So we can assume the four liberal justices will vote one way and the four nazis will vote to continue spying on everyone in the whole fucking country.
That leaves it up to Kennedy. As usual. Hope he doesn't wake up constipated that day.
That is naive. You cannot not know what you know. You can pretend to ignore what you know, but it does not stop you from knowing it. And so your decision is with you knowing whatever you know, and you cannot make a decision that is without you knowing what you know. So a jury will decide with what they know, even if they pretend otherwise. Pretending things is not the same as them being really as pretended.
