"Scalia's reasoning fits squarely with the conservative logic that wildlife is only valuable to the extent that it is economically beneficial, and that industry should not be punished for harming wildlife just because that wildlife is in the way of profit."

Please do not listen when the author of the opinion that overturned Roe v. Wade tells you that a landmark Supreme Court precedent is safe

Stop us if you've heard this before: A Scalia theory the Supreme Court rejected is making a comeback with the Trump White House

Alito doesn't need to cast a vote to overturn Obergefell. He's already shown conservative activists how to keep chipping away at it

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 8, 2026, 11:45 AM

If the Supreme Court's "power lies in its legitimacy," the Court forfeited both in its handling of Christa Pike's case, Congress should respond accordingly

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 7, 2026, 8:38 PM

Sam Alito's assurances that Obergefell is safe are sort of undermined by the last five decades of the conservative legal movement

The Supreme Court could effectively decide whether ANYONE has the power to do something about climate change

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 7, 2026, 11:45 AM

Congress should strip the Supreme Court of its power to do what the justices did to Christa Pike

If you subscribe to Balls & Strikes, you will make Sam Alito feel angry and upset

There are few friendlier places for oil companies than the United States Supreme Court

"If the Court will not treat capital cases with the care they deserve, the American people should ensure that it can no longer stop other courts from doing so."

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 6, 2026, 2:05 PM

Generally not a great sign

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 6, 2026, 11:45 AM

Tierra Walker deserved better than this

We don't mean to alarm you, but the legal system's capacity to hold polluters accountable for climate change might depend on the Supreme Court

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 5, 2026, 6:26 PM

To those of you protesting that you already subscribe to lots of publications, our response is simple: Unsubscribe from a bad one and subscribe to Balls & Strikes instead

The conservative legal movement's war on abortion care is causing preventable deaths

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 5, 2026, 2:05 PM

The Supreme Court's first case of the new term is an oil company's effort to avoid accountability for climate change harms

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 5, 2026, 11:45 AM

The start of a new Supreme Court term is a great time to subscribe to Balls & Strikes. Only $5/month or $50/year if you're extra cool

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 1, 2026, 8:38 PM

Let's talk about the decline and fall of SCOTUSblog

@ballsandstrikes.orgOct 1, 2026, 6:26 PM

Banning media outlets because you think they're too mean is about as cut and dry as violations of the First Amendment get
