When's the last time Thomas sided with the 4 most liberal justices in a 5-4 ruling? Weird. Actually weird that there were still 4 justices that wanted to force the State of Texas to have confederate flags on its license plates against its will. I mean how often does Texas do the right thing?

I found Roberts' SSM dissent interesting after his opinion on the ACA yesterday. He seems to have a very clear personal philosophy about what constitutes judicial activism.

If you consider striking down a century old Montana campaign finance law to not be judicial activism.

LOL at Alito trying to stick it to gun nuts in a lone dissent.

The EPA ruling proves that the court is still a right-wing hack court.
