The United States Supreme Court last week ended its term with a series of rapid-fire decisions that provoked outrage and surprise, particularly on the political left.What was not surprising, analysts told Al Jazeera, is that the court’s decisions skewed towards the right — a reflection of the six-to-three conservative majority that took shape under former President Donald Trump.In the course of days this past June, the court delivered a wide range of conservative rulings.

It also nixed President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan, stymying one of the Democrat’s signature policy proposals.
