“Firms
that

Which

frankly,
the
right

strategy.

says

all

The

“Lower-court
judges
are
defying
precedent
and
even
openly
criticizing
Supreme
Court
justices”
Except,
you
know,
shadow
docket
opinions
are
NOT
precedent
and
the
open
criticism
is
“please
take
the
time
to
write
opinions
to
keep
right-wing
cranks
from
phoning
in
violent
threats
to
our
homes.”
Other
than
that,
the
Wall
Street
Journal
op-ed
page
is
making
great
choices.
