    None announced today, mr. pedantic (I'm going on 3 hours sleep due to a teething kid and stuck in project management training all day, so I apologize for being short tempered today).

      To that end, we can never be certain on any day of any which year. Any justice alive may decide to retire at any given point. Except RBG, she's in it until she expires while hearing a case on the bench.

      "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

                    Of course it is. Life is choices. The bright sunny day beckons.

                    I mean, no, I'm not leaving my corporate slave pen either, but it's a choice I make every day. Stupid forethought.

                              “In practical terms, this means that §2(c) may not be enforced against foreign nationals who have a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States,” the Court said. “All other foreign nationals are subject to the provisions of EO–2.” Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Neil Gorsuch said they would have granted the Trump administration’s request to block the lower court injunctions in their entirety while legal proceedings unfold.

                              • Re: Power of the SCOTUS IX: The outlook wasn’t brilliant for the SCOTUS nine that day

                                A question. From the SCOTUS:

                                The facts of these cases illustrate the sort of relationship
                                that qualifies. For individuals, a close familial relation
                                -
                                ship is required. A foreign national who wishes to enter
                                the United States to live with or visit a family member,
                                like Doe’s wife or Dr. Elshikh’s mother-in-law, clearly has
                                such a relationship. As for entities, the relationship must
                                be formal, documented, and formed in the ordinary course,
                                rather than for the purpose of evading EO–2.
                                The stu-
                                dents from the designated countries who have been admit-
                                ted to the University of Hawaii have such a relationship
                                with an American entity. So too would a worker who
                                accepted an offer of employment from an American com-
                                pany or a lecturer invited to address an American audi-
                                ence. Not so someone who enters into a relationship sim-
                                ply to avoid §2(c): For example, a nonprofit group devoted to
                                immigration issues may not contact foreign nationals from
                                the designated countries, add them to client lists, and then
                                secure their entry by claiming injury from their exclusion
                                .
                                How could this be proven? What is the legal threshold here?

                                It looks like Thomas, in his opinion, wonders the same thing:
                                Moreover, I fear that the Court’s remedy will prove
                                unworkable. Today’s compro
                                mise will burden executive
                                officials with the task of deciding—on peril of contempt—
                                whether individuals from the six affected nations who
                                wish to enter the United States have a sufficient connec-
                                tion to a person or entity in this country.
