You ready?

I was born ready.

Welcome to the advisory opinions podcast. This is David French with Sarah Isker.

We have a lot to talk about today, but not one of the cases is one of the big ones.

Even though the Supreme Court put out so many opinions today that we had to delay the start of the podcast taping waiting for each opinion to come out, waiting to see if it's going to have that R number beside it on the Supreme Court website saying it was the last one.

But yeah, it was a fire hose of cases, Sarah, and how many of them are interesting?

I like one and a half.

One and a half.

Yeah, so do we want to do the rundown and then we'll talk about the one that's interesting.

Then we've got a death penalty case to talk about that's overdue.

We've got some law to talk about regarding the Justice Kavanaugh assassination attempt.

And then we also at the end, if we have time, are going to talk about some of the interesting aspects of the bipartisan gun control compromise announced yesterday.

So Sarah, give us a little bit of a rundown on the uninteresting cases that were decided today.

Okay, so these three cases all fall into the half, meaning like they're not not interesting.

They're just whatever 0.5 divided by three is first two immigration cases.

One on whether you can hold an alien without a bond hearing even after six months, the court said, yes, that was an interesting lineup case more than anything else.

Line up on that case.

So do my your writing.

Robert Thomas Alito Kagan, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh Barrett.

Thomas concurring with Gorsuch and Briar concurring and dissenting.

So an interesting case again, especially to have so to my, you are right, something that is against her probably preferred policy outcome.

And so I do like highlighting that as potentially interesting.
