In an unsigned ruling on Monday, the Supreme Court ruled that states cannot disqualify former President Donald Trump from the ballot for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attacks on the U.S. Capitol. The court held that only Congress can enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which bars former officers of the United States who “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from holding office again, against candidates for federal offices.

In a one-page order on Wednesday evening, the court agreed to decide whether former President Donald Trump can be tried on criminal charges that he conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Trump claims he has presidential immunity from prosecution. The case will be heard in April.

While some justices at oral argument worried about how bump-stock owners would fare under a 2018 regulation that criminalized a product they already owned, others suggested that, with the ability to fire hundreds of rounds per minute, semiautomatic rifles equipped with bump stocks were precisely the kind of weapons Congress intended to bar as “machine guns.”

Since 2017, the Supreme Court has significantly increased its use of the process by which the justices hear and resolves emergency appeals, sometimes known as the shadow docket. Professor Stephen Vladeck has closely tracked that change in recent years and joins Amy to discuss his new book The Shadow Docket.
