Levin was all depressed about the PA case last night and was mystified by the Court's immediate rejection of the injunction appeal, when they had made such a big deal about the case beforehand. Why suddenly reject an appeal without comment when you had made such a big deal about it? (He also predicted that the court is going to dismiss the case itself.)
Here's an explanation for the SCOTUS's behavior. The Court hadn't made up its mind. Then, at midnight a few hours before the Court would have to make up its mind, the Texas suit appeared. This suit encompasses the PA case and more, making the PA case unnecessary. So, the Court immediately dismissed the PA appeal.
This a bit on the hopium side, but it explains the inexplicable.
