A Mixed Day
The Supreme Court ended its session today with a mixed bag. On the one hand, the Court's conservative majority correctly decided that the drawing of political boundaries for state and federal offices was an inherently political issue and, thus, not a matter for the courts. The drawing of political districts is best left to the people and their elected representatives, not unelected judges.

Mueller To Testify
Former Special Counsel Robert Mueller has agreed to publicly testify on July 17th. This announcement comes after Mueller said in his "final statement" that his final statement was his final statement. In his much-hyped press conference to reporters last month, Mueller declared:

Mexico's defense minister announced yesterday that his country has deployed nearly 15,000 National Guard and Army troops to its northern border in order to stem the flow of illegal immigration into the United States.

Tackling Tehran
The same critics who for the past two years have been insisting that warmongering Trump would get us into a war are continuing to attack him as "erratic" for not getting us into a war last week with Iran.

The Peace Cross Can Stay
The Supreme Court’s 7-to-2 decision yesterday allowing a large cross in Bladensburg, Maryland, to remain on public land is a significant victory. The cross was erected in 1925 in honor of 49 local heroes who gave their lives in World War I. Kudos to Kelly Shackelford, President and Chief Counsel of First Liberty Institute, who argued the case before the Supreme Court.

Drone On
Iran has shot down a U.S. drone over international waters. This is not one of those drones you gave your husband for Christmas. These babies are filled with significant technology. The cost for each one range in the millions of dollars.
The media this morning are engaged in their usual charade. It goes something like this: “Iran says they shot down a U.S. drone over their territory. The U.S. claims the drone was in international air space. Who to believe?” Let me help them: Believe your country even when you don’t like your president. |

A Win For Now
Today the Supreme Court overturned a ruling against Christian bakers in Oregon based on last year’s narrow decision in favor of Colorado baker Jack Phillips. It is a win for now.
But the Court continues ducking the fundamental issues at stake. And it cannot continue to do so for much longer. Mr. Phillips is being sued yet again. |

Censoring Conservatives
I've reported in the past on China's social credit rating system. It's George Orwell's Big Brother in real life. And now it's coming to America.
