They’re referencing Castro v Huerta in which the ignored precedence, including certain aspects of McGirt, to dial back tribal sovereignty in their own territories. Gorsuch wrote the dissent on that one and was not very happy.

"Not happy" might be an understatement. He saw McGirt as a career defining achievement and seeing it overturned by his peers made him furious. Not enough to, you know, actuallydo anything but enough to write one of the most angry dissents put to pen. Thing about Gorsuch is that he's actually drank the Federalist Society kool-aid and thinks he is impartial and in an impartial system, unlike Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and beer boy.
