Is it really denouncing the U.S. Supreme Court so much as doing exactly what state constitutions and courts should be doing: expanding the protections owed to its citizens??
NEW: Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court.
The latest? A new ruling that requires the police to record all interrogations from now on.
The author took it as an opportunity to say Hawaii's court will protect due process—while SCOTUS isn't:

Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS - Bolts
Hawaii justices ruled that their state constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaiians—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.

We've discussed this a bunch on @strictscrutiny.bsky.social. SCOTUS's opinion tomorrow will not address the substantive question of whether 14A confers birthright citizenship. It'll address whether and in what circumstances universal injunctions are an appropriate judicial remedy. . . .
How worried are you about birthright citizenship?

New sins just dropped???
MAGA Christians recognize that empathy poses a direct challenge to their policy prescriptions. So they attack it as too easily weaponizable. In the process, they redefine it so that, now, its only authentic forms flawlessly reflect their politics. An upside-down religious and political subculture.
Across the MAGA Christian right, there is a new enemy: empathy. Yes, empathy.
@davidfrenchjag.bsky.social rightly finds this development deeply troubling.

Early on, I warned people. Constitutional law scholars who haven’t actually studied Indian law shouldn’t be in on this part of the conversation because they don’t get the nuances.

What’s it called when the government knows more than the experts in the field?
The HHS published a lengthy document that rails against gender-affirming care for youth and the professional associations that have developed standards for treating them.
But beyond its overtly political nature, experts say it does not meet the bare minimum of basic scientific standards.

They told us their plans ahead of time. In those plans, they made comments about countering family separation by sending US citizen children back “home” with their parents.
I’m not saying it’s acceptable or that we ignore it. But when they tell you who they are, believe them.
