The Daily Cartoon and Live Briefing: Tuesday, June 29, 2021

Flagler Beach won't have fireworks this year but Palm Coast will, in Town Center's Central Park, on July 3.

Today at the editor’s glance: A quiet day for local government except in criminal and county court, where dockets are full: pleas and docket sounding. Transgender: The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on Monday not to take up the case of a transgender Virginia student who sued his school for preventing him from using the boys’ bathroom is a victory for the Gavin Grimm, who graduated in 2017, and who’d won his case when the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in his favor. But the case has relevance locally: the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta, ruling in the case of a St. Johns County student, reached the same conclusion, which may be why the Supreme Court is not yet ready to take up these cases: as long as lower courts have consensus, the higher court prefers not to step in. That means the St. Johns case stands, with jurisdiction over Flagler: the local school board has no legal authority to deny transgender students the right to use the bathroom of their choice. The Tour de France‘s 4th stage today is a relatively flat 150 km from Redon to Fougeres, cutting across interior Brittany from south to north, starting at 7:15 a.m. on NBC’s Peacock. French television’s pool camera work is as good as it gets: this is your chance to get a free tour of one of Frances most irresistible regions. Euro 2020: Round of 16 play: England v. Germany at noon, Sweden v. Ukraine at 3 p.m.

““Dred Scott v. Sandford is undoubtedly among the most reviled Supreme Court decisions, often invoked as a clear example of what judges should not do. Jamal Greene, a constitutional scholar at Columbia Law School, has described it as part of the “anticanon” of constitutional law, which includes Plessy v. Ferguson, of “separate but equal” fame, and Korematsu v. United States, which permitted the Japanese internment. But Greene has argued that the cases, including Dred Scott, are not necessarily poorly reasoned according to the forms of constitutional analysis that we still use today, involving the interpretation of text, structure, and history. Casting Taney as “a villain who ignored the Constitution,” Greene writes, may be “a distraction from the reasonable possibility that the Constitution itself enabled Scott to lose.””

–Jeannie Suk Gersen, “The Importance of Teaching Dred Scott,” The New Yorker, Scott McClanahan, June 8, 2021.
