“Eliminating racial discrimination,” Chief Justice John Roberts writes in today’s ruling, “means eliminating all of it.” That ruling released just minutes ago swept aside decades of affirmative-action programs at Harvard, the University of North Carolina, and likely everywhere — even if Roberts reserved a narrow test on other challenges.

The 6-3 decision comes nearly two decades after Roberts’ warning that affirmative action’s days were numbered. Day Zero has apparently arrived in Students for Fair Admissions v Harvard. This comes from the syllabus:

Should have been 9-0!!! Racial discrimination is wrong, whether against Jews (a century ago and making a comeback), blacks, Hispanics, Asians (east , southeast, or south),  or whites.

Kinda hard for SCOTUS to declare affirmative action null and void when they've got Ketanji Brown Jackson sitting right there, the veritable poster child of affirmative action. After all, it's the only reason she got to the court -- black female being her only viable credentials since she couldn't even define what a woman is.
