In a scathing legal analysis published Wednesday by Slate, legal experts and journalists tore into the conservative-controlled Supreme Court for “cherry-picking historical evidence” in making its decisions, including its past reliance on an actual “witch burner” and pro-rape judge.

“You’ve got the conservative majority doing history and tradition – what they call ‘originalism’ – in a totally illegitimate way: butchering the historical record, cherry-picking historical evidence that supports their position, starting with the outcome they want and just working backward,” wrote Mark Stern, who covers courts and law for Slate.

The only ways a Supreme Court Justice leaves office is through retirement, death or impeachment. President Donald Trump is preparing for one of the options for two of it oldest members, according to a report.

Impeachment seems unlikely, but TIME Magazine reported Tuesday that White House advisors and a close circle of conservative lawyers are getting ready for the other two options as Justices Clarence Thomas, 77, and Samuel Alito, 75, advance in age.

Addressing the desperation exhibited by Donald Trump's administration to install controversial DOJ official Emil Bove on the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, MSNBC legal analyst Melissa Murray claimed his path to also ending up on the Supreme Court may already be in the works.

Seen as Attorney General Pam Bondi's "enforcer," the abrasive Bove led the charge to get federal charges dropped against NYC Mayor Eric Adams, which led to an exodus of government attorneys working for the Southern District of New York.

The three liberal members of the Supreme Court issued a scathing dissent to an unsigned order granting President Donald Trump more power to reshape federal agencies.

Justices Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented from the order in Trump v. Boyle, a decision published Wednesday that allowed Trump to fire three Democratic members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. In the dissent, the justices argued that the conservative majority of the Supreme Court seems hellbent on expanding the president's authority over independent agencies.

A progressive lawyer warned Wednesday that the Supreme Court has already signaled how it will rule on an important voting rights case.

Marc Elias, founder of the Elias Law Firm, joined progressive YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen on the show "Democracy Watch" to discuss the case. Elias said the case, which involves Louisiana's election map, could have significant ramifications for the 2026 midterm election.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) praised Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson Wednesday for exposing what he called a “billionaire-funded scheme” to pack the court with “billionaire-agreeable justices.”

“What's up with Justice Jackson? She started making her mark and speaking out early, and some of her dissents are so pointed (that Justices Elena) Kagan and (Sonia) Sotomayor don’t even join them,” Whitehouse said in a social media post on X. “The far right is out for her, and even Republican justices are getting snarky.”
