The size of the Court has remained locked at nine justices after a dispute over justices in the 1860s. Source: Why packing the Supreme Court would not be...

PA man heads to early voting box

But the Pennsylvania Supreme Court pushed that deadline back to Nov. 6, even if the ballot lacks any legible postmark. Source: The Supreme Court’s Election Dodge – WSJ

udge Amy Coney Barrett, President Trump’s nominee to succeed the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, is appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee this week. Her confirmation seems very likely.

Sen Whitehouse at Barrett hearing
By: Kevin D. Williamson – nationalreview.com – October 14, 2020 The Amy Coney Barrett hearings have been the kind of goat rodeo that gives goat rodeos a bad name. Some lowlights: Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D., R.I.) came out as a full-blown conspiracy kook, briefly converting the chamber into a “room full of crazy” (“Beautiful Mind conspiracy charts,” Senate Ben Sasse called them) with his hilariously...

Nancy Pelosi's 25 ammendment
You might think the Democrats’ procedural extremism to oust President Trump would wind down as the election gets closer with polls showing a large Joe Biden lead. But that underestimates their fanatic animosity. Now they’re invoking the Constitution’s 25th Amendment to declare the President non compos mentis. Source: Nancy Pelosi’s Insanity Plea – WSJ

Amy Coney Barrett
Everyone has had to make adjustments in 2020. Businesses, schools, law firms and even places of worship have had to meet virtually or find other ways of adapting to the new normal.

Biden pursed lips
Tuesday night’s presidential debate—the first between Donald Trump and Joe Biden—began with a question about the Supreme Court, not surprisingly given the pending nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett.
