Sonia Sotomayor: “There have been exceptions, citing President Andrew Jackson's defiance of an 1832 Supreme Court ruling.”

In the end, to the Court, the facts do not matter, even though the consequences are serious.

The reason the district court found intentional discrimination even after affording such deference to the Alabama Legislature is simple: The record is crystal clear.

Today, the Court discards that democratic regime in favor of one that distorts the structure of Government to fit the majority’s theory of unitary, total executive control.

Because the Court today errs by reducing the burden, at least in the sports context, that the Constitution places on state actors when classifying based on sex, I respectfully dissent.
