"The "conservative" justices (there shouldn't be any type of Justice, but that's another topic) ruled and then slammed the door on future bullshite. They basically said, "No, and also don't pull this bullshite again because X, Y, Z."

I agree with you and so, I suspect, would ACB. The problem, from a jurisprudential standpoint, is that the "and" part of what the majority did is inconsistent with the longstanding principle that the Court should not decide things that are not necessary to dispose of the case before it. You just made ACB's case for her concurrence.

I think she is talking about the Liberals making it an issue.

The passion of national discourse should have nothing to do with it. Your job is to interpret the constitutionality of laws/issues before the court.

It’s not the court’s role to be the least bit concerned with the “temperature”. Interpret the law. That’s it.

Dissenting opinions serve a useful purpose in the US legal system.

It's not. Some people look for reasons to get butthurt, no matter which side of the aisle they are on.

"OMG, she agreed with us, but didn't COMPLETELY agree with EVERYTHING and didn't agree the way we wanted her to agree"

She's saying the ruling should have ended there and within their typical protocols. They went further, which may have political effects.

The irony is they keep bringing up the "women are emotional" talking point while they are engaging in emotion-based demands of outrage

The national temperature should be irrelevant to the Supreme Court.
