until alito is out of his job, nothing is "devastating" for him. there is literally nobody to hold him, or any of the justices accountable, for anything.mickeyrat said:"You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

True, but it is a terrible look for the Journal's editorial page. They tried to front run a story from another publication. That's beneath an organization with the quality of its newsroom.gimmesometruth27 said:

I moderately disagree. The editorial page is who they've been. The news division is good.Halifax2TheMax said:

scotus got another one right. who would have thunk it? roberts wrote the majority opinion with the ususal 3, thomas, gorsuch and alito dissenting...
Supreme Court Rejects Theory That Would Have Transformed American Elections
The 6-3 majority dismissed the “independent state legislature” theory, which would have given state lawmakers nearly unchecked power over federal elections.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected a legal theory that would have radically reshaped how federal elections are conducted by giving state legislatures largely unchecked power to set all sorts of rules for federal elections and to draw congressional maps warped by partisan gerrymandering.
The vote was 6 to 3, with Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. writing the majority opinion. The Constitution, he said, “does not exempt state legislatures from the ordinary constraints imposed by state law.”
Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel A. Alito Jr. and Neil M. Gorsuch dissented.
The case concerned the “independent state legislature” theory. The doctrine is based on a reading of the Constitution’s Elections Clause, which says, “The times, places and manner of holding elections for senators and representatives, shall be prescribed in each state by the legislature thereof.”
Proponents of the strongest form of the theory say this means that no other organs of state government — not courts, not governors, not election administrators, not independent commissions — can alter a legislature’s actions on federal elections.

"Five of the nine justices had never cast a vote on the issue before this term, although some — notably Thomas and Sotomayor — have said affirmative action played a dramatic role in their lives. Those two justices came away from the experience with vividly different views.Sotomayor, the court’s first Latina, has been the boldest defender of what she prefers to call “race-sensitive” admission policies and has referred to herself as the “perfect affirmative action child.” Without a boost, she has said, she likely never would have been transported from Bronx housing projects to the Ivy League. But she excelled as a top student at Princeton and Yale Law School once she got there.Thomas, the second Black justice, countered that he felt affirmative action made his diploma from Yale Law practically worthless; he has been a fierce opponent of racial preferences in his three decades on the court.".... He says from the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States of America. SMH.
