This post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.)
The Supreme Court had a sensational term, issuing rulings on abortion, gun rights and the environment, but they didn’t weigh in on the presidential election, much less overturn it.
