The new SCOTUS decision that if a lower court decides an action is unconstitutional, it won't delay implementation of the action nationally. It will only delay it for those named in the lawsuit.
This will allow Trump or a state to do anything that's blatantly unconstitutional and immediately implement it. There is no recourse except for individuals who get a lawyer and sue. It can take years to go through the legal system and finally reach a Supreme Court decision that will apply nationally. All during that time, the unconstitutional action will remain policy and could damage people's rights and lives.
This is the new way that a dictator can toss out the rule of law and do anything he wants.
