By this logic, Professor Bagley would be perfectly fine with a Michigan state court ruling made in Detroit having no effect or power in Grand Rapids or Traverse City.
The Federal system has been rendered powerless by this decision. Thought exercise it all you want, that’s the alpha and omega of it.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson called yesterday's decision about nationwide injunctions "an existential threat to the rule of law."
She's mistaken.

Excited to see what Robert Hassell III can do in the Bigs.
Also excited to see if he props his hat on the tippy top of his head in games the way he does in photos.
