re: SCOTUS will hear Birthright Citizenship case

ACB is a procedural stickler. Gorsuch is fairly strict on procedure as well.
That may be why they have not granted writs on the other case as some believe there is an issue with standing.
That is the odd part of this case. It is not on final judgment, rather this is on an interlocutory appeal. SCOTUS rarely grants an interlocutory appeal.
During oral arguments on universal injunctions Gorsuch actually asked why the government did not include the citizenship part. He came across as though he was disappointed that birthright citizenship was not before them.
Lastly, I believe Sotomayor has a tell when she is on the losing side. She was clearly angry during oral arguments with the government and she was on the losing side. Her anger also included the governments attack on birthright citizenship.

BTW there is a second case 25-364 that SCOTUS did not grant writs, did not deny writs either. In that case some believe there is an issue with standing. SCOTUS may not dispose of the second case until after they render a decision in the present case. If writs are denied in 364 before 365 is decided then overturning the lower courts in 365 is not looking good.

There is really no reason to accept this case to only affirm the lower courts. They could do that by denying the writ application.
It takes 4 justices to agree to hear the case. However you will not get 4 justices to hear the case if they know they will lose. In other words there is a 5th justice that is willing to reverse the lower court.
Read the briefs that have been filed, I suggest the briefs from the congressman and the Tennessee brief. Both are very good.

SCOTUS will hear Birthright Citizenship case

I seem to recall that Tyrann endorsed the Matt House hire. That did not work out.
I would not worry about Lane using LSU as a stepping stone for another job.
I can only think of three head coaches who left without getting fired, Paul Dietzel( took job a Army), Bill Arnsparger (took Fla AD job) and Saban All others ended up getting fired (while Charlie Mac officially retired, he was forced out)
In other words I am not taking Tyrann's concerns seriously.

So Congress can usurp the Constitution?
Not really.
Section 5 of the 14th Amendment states
quote:
The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
Nothing to prevent the congress from passing a law defining "jurisdiction in such a manner that would end birthright citizenship.
Side note SCOTUS used section 5 to prevent Colorado and other states from keeping Trump off the ballad under Section 3.

Or it could be that have the vote but want to be sure there are no procedural defects that they are unaware of. It is believed by court observers that even though the votes are there to grant cert, Roberts will hold it over for the next conference so the law clerks can go though the record to make sure there are no procedural defects that would prevent the court from ruling. Roberts frequently does this not just this case.
Or one of the Justice wants to file a dissent on the denial of Cert.

Looking forward to a 9-0 decision against trump on this one.
You would think that since its such a slam dunk SCOTUS would deny Cert on the first conference. SCOTUS did not deny Cert, rather it will reschedule it for the next conference.

Rest in Peace fellow mariners
The wreck is in Canadian waters in about 525 feet of water. The Canadians passed a law declaring the wreck site a grave site and that forbids the diving on the wreck. This law passed after it was discovered that a body of one of the crew was located outside of the wreck on the bottom. Because of the temperature of the water and lack of oxygen in the water very little if any decomposition occurs. IIRC none of the crews family members wanted the body recovered, preferring that he remain with his shipmates,
RIP crew,

Sota mayer has a tell, when she gets angry in her questioning she is on the losing side. It sounded like she was getting angry.
These cases were originally argued in the 2024 term. At the end of June the court decided to hold these cases over for additional argument. Justice Thomas filed a dissent from holding the cases over. In his dissent he goes over the state of the law. Thomas seems to take the position that section 2 of the voting rights act violates the constitution. On August 1, 2025 the additional issue requesting supplemental briefs was added.

There was another issue added to the case by SCOTUS on August 1, 2025 when they requested supplemental briefs.
