This week, the Trump admin and Alaska officials announced a ~$50 billion investment by the South Korean government into an Alaska liquefied-natural-gas pipeline. The rub: South Koreans didn’t agree to a specific dollar figure—or even to invest at all. 👀

This is amazing (Alito) content. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Alito, joined by Thomas, wrote in the dissent that the challengers' "Hail Mary pass is unlikely to be successfully completed here" because "the Postal Service has broad
authority to regulate the mail."
He wrote that he took "seriously" the concerns raised about the ability of states to upend their midterm election plans to comply with the new rules "but it is not enough to convince me" to side against the government. Alito pointed to the group of GOP-led states that joined the legal fight to support the administration and blamed the challengers for pursuing a strategy that he said caused more delays.

BREAKING: SCOTUS denies the Trump administration’s request to enforce the new U.S. Postal Service rule for the 2026 elections. Justices Alito and Thomas dissent. More to come at Law Dork. www.lawdork.com
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
No. 26A305
UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE, ET AL. U.
CALIFORNIA, ET AL.
ON APPLICATION FOR STAY
[September 14, 2026]
The application for stay presented to JUSTICE JACKSON and by her referred to the Court is denied. The Government is unlikely to succeed on the merits of its challenge to the District Court's preliminary injunction. And the equitable factors applicable for obtaining emergency relief from this Court do not favor a stay.
JUSTICE KAVANAUGH, concurring.
In my view, based on the briefing the Court has received at this interim stage, there is at least a fair prospect that the final rule falls within the Postal Service's statutory authority. See 39 U. S. C. §401(2). But applying the rule in the 2026 elections would be arbitrary and capricious in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act because state and local election officials do not have sufficient time to reasonably implement the rule before the elections. See 39
U. S. C. §3001(m); 5 U. S. C. §706(2)(A). For that reason, I concur in the denial of the application for stay.
