As a progressive liberal, I support the liberal tradition of a Supreme Court that embraces judicial restraint!

A plea for judicial restraint in the name of democracy probably won't change the outcome in Dobbs or prevent Roe from being overturned. But it may be important for those who don't want the court to act like a third legislative chamber.

Liberals have criticized the court for its hostility to Congress and to the administrative state. But they need a constitutional theory to counter originalism, rather than simply saying, "We're right, you're wrong." A more robust theory of judicial restraint could curb the court's excesses and reinforce the country's commitment to democracy.

Liberals should rethink their views on suicide and sacrifice themselves to their Sun God in an attempt to cool the climate
