"The Supreme Court, as you admitted, simply declined to hear an appeal of a lower court ruling on the so called shadow docket." - Marco the Clown
That is simply not true in fact you have it backwards. The did not decline to hear the appeal. The Supreme Court reversed a District Court ruling that stopped ICE from using race or ethnicity as a factor in stops. Kavanaugh then went on to clearly imply it in his concurrence with the majority.
"There was no ruling by the court as to any of the merits of the underlying case." - Marco the Clown
No duh. It is a good thing no one implied that they commented on the underlying case otherwise you might have your first ever point.
"Not only is there no binding holding in the Supreme Court which says what you falsely attributes to it, there is no binding or precedential holding in the Supreme Court at all." - Marco the Clown
Do you have a reading comprehension problem? Are you just dumb? Maybe English is your second language (Russian first???)? I never said or claimed any of those things. Perhaps you would look like less of an idiot if you argued against things I actually said instead of pretending I said something different. People might stop laughing at you.
"You're a liar. When your mistake is pointed out to you, rather than conceding your mistake, you double down." - Marco the Clown
You inability to comprehend does not render anyone else a liar. It just means you are incapable.
I will make it simple for you. So simple that even a Russian Troll whose primary language isn't English would be able to grasp it.
In the case mentioned, ICE was making stops based on nothing more than a person's apparent race and ethnicity. Despite have no other reason to stop a person, ICE was picking up everyone who looked Hispanic in Home Depot parking lots and car washes. Even American Citizens. Basically trampling all over the Fourth Amendment. A District Court put out an injunction saying ICE could not use apparent race or ethnicity as the sole factor in making immigration stops (papers please?). The DOJ then appealed to SCOTUS where the in an apparent 6-3 decision, the Six Authoritarian Papers Please GOP SCOTUS judges put a hold on that injunction and allowed ICE to continue to trample all over the 4th Amendment. Not only that, Justice Kavanaugh (the alleged Sexual Assaulter type the GOP loves) put out a concurring explanation that went a step further and clearly implied that using apparent race made probabilistic sense as justification for stops. Apparently 10% probability (the estimated percentage of Hispanic people with unlawful status) is enough to overcome the "reasonable doubt" portion of the 4th Amendment.

I look forward to 2028 when President Newsom send ATF agents to stop and search everyone leaving a gun show based on the probabilistic nature that some percentage of the attendees are criminals.
There you have been given a chance to educate yourself. What are you going to do with that chance? Are you going to double down on bluster and ignorance or do better?
