Based on this history, I wonder if one should consider this latest ruling as part of what's been shaping up to be a showdown between the Talwani court & court of appeals vs. the SCOTUS?
Seems like it, because IIRC, the SCOTUS seems to have a ruling pattern with Democratic vs Republican administrations. At first they rule tightly against a Biden lawful and at scale pathway for immigrants to live productive lives here. And the numbers are only in the six figures, IIRC. But when it comes to trump, it seems that they prioritize executive power over law (the immunity card they issued him) and let trump have his way in the racist excluding anyone from the Americas (aligned with his mass deportation goal).
Maybe trump and SCOTUS consider public polling irrelevant. And maybe previous immigration law

mmigration approval declining: Trumps approval on immigration has dropped to 44% approve / 53% disapprove (net -9), and his deportation policy is at 42% / 54% (net -12). Border security remains his only positive issue at 50% / 46% (net +4). Trumps numbers on all three have declined since our last poll in October, 2025.

Kinda thinkin' out loud here, because until recently Americans either believed or were told that "we" are a nation of immigrants. But not now...
as if Americans in 50 states can/should now get used to 180 degree turns in national narrative to get them ready for landmark changes in immigration law. It all seems to add up to serving a corporate America, not a constitutional America.
