George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley appeared on the Hannity show this weekend and talked with guest host Kellyanne Conway about the drama we saw unfold on the Supreme Court this week.
Turley suggested that the majority wing of SCOTUS is tired of the antics of the leftist minority of the court.
He noted that the ‘histrionics and the hysteria’ are just too much.

KELLYANNE CONWAY, “HANNITY” GUEST HOST: For anyone against unchecked government power, this was a very, very good day.
Here now with analysis, FOX News contributor Jonathan Turley.
Jonathan Turley, what an incredible day at the Supreme Court.
Let’s have you break it down. And also I think people are very curious how this does impact things like sanctuary city funding, birthright citizenship and other issues at play.
JONATHAN TURLEY, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR: Well, thank you, Kellyanne.
I think that the first thing the president should do is go buy a lottery ticket because he’s having a heck of a week and if I was going to get a lottery ticket, it’s probably be today.
But this is a huge win for him. It does negate what has been a stumbling block. These judges have been throwing sand in the works in many of his policies, from immigration, to birthright citizenship, to DOGE cuts. That will presumably now be tamped down.
If these judges try to circumvent that, I think they’ll find an even more expedited path to a Supreme Court that’s going to continue to reverse some of these — lift some of these injunctions.
As you noted, the opinion was really radioactive in this take-down of Justice Jackson. I — it’s rare. I’ve been — I’ve been covering the Supreme Court for decades. It’s rare to see that type of exchange.
The important thing to remember is that, you know, Justice Barrett delivered what was essentially a pile driver but she didn’t do it alone. I mean, her colleagues signed on to this and I think it’s very clear that the majority is getting tired of the histrionics and the hysteria that seems to be growing a bit on the left side of the court. But this was really an astonishing uh takedown by the justice.
But it’s the — it’s the hyperbole that’s coming out of the dissent that is so notable. Justice Sotomayor in that Maryland case said that giving parents the ability to opt out of a few lessons was going to, quote, create chaos and probably end public education. Then you had Justice Jackson saying this could very well essentially be the death of democracy. It’s the type of hyperbole that most justices have avoided.
