Well, howdy there, Internet people, it's Bell again.

So today, we're going to talk about the Supreme Court rulings.

The Supreme Court handed down a number of decisions today, and we're going to provide

summaries of all of them.

It's important to note that, like many Scotus decisions, the headlines are sometimes misleading, and there will be attorneys pouring over the decisions looking for the fine print.

Trump versus Casa. This is probably the most consequential, and already the headlines are misleading. Let me say this clearly. This did not revoke birthright citizenship. This isn't even about

birthright citizenship. It evolved from that case, but the question before the court was whether

or not federal district courts could issue nationwide injunctions.

In a six to three decision, the court said, quote,

The court grants the government's applications for a partial stay of the injunctions entered below,

but only to the extent that the injunctions are broader than necessary

to provide complete relief to each plaintiff

with standing to sue. So they sided with Trump on limiting nationwide injunctions, but kept in place

the injunctions for the actual plaintiffs. Meaning courts could say stop the administration from

deporting a person suing, but couldn't use that

case to issue a nationwide injunction against the behavior. Expect a bunch more suits and class

action suits. There's going to be a lot more coming on this from legal scholars. Free Speech Coalition versus Paxton. This one is pretty

straightforward. A state can require age verification for grown-up sites on the internet. Federal

Communications Commission versus Consumers Research. This was a challenge to the E-Rate Program, which subsidizes phone and high-speed

internet for schools, libraries, low-income communities in urban areas, and rural areas.

The Supreme Court sided with the FCC and kept the program up and running.

Mahmood v. Taylor.
