40. My point was to make clear no one had noted a dissent. Nothing more or less.

It was meant to be informational. You decided, on your own, that I had some hidden agenda, which I've repeatedly tried to rebut, but to no avail because, apparently, you have some hidden agenda or just got pissed that I corrected your untrue statement that cert already was granted well before last week.

And I didn't "ignore" that the vote is internal and not generally disclosed to the public. In fact, I said I had no idea why the three justices who clearly are of the view -- correct in my opinion - that the lower courts properly found the executive order to be unconstitutional. While it is true that more often that not, the position of individual justices on a cert petition is not disclosed, it does happen and I thought it was interesting that it didn't happen in this instance. As i've stated, justices sometimes support, or don't oppose, cert in cases they think should be affirmed. That's far from suggesting that they supported reversing the lower courts as you have falsely claimed is my position.

And if facts matter to you, why haven't you acknowledged your post asserting that cert was granted months ago was factually incorrect? Curious.
