worse for decades” and therefore offering him $1 million per year and a new luxury RV if he resigns and gets “the fuck off the Supreme Court.” A day later on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Jon…

MSNBC’s Joy Reid and The Nation’s justice correspondent Elie Mystal did not take the news that Colorado had a rough day before the Supreme Court as it tried to defend its decision to kick Donald Trump off its primary ballot well on the former’s Friday show. Instead of actually trying to understand conservative legal philosophy, all they could do was play the race and sexism cards.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert and NBC’s Seth Meyers struggled to cope with Colorado having a bad day before the Supreme Court as it struggled to defend its decision to kick Donald Trump off its primary ballot on the Thursday editions of The Late Show and Late Night, respectively.

Colorado had such a bad day before the Supreme Court as it tried to defend its decision to kick Donald Trump off its primary ballot that not even MSNBC and CNN could pretend otherwise. However, for MSNBC legal analyst, former Obama Solicitor General, and self-described “extremist centrist” on Twitter, Neal Katyal, it wasn’t because their arguments were so bad even the liberals appeared highly…

With the U.S. Supreme Court set to hear arguments in the case of the Colorado Supreme Court ruling to remove former President Trump from the ballot for “insurrection” despite not being found guilty on Thursday, ABC’s Good Morning America was fearful that the conservative Supreme Court would side with Trump and “decide” the 2024 election like they supposedly did in 2000. Chief Washington…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert used the Tuesday edition of The Late Show to launch into an extended factually-challenged diatribe against Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s border policies.

The biggest threat to the Constitution in 2024 is the “lawfare” being waged against Donald Trump — and the Supreme Court is as much its target as Trump is. Consider attempts in Colorado, Maine and elsewhere to ban Trump from the ballot. The architects of these efforts are counting on most Americans not knowing how presidential primaries and general elections actually work.

CNN’s Dana Bash solemnly lamented on Friday’s Inside Politics that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is in defiance of a recent Supreme Court ruling regarding razor wire at the border there was just one problem: the Court never said the wire was illegal.

After Monday’s Supreme Court ruling vacating a lower court ruling that had allowed Texas to place razor wire along the U.S.-Mexico border without inference from the Biden Border Patrol, the flagship morning and evening newscasts on ABC and NBC have moved on from the border showdown, even as tensions rise with Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) remaining resolute in having Texas Department of Public…

MSNBC’s Joy Reid welcomed The Nation’s justice correspondent and whatever the opposite of a voice of reason is Elie Mystal on to her Wednesday program for a uncalm and irrational discussion about how the Supreme Court’s skepticism towards the executive branch’s regulatory authority could lead to it reversing Brown v. Board of Education.

A powerful group of leftist entities, including academics, doctors and a lawmaker, are rallying behind the Biden administration’s un-American censorship operations as it battles a pending Supreme Court case.

On Jonathan Capehart's MSNBC show, MSNBC regular Dave Aronberg, the state attorney for Palm Beach County, Florida, admits that special prosecutor Jack Smith wanted the Supreme Court to rule on Donald Trump's claim of presidential immunity prior to the election, but didn't dare say that in his brief to the Court because he "did not want to be perceived as being political. He didn't want to…

Democratic strategist and frequent media talking head James Carville went on multiple emotionally unhinged and factually challenged rants on Friday’s Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO and the Overtime segment broadcast on CNN’s Laura Coates Live. Carville took Speaker Mike Johnson wildly out of context to portray him as worse than Al-Qaeda while earlier claiming…

Slate senior editor and legal correspondent Dahlia Lithwick joined Friday’s edition of Jose Diaz-Balart on MSNBC to discuss the death of former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor and her legal legacy. Lithwick lamented that O’Connor being replaced by Samuel Alito has led to that legacy being “erased” and “vaporized” as the Court moves “very dramatically to the right.”
