Limiting the Executive Branch

The Supreme Court places a check on the Executive Branch in three decisions this term.

If the left thinks that President Trump is an authoritarian, and I agree he has authoritarian tendencies, wouldn’t you want the Supreme Court to limit executive power when it oversteps?

Yet all the hand-wringing by the left is mind-boggling to me because it tells me they 1. either didn’t read the opinions, or 2. are being deliberately misleading to the public.

June is an important time of year when the Supreme Court releases their decisions prior to a recess before the fall term. There were three primary decisions that provided a check on the executive branch, and all were, unfortunately, decided 6-3 along ideological lines.
