Supreme Court keeps federal executions on hold

The Supreme Court on Friday blocked the Trump administration from re-starting federal executions next week after a 16-year break.
The justices denied the administration’s plea to undo a lower court ruling in favor of inmates who have been given execution dates. The first of those had been scheduled for Monday, with a second set for Friday. Two more inmates had been given execution dates in January.
Don't agree!
P.S. Justice Samuel Alito wrote in a short separate opinion that he believes the government ultimately will win the case and would have set a 60-day deadline for appeals court action. Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh joined Alito's opinion.

It's breaking news, so I don't have a breakdown of votes yet.

THIS is why it is so important to KAG AND keep the Senate; we need 6 justices at a minimum

Not that I'm a fan of Roberts, but it sounds like all of them voted in favor of returning this to the lower court for review, including Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.

Maybe he’s worried about facing a firing squad.
