Ketanjii Brown Jackson ought to rile things up a bit.  

 

Not really.   She will rule on cases about identical to her predecessor.  Really changes little to nothing in the court.   She too will think the constitution is a breathing document and its the courts responsibility to make social justice happen.  Just like the other two liberal women on the court.

6-3 on anything controversial anyways.

Well 5-4 on some because Roberts doesn't like to always vote by his interpretation of the Constitution and instead will vote not to rock the boat.

Roberts can't always be counted on but another 6-3 in West Virginia v. EPA.  He's not much a fan of 5-4 decisions so I would expect him to swing to the majority in a lot of future cases.
