New SCOTUS Term Begins as LEFT Continues Attacks

After the leaked Dobbs opinion, the assassination attempt on Justice Brett Kavanaugh, the attacks on its authority by our own government and the mainstream media, the Supreme Court’s new session begins today.

And not surprisingly, some of the cases the Court agreed to take up on its docket are causing the Left to freak out. Especially because these cases demand rational thinking, which the Left never seems to want. It should make you wonder why.

One case involved potentially decreasing the authority of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) after a landowner out west wanted to build a new home and the EPA is using the Clean Water Act to block them from building on their own property. First off, if you own land and want to build a home there, would you really destroy the property or pollute it in the process? In fact you’d have more interest in conserving the natural environment and resources than likely anyone at the EPA. It’s just another Leftist overreach.

There are also two cases involving voting and elections here in the United States, which has already been a hot button issue for a while. The Leftist mainstream media has weaponized its headlines to attack the U.S. Supreme Court.

My dad, ACLJ Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow, summed up the new strategy of attack, rather than accept that they followed the law:

It used to be that if you disagreed with an opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States, you would say you disagree. You thought the Court got it wrong. That would be the line you would say. But now the Left at least has taken the position that if they disagree with the Court’s opinion or if the Court doesn’t come out on a case the way they’d like it to come out, now the Court is not legitimate.

The ACLJ also has special interest in this latest session, as my dad also pointed out, because one of the so-called controversial cases being appealed to the Supreme Court that is getting the radical Left so worked up is actually one of ours:

Add to that list, and I’ll say this, . . . there’s one religion case on there , but there’s now two at least that have been docketed and that is the City of Ocala v. Rojas, and we represent the City of Ocala. This was a city wide prayer vigil. The NAACP was involved in the prayer vigil, and other groups. But groups that were offended by the prayer vigil taking place fled a lawsuit. And the question is going to be, can these offended observers have standing to challenge a practice they disagree with in the United States of America. And the Court has toyed with this issue for forty years This gives them a chance to get it right. So that case, the Petition for Writ of Certiorari has been filed with the U.S. Supreme Court and we are docket 22-278. [We’re] going into our FIFTH DECADE of Supreme Court litigation with this case.

There are also cases involving affirmative action on university campuses, including Harvard, where the schools are saying we can’t have too many Asian students. It’s time for the Court to look at this out-of-date policy and say it’s not working the way it was intended twenty years ago, and should we return to a merit-based system?

While many of these cases are going to be contentious to be sure, I truly think the two that will be the most heated, politically, are the two voting cases. We will be closely monitoring all of these cases from the start to the final opinion, and we will take action wherever necessary to protect the integrity of the Supreme Court, and stop the radical Left from corrupting our Judicial System.

Today’s full Sekulow broadcast includes more in-depth analysis of some of the cases the U.S. Supreme Court will be reviewing over this new session. We are also joined by Majority Floor Leader John Echols of the Oklahoma House of Representatives who has sponsored a pro-life bill that the ACLJ supported, against opposition from the radical Left. He among other OK legislators just signed on to our brief – filed today – before the OK Supreme Court defending that state’s abortion ban.  And ACLJ Chief Counsel Mike Pompeo joins us to discuss the ongoing unrest in Iran, the Ayatollah’s attempts to blame Israel and the United States.
