Possible clues from RBG's 2nd Circuit remarks. #SCOTUS documentcloud.org/documents/6143…
1/ Kisor v. Wilkie: "What role, if any, will stare decisis play in the Court’s decision, we shall soon know."
2/ RBG highlights that Gundy was one of the first cases argued (before J. Kavanaugh joined the Court). But it is still not decided. The long delay suggests movements are afoot.
3/ Manhattan
Community Access Corp. v. Halleck: Do not expect a clear decision to clarify the state action doctrine
4/ Census case: expect similar deference that we saw in Trump v. HI
5/ American Legion: RBG offers no commentary whatsoever on this case. Maybe because she is happy with the resolution? Or is it in flux?
6/ Flashback to 2015: The 7 Stages of Critizing RBG. Nothing has changed

1/ Running thread as I read through the 88 pages (!) of Gamble v. US. First, I'll start w/ J. Alito's majority opinion #SCOTUS
2/ Gamble considered a draft of the Double Jeopardy Clause that was rejected. Alito says this draft should "count for little" bc "The private intent behind a drafter’s rejection of one version of a text is shoddy evidence of the public meaning of an altogether different text"
3/ In other contexts, Justices have given great weight to rejected proposals. For, in Lee v. Weisman context, J. Souter focused at great length about earlier versions of the Establishment Clause that were rejected. scholar.google.com/scholar_case?c…

1/ A House bill was introduced that would prohibit the expenditure of any federal money on Trump properties amendments-rules.house.gov/amendments/COH…
2/ This bill may run afoul of Nixon v. GSA's prohibition on Bills of Attainder. supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/… First, the law at issue in Nixon concerned the President, by name, but also implicated the papers of other Presidents. This new law *only* concerns Trump properties.
3/ Second, the Court considers "whether the legislative record evinces a congressional intent to punish." Here, the record is quite clearly designed to punish Trump and only Trump

Update in the mystery grand jury matter: Both sides now agree that the foreign country-owned company’s supplemental brief at #SCOTUS can be filed in unredacted form. (So, I’d imagine that means we’ll be able to read it. Soon? I’m checking.)
Recall that last Friday, we learned, definitively from a DC Circuit filing and the district court docket who the lawyers are: It's Alston & Bird for the foreign country-owned company and lawyers with the special counsel's office. Thread:
Cross-referencing the district court, DC Circuit, and SCOTUS dockets, it seems likely that the supplemental brief at #SCOTUS relates to a series of rulings — from the dist ct on 1/15 & 1/24 & the DC Cir on 1/29 — that appear to relate to accrual and enforceability of fines.
