What's interesting is that only Thomas and Alito dissented.

I mean, if you asked me to guess which two of them dissented, I would have been right.

It's interesting that Barrett wrote the opinion.  She made a high profile decision against the tribes last  term with Gorsuch dissenting and was widely seen as the swing vote on Indian law.  Gorsuch seems to be slowly converting her. 

*Speaking of which, I still can't get over Gorsuch writing solo dissents from the left on this issue, as he did in the other tribal sovereignty case today.
