Among the cases still pending: the court will decide whether a school district in suburban Washington, DC, burdened the religious rights of parents by declining to allow them to opt their elementary-school children out of reading LGBTQ books in the classroom.

The court will also decide the fate of a government task force that recommends which preventive health care services must be covered at no cost under Obamacare. And it will decide a challenge over Louisiana’s congressional districts that questions how far states may go in considering race when they draw maps to fix a violation of the Voting Rights Act.

But by far the most significant decision is likely to be the one dealing with Trump’s birthright citizenship order.

“Blockbuster” sure is a fucking way to describe “ripping up the constitution and shitting on the rights of Americans, again.”

Fuck the court. Fuck CNN.
