Justice Sotomayor Throws a Fit After Trump Wins Big on Immigration Stops

As RedState reported, the Trump administration scored a big win on Monday, with the Supreme Court staying a lower court ruling barring ICE from conducting immigration stops without probable cause. The original decision, which came from Biden-appointed California District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong, was spawned after a series of high-profile raids carried out in Los Angeles. 

At the time, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) proclaimed that "justice has prevailed." I suspect he won't be quite as optimistic about or respectful of the Supreme Court's latest smackdown.

Of course, this decision wasn't unanimous. As expected, the three liberal justices went the other way, with Justice Sonia Sotomayor penning the dissent and Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown-Jackson joining. The latter not writing her own dissent was a welcome reprieve from perhaps the most obnoxious, ill-informed member of the Supreme Court in modern history. Still, Sotomayor did her level best to match Brown-Jackson's pedigree by throwing a fit. Read more and see X here.
