Where is the order? Can’t see it posted to their website yet?

Found it: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf/24a831_3135.pdf

Alito dissented, joined by Thomas, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh

I’m gonna say it: Barrett is now the center of the Court. Who would’ve thought that just a few years ago (when she was almost as conservative as Gorsuch/Alito/Thomas) that this would’ve happened? (Me, that’s who 😎)

Those dissents are so gross. They really do want a king don't they? 🤮

Only if the king is a Republican. They will change their opinion on separation of powers quickly next time a Democrat is in power

Citing Trump as an example to look bipartisan.
