Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh likes to explain the court’s rulings.

He has a way with words.
Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh has arisen as a sort of court interpreter, looking to explain what the court is doing. Especially after President Donald Trump has been on a winning streak.
According to The Washington Times, Trump has emerged victorious in most of the court’s emergency docket rulings on challenges to his executive actions.
Nevertheless, the rest of the Justices at the Supreme Court are often mum when it comes to explaining their rulings. Normally they limit themselves to one or two concise paragraphs, leaving the public and lower court judges conjecturing about what´s going on.
But Kavanaugh is different.
In September, in a ruling which the high court set aside, a district judge’s ruling that found that immigration agents were proceeding unconstitutionally in some of their arrests in Los Angeles, Justice Sonia Sotomayor struck into her colleagues, accusing them of creating “a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish and appears to work a low-wage job.”
The Times reported that out of the six Republican-appointed justices, only Kavanaugh penned an opinion, saying that there several motives why U.S. District Judge Maame Frimpong likely got it wrong and that ethnicity, language and jobs can be factors in an immigration arrest.
“Under this court’s precedents, not to mention common sense, those circumstances taken together can constitute at least reasonable suspicion of illegal presence in the United States,” Kavanaugh wrote.
Similarly, in August, it was a case comprising Mississippi’s restrictions on youth access to social media. The high court permitted the law to continue in effect, but Justice Kavanaugh wrote to make clear that the law would likely eventually be struck down as unconstitutional.
