One or more #SCOTUS opinions coming at 10.
At least 2 (probably 3 or 4).
First #SCOTUS opinion is in Intel Corp Incestment Policy Committee v. Sulyma, an ERISA case, with the unanimous opinion by Alito: supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf…
Second #SCOTUS opinion is in Holguin-Hernandez v. US. Unanimous opinion by Breyer, in a decision finding for the defendant in a criminal case over a question about whether an appeal was properly preserved at the trial court. (Alito, w Gorsuch, concurs.) supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf…
Final #SCOTUS decision today is in Shular v. US, a unanimous opinion by Ginsburg, in a (another) case about interpreting a provision in the Armed Career Criminal Act. (Kavanaugh concurs.) supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf…
That’s it from #SCOTUS opinions today, and I only came away with one unfortunate spelling error in my tweets!

Opinion-wise, a *lot* still out there for March through June (including several cases not even yet argued).
Here's Berman on that Armed Career Criminal Act decision from #SCOTUS today —>

What a day it was. Thanks, @catesish, for being you and spreading such joy.
To read about the day that was: buzzfeed.com/charliewarzel/…
But never forget that the first sign of the day ahead of us — at least for those of us in DC — happened on the floor of the Senate.

This is a thing.
Here’s the lawsuit, unsurprisingly, filed by Charles Harder: assets.donaldjtrump.com/2017/web/hero_…
Only the NYT, and not the author of the opinion column, is being sued.

Mike Bloomberg should not be the Democratic nominee, will not be able to do what is needed to help fix this country and government after Trump, and could lose just as easily — if not more easily — than any of the other candidates up there.
That Bloomberg is still telling the American people that he addressed stop and frisk — and not that extensive litigation did it — is reprehensible. What’s worse is that he was fighting that litigation until he left office — and defending the policy until last year.
That Bloomberg continues to be dismissive of questions about the sexual harassment and gender discrimination litigation faced by his company — trying to winnow the discussion down to three NDAs relating to comments he made — is missing the point of the questions altogether.

1/ A belated thread on American Legion v. American Humanist Association (the Peace Cross Case). I finally finished editing it for 2019 @RandyEBarnett/@JoshMBlackman supplement.
2/ After oral argument, I tweeted my biggest fear: Breyer would write the majority opinion, and make a further hash of establishment clause jurisprudence. That sort of happened.
3/ At every turn, J. Alito's majority opinion sought to mollify J. Breyer, and repeatedly cited his concurrence in Van Orden v. Perry--it's been there for a while, so don't tear it down! But we say nothing else about anything else.

I’ve just written something about the latest census machinations and it is 🔥🔥🔥. Stand by
The kicker I've just written to this @slate piece turns my stomach.

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…

Wet day here at #SCOTUS where we’ll get orders at 9:30, opinions at 10.
We've had 42 opinions in argued cases so far this term, with 27 (!) remaining.
See what's left as #SCOTUS enters the homestretch of its 2018 term. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

1/ In Preap, J. Kavanaugh stressed that "the strict 1996 illegal-immigration law" was "signed by President Clinton." The implication is that even a Democratic President favored a strict immigration law. Why make this political point in an opinion? #SCOTUS
2/ In contrast, CJ Roberts's Windsor dissent did not name the "President who signed" DOMA. That is, a Democratic President--Clinton--who prohibited the federal recognition of same-sex marriage. #SCOTUS
3/ Scholars make this point all the time. For example, when discussing Hobby Lobby, I note that then-Rep. Schumer sponsored RFRA, and Pres. Clinton signed it into law. Judges should not make this sort of point. #SCOTUS
