GianCarlo and Amy dive into the two big opinions this week that considered whether Title VII of the Civil Rights Act forbids sexual-orientation and gender-identity discrimination and whether the Trump administration acted properly when it rescinded the DACA program. Amy then interviews Judge David Porter of the Third Circuit. And lastly, with textualism all the rage because of the Title VII decision, GC tries to stump Amy with textualism-related trivia!
Here’s the link to Amy’s article on the Court’s refusal to take a Second Amendment case: https://www.heritage.org/firearms/commentary/justices-continue-long-shameful-silence-second-amendment

Sotomayor (she’s not my justice) WON’T CARE if she has to flip her thinking because of what she did in the discrimination. She’ll just rule the way she wants to. The law has written, even her own opinions will not get in the way of coming up with the ruling she feels is right. I can’t believe you think she’ll care or be concerned for even a nanosecond.
