December delivered constitutional chaos with two emergency Supreme Court cases and a preview of January's landmark docket. From federal agents facing $10,000 bounties in Chicago to immigration judges exposing government corruption, plus six blockbuster cases that could reshape American law for decades.

• Trump v. Illinois - Presidential emergency powers meet federalism

• Margolin v. NAIJ - Immigration judges challenge speech restrictions

1. Chevron v. Plaquemines - $744M WWII contractor liability
2. Little v. Hecox - Idaho transgender sports ban vs. equality rights
3. CSX Galette v. NJ Transit - State corporation sovereign immunity
4. Wolford v. Lopez - Hawaii gun permits vs. Second Amendment
5. M&K Employee Solutions v. IAM - $4.4M pension timing dispute
6. Trump v. Cook - Presidential removal of Fed Governor

Bottom Line: December's emergency cases and January's preview demonstrate how Supreme Court decisions directly impact daily American life - from federal law enforcement to mortgage rates to constitutional rights.
