Pretty much an outright "we own #SCOTUS" declaration Via Rupar: Pam #Bondi: "Of course we're gonna lose in these liberal district courts, but we will win in the Supreme Court. Donald #Trump will control the budget."
Keep in mind that with the way the US system is structured, lower courts are bound to rule in certain ways even if they themselves know the ruling is incorrect just based on the body of law of being handed to them. Often only the SCOTUS can fix faulty precedents.
It's not that they own the Supreme Court. It's that only the Supreme Court can fix the law.

It's not that they own the Supreme Court. It's that only the Supreme Court can fix the law in the US system, so there's nothing particularly strange about losing in lower courts until finally getting to the ones that can actually resolve the cases.
