 Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch has given Joe Biden a terse warning over the president’s plans to shake up the structure of the Supreme Court.“I just say: Be careful,” Gorsuch told Fox News Sunday.The justice, appointed by Donald Trump, did not weigh in directly about Biden’s proposed term limits and other reforms for the court, saying it would not be “helpful” during an election year, but emphasized how important it is for the high court to remain independent. “If you’re in the majority, you don’t need judges and juries, to hear you, to protect your rights, if you’re popular,”...

Nicknaming President Joe Biden “Sleepy Joe” doesn’t seem to be looking so good for Donald Trump now that he’s the old man in the race.A Morning Consult poll published Monday revealed that voters are suddenly viewing Trump as the decrepit candidate after Biden dropped his campaign. Americans are apparently far more likely to describe Vice President Kamala Harris as healthy, mentally fit, and a strong leader than the 78-year-old Republican presidential nominee.According to the poll, 71 percent of respondents agreed that Harris was “in good health,” while 52 percent said the same about Trump—6 percent fewer than believed the same...

An image shared on Threads claims President Joe Biden has purportedly ordered the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to arrest six U.S. Supreme Court justices. The claim is false. On July 5, Politifact reported the claim was false. There is no other evidence to support the claim. Fact Check:. New...

FACT CHECK: Has Joe Biden Ordered The DOJ To Arrest Six Supreme Court Justices?

Missouri State

The conservative Supreme Court has surprisingly chosen not to help out their buddy Donald Trump for once. On Monday, the high court declined to postpone Trump’s hush-money trial sentencing, after Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey tried to sue the state of New York to delay the legal proceedings. Bailey also sought to remove Trump’s gag order on claims that it violated the First Amendment rights of voters who could not hear the former president and convicted felon speak.The case was a long-shot effort, but still, it is surprising given the Supreme Court’s decision to grant Trump near total immunity last...

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

Usha Vance tried to walk back her husband’s comments about “childless cat ladies,” but couldn’t quite explain away his misogynistic rhetoric. In a taped interview that aired on Fox & Friends Monday, Vance spun her own toned-down interpretation of J.D. Vance calling Democrats “a bunch of childless cat ladies” who “want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.” She said that, unlike everyone else, she’d actually paid attention to the “context” of his quote. “The reality is, he made a quip in service of making a point that he wanted to make that was substantive, and it had...

It’s been a month since the Supreme Court announced its ruling on presidential immunity, and now President Donald Trump’s election interference case is set to resume. On Friday, the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling was sent back to the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals, which, in turn, sent it immediately down to Judge Tanya […]

Kevin Roberts styles himself as a modern Prometheus, and thinks he’s here to bring the fire. The president of the Heritage Foundation’s forthcoming book, Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America, opens with metaphors about fires, claiming that in 2020 “our country went up in flames” and now it’s time to “fight fire with fire.” Using the massive California forest fires of 2020 as a stark, vivid metaphor, Roberts argues that America’s institutions have become “deadwood in a forest,” and that conservatives “can’t merely continue putting out fires”; they must be “brave enough to go on the offense,...

Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance appeared at a Kamala Harris rally in Phila—oh, it wasn’t a Harris rally? Then why on earth did he bring a massive sign that said “KAMALA”?Donald Trump’s gaffe-prone running mate appeared at his own rally in Philadelphia Tuesday, where he stood in front of a sign that said, “KAMALA CHAOS”—only it didn’t quite read that way.Vance had invited several people onstage with him to speak about the ways they’d been negatively affected by the Biden administration’s policies, specifically immigration. However, the small crowd that lurked behind Vance covered the word “CHAOS” on the low-hung...

The behind-the-scenes machinations behind the Supreme Court’s sweeping presidential immunity decision reveals that Chief Justice John Roberts has “lost his authority” and ability to broker compromises on the thorniest and most impactful issues, a legal expert says.

Hints of Donald Trump’s cognitive decline have been seen for the past several months, perhaps even years, as he campaigns to return to the White House, and experts are noticing.The health and science publication STAT spoke to several experts in memory, psychology, and linguistics about patterns in Trump’s speech, which seems to growing more incoherent. Comparing his speeches from this year to those from 2017, researchers discovered that Trump uses shorter sentences, confuses his word order more often, repeats words and topics, and frequently goes on tangents.  These changes in Trump’s speech could be due to something as benign as mood...

Most people are guilty of doing it at least once in their lives, many people do it by accident, some do it because they find it fun, and others do it for reasons like honoring loved ones. Regardless of the situation, just about everyone has released a balloon. The difference is that intentionally releasing balloons is now illegal by House Bill 321’s standards.

At Donald Trump’s Thursday’s press conference at Mar-a-Lago, the former president compared himself favorably to Martin Luther King Jr. After incorrectly claiming that “no one was killed on January 6th,” Trump went on to gloat that the crowd at his insurrection rally was larger than the March On Washington, which Martin Luther King Jr.’s historic speech at the Lincoln Memorial. “Nobody’s spoken to crowds bigger than me,” said the former president. “If you look at Martin Luther King when he did his speech and you look at ours...we had more.” Trump on his January 6 speech: "Nobody has spoken to...

With hurricane season posing a consistent threat six months out of the year, who would not like a little help getting their home ready for the harsh weather to come? Senate Bill 7028: My Safe Florida Home Program, approved by Governor DeSantis on April 24, 2024, and effective as of July 1, appropriates a one-time total of $200 million from 2024 to 2025 for the purpose of funding hurricane mitigation grants and inspections, as well as outreach and administration costs, to support homeowners in Florida.

Kamala Harris entered the presidential race with a worrisome deficit of working-class support. In an average of matchups after the June 27 presidential debate, Trump led Harris among voters who did not graduate from college by 11.6 percentage points, a slightly larger margin than the 11.2 percentage points by which Trump led Biden (whose conspicuously poor debate performance was the reason for doing such polls in the first place). For a brief while it looked as though Harris might worsen her standing among working-class voters by choosing Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, whose record on labor was not good. Instead, she...

Tim Walz Is a Dream Pick for the Labor Movement

In June the Supreme Court took an ax handle to federal regulatory agencies in Loper Bright v. Raimondo and SEC v. Jarkesy. Both decisions were written by Chief Justice John Roberts, but cutting the administrative state down to size is especially dear to the heart of Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch, so he wrote concurring opinions in each case, taking the anti-regulatory argument a bit further than the majority. Now Gorsuch has folded a sort of Classics Illustrated version of those opinions into a new book, Over Ruled: The Human Toll of Too Much Law.Gorsuch’s target is bigger than just the...
