“The arrival of Justice Amy Coney Barrett in October seemed to create a 6-to-3 conservative juggernaut that would transform the Supreme Court,” the New York Times reports.
“Instead, judging by the 39 signed decisions in argued cases so far this term, including two major rulings on Thursday, the right side of the court is badly fractured and its liberal members are having a surprisingly good run.”
“So far this term, the court’s three Democratic appointees have voted with the majority 73% of the time in divided cases, slightly ahead of the 72% rate of the six Republican appointees … in divided cases, 64% of decisions have been labeled liberal, the highest since 1968.”
