👉 The Supreme Court has increasingly used the 'shadow docket' to issue temporary orders without explanation or debate. 👉 Chief Justice John Roberts has been a leading proponent of this practice. 👉 The use of the shadow docket allows Roberts and other conservative justices to avoid debating or explaining their decisions. 👉 The practice is a departure from the court's traditional role of issuing reasoned opinions. 👉 The court's use of the shadow docket is a symptom of a larger problem, namely the MAGA movement's aversion to robustly debating ideas.
