Zero chance that the Supreme Court will block the terminations. Expect a shadow docket decision staying the lower court rulings on this.

The lower court ruled the grants had to be restored pending the appeals process, and the appeals court agreed. You think the Supreme Court will override the lower court ruling and re-halt the grants?

Yes I would say it is an almost certainty they will let the grants be re-blocked if you look at prior shadow docket decisions

The judge was quoted as "I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this,” “discrimination against America’s LGBTQ community” “Have we no shame" I do not think the Supreme Court will overturn the ruling. They open themselves to being labelled racists.

We just no longer live in a country where we can trust in the rule of law. I take no solace in predicting the Supreme Court decision correctly on the NIH case. I wish things were different.

We are far past shame of being labeled racists being a brake on this Court. Check out the DHS vs DVD shadow docket decision in which the Supreme Court reversed an injunction, thereby permitting immigrants to be deported to third parties where they had plausible concern of torture.

I don’t know how there could be any doubt about this from the Heritage Foundation captive SCOTUS.
