Editorial: The New York Times

• The Supreme Court is no longer seen as a legitimate institution of governance that cares about correctly interpreting the law.
• The court’s hard right supermajority has undermined any previous consensus, using originalism to overturn decades of legal precedent.
• The court's rulings now almost invariably line up with the policy priorities of the modern Republican Party.
• Teaching constitutional law has become nearly impossible due to the velocity and ambition with which these legal transformations are occurring.
• Changes in the Supreme Court have resulted in an increasing rejection of judicial supremacy among students, both progressives and conservatives.

Conclusion: In light of these drastic changes, it is crucial for professors to restore faith in the legal system and determine the role the Supreme Court will play in the future.
