In her dissenting opinion on the EPA case, Justice Kagan lamented that kids alive today might see the eastern seaboard swallowed by the atlantic ocean.

In other words, she stated very explicitly, that she made her ruling based at least in part, on which decision would give her the outcome she likes more.

She set the constitution aside, and put her thumb in the scale for the side she was rooting for

Judges should never, ever do that. If she wants to advocate for policies she’s passionate about, she belongs in the legislative branch, not in the supreme court

Middle school civics. There is no “eastern seaboard swallowed by the atlantic ocean” clause in the constitution.

This is why the statue of lady justice at every courthouse is wearing a blindfold. Kagan freely admitted she book the blindfold off,,because her concern for the environment was more important than the law.
