      Sounds like a reason for Biden to set a whole bunch of legal precedent while he’s still president.

      As I mentioned on another comment, there is no mechanism for the court to enforce that. The DOJ is under the President. Who will arrest the President? The SC may think this empowers them more, but it really does not.

        The conservative court acts in tandem with the GOP. Any government organization run by them will provide the support.
