I won't argue against the Supreme Court being a political institution. However, I do think the court is more nuanced than popular opinion realizes. The article below shows a nice graphic of how often justices rule together on non-unanimous decisions.

That's really interesting, because it shows even the most liberal and most conservative justices still are in agreement the majority of the time.

Just reading news articles I would never have thought Sotomayor and Alito ruled the same 63% of the time.

I weirdly track SCOTUS opinions. Most of them are incredibly technical.
