…and so it begins. The thousands of #ClassAction certification requests.
Have fun #FederalCourts!

Friday’s ruling will lead to a drastic reduction in the #FederalCourts’ ability to check the White House, according to Judith Resnik, a professor at Yale Law School. #NationwideInjunctions give #courts “the capacity to tell the key nationwide actor, the #ExecutiveBranch, to behave lawfully,” she said.

#SCOTUS’ opinion setting new limits on the #power of district-court #judges to use one of their most potent tools— #NationwideInjunctions —marks the beginning of a profound shift in the way the #FederalCourts operate.
Before, >1k judges had the power to issue nationwide orders that could stop the #FederalGovernment in its tracks.
Now, those judges’ rulings can only apply to the actual plaintiffs in the case.

If the president does it, then it isn’t illegal.
At least according to this #SCOTUS.
Pretty much the final nail in the coffin of #democracy in the #UnitedStates.
