NEW: SCOTUS's Rahimi decision leaves LOTS of open questions for state courts, which are where the bulk of 2nd Amendment litigation actually takes place. @ericmruben writes for @StateCourtRpt about this new landscape. @BrennanCenter @SMULawSchool

SCOTUS's 2nd Amendment Decision Leaves Open Questions for State Courts

The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the disarmament of a domestic abuser in United States v. Rahimi, but litigation over where to draw the line will continue.

Overlooked: state cts resolve more 2A claims than fed cts and are extremely burdened by SCOTUS's ambiguous recent guidance. I highlight that burden and how Rahimi does little to resolve it (even in DV cases) @statecourtrept @BrennanCenter @SMULawSchool

The Supreme Court changed America last June — cramming decades of radical social change into just three days. It’s poised to do it again. My new book, The Supermajority, shows how the court seized so much power and how we can fight back.

Michael Waldman’s new book explains how the Court gained the staggering power and influence that made this moment possible and what can be done to bring this runaway institution back in line with...

As @rickhasen notes, while the Court in Murthy rejected the plaintiff's jawboning claims on standing grounds, it also highlighted the absolute lack of evidence of coercion of social media companies by the government.

Today’s SCOTUS ruling in Snyder v. United States dramatically narrows federal safeguards against state public corruption. It’s going to be lumped in with the Court’s past cases on the “criminalization of politics” like the McDonnell and "Bridgegate" cases, but IMO it's actually

In Ohio’s congressional primaries, much of the money spent came from outside the state, an issue we’re seeing around the country. It makes candidates more likely to cater to a national donor base rather than their constituents.

The primaries showcased big money from national groups, hidden sources, and candidate self-funding.

While we wait (and wait) for SCOTUS to rule on Trump's immunity claim, a reminder that criminal immunity would transform the presidency into a monarchy, as an all-star cast of historians reminded the Court (and the world) in a major amicus brief.

Today in Murthy v MO #SCOTUS reversed yet another radical 5th Circuit decision that for months has decimated social media efforts to curb disinformation. Reminder that the 5th Cir has been emboldened by SCOTUS's own extremism and the perception that everything is up for grabs.

Today’s SCOTUS decision in Murthy v. Missouri is a win for fighting election disinformation. It overturns the 5th Circuit’s extreme ruling, and allows government agencies to resume sharing their expertise/information on foreign interference, voting disinfo, and election threats.

As we await more SCOTUS opinions (and potentially new installments in this term's multi-episode Originalism War), check out Saul Cornell's latest in @Slate on the originalism dynamics in Rahimi:

The John Roberts Balancing Act Is Back, at Least for Guns

The asymmetrical approach to rights and regulation associated with Thomas acted as a one-way ratchet, expanding gun rights at the expense of the people.
