As Pride Month celebrations drew to a close on the last day of June, the Supreme Court delivered another blow to the LGBTQ+ movement. Earlier in its term, the court had backed anti-gay conversion therapy, undermined protections for transgender children in schools, and sided with the Trump administration’s refusal to let trans people use... more

The Supreme Court had a field day this term mangling Congress’ laws. For a court that repeatedly claims to be deferential to the will of the legislature, it took nearly every opportunity to narrow, rewrite, or make ineffective a wide range of federal statutes. Slate has been covering this phenomenon all year, from the dangerous decision... more

This week, veteran National Public Radio reporter Nina Totenberg briefly published a story stating that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was retiring. This report was wrong, and within minutes, NPR retracted the story. What followed was a day of public self-flagellation from Totenberg, her editor, and NPR itself, followed by a Cersei... more

Some media outlets reported on Tuesday that the Supreme Court ruled in favor of birthright citizenship by a 6–3 vote. But that’s not quite right: The court held that the 14th Amendment guarantees birthright citizenship to the children of immigrants only by a 5–4 margin. Justice Brett Kavanaugh in fact dissented from that holding,... more

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court ruled that the first sentence of the 14th Amendment means exactly what it says: Birthright citizenship is the nation’s fundamental law, and Donald Trump cannot repeal it via executive order. The vote was 5–4. This outcome is, of course, a relief. But the margin is a scandal. It is nothing short of stunning... more

Two years ago this week, in the landmark Johnson v. Grants Pass decision, the Supreme Court gave cities and states the green light to make it a crime to sleep outside, even when there is nowhere else for people to go. To be clear, laws that make it a crime to experience homelessness are as old as this country, but the Supreme Court’s... more

On Thursday, the Supreme Court blessed the Trump administration’s efforts to kick hundreds of thousands of Haitians and Syrians out of the United States. This was one of three unspeakably wrong opinions released on the same day, all by a 6–3 ideological divide, and all written by Justice Samuel Alito. Alito’s opinion pulls off a nearly... more
