Obama Calls Supreme Court Immigration Decision 'Heartbreaking'

President Barack Obama said today that the Supreme Court's "heartbreaking" decision to block his immigration executive action "takes us further from the country that we aspire to be."

Supreme Court hands down decisions on affirmative action, immigration

The United States Supreme Court finally ruled on major cases about affirmative action and immigration on Thursday, as it released four decisions and a per curium opinion.

In the widely anticipated case about affirmative action, the Supreme Court affirmed, in a 4-3 decision from Justice Anthony Kennedy, a lower court ruling that allowed the University of Texas to use a race-conscious admissions policy under the Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause.

“The Court’s affirmance of the University’s admissions policy today does not necessarily mean the University may rely on that same policy without refinement. It is the University’s ongoing obligation to engage in constant deliberation and continued reflection regarding its admission policies,” Kennedy said.

But in a 4-4 tie, the divided Court said in a one-sentence per curium opinion that the judgment of the lower court in the immigration case, United States v. Texas, was confirmed, leaving in place an injunction against President Barack Obama’s recent deferred immigration policies.

The Long-term Menace of a Hillary Win: Decades of a Liberal Supreme Court

The Supreme Court has ruled (I changed the start of this paragraph since it has now been decided) on President Obama’s go-it-alone executive action protecting millions of undocumented persons against deportation. However it comes down, the decision will again inflame this bitterly divided nation; it will also remind moody Republicans why they must absolutely vote for Donald Trump.

Heads-up to Republicans queasy about Trump: there is no question – none at all – that Hillary Clinton’s picks to fill the seat of deceased Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and other judges who may shortly retire would embed and extend President Obama’s progressive agenda for decades to come. If voters don’t like Obama’s single-handed upending of our immigration laws, his push towards Big Labor, or if they disagree with his purposeful extermination of U.S. fossil fuels industries, Donald Trump is their only choice.

Another Obama EO defeat in SCOTUS

Which means absolutely nothing if the Obama administration simply doesn't deport people.
