- Justice Kavanaugh urged more use of the emergency docket to provide uniform interim legal rulings, while Sotomayor criticized the court’s refusal to explain decisions fully on July 8, 2025.
- The court’s cautious strategy under Chief Justice Roberts aims to preserve the rule of law while managing Trump’s challenges and avoiding a constitutional crisis.
