If Alito can solo allow the ratfucking in Texas to occur, then Justice Jackson can absolutely decline any appeals to the California ruling I would think.
The problem is that Jackson is acting in good faith while Alito is not. I can’t actually blame her for that. We can’t prevent the destruction of the rule of law by disregarding the rule of law when it is inconvenient for us. There are a lot of areas where we need to break with conventional and tradition because of bad faith, but the actual law should not be one of them.
So that means what California is doing is fine right? Right ‽
