You know push polls where pollster tries to get person to give desired answer? CNN’s interview with Trump rape accuser E. Jean Carroll was kind of a push interview. Will you pursue charges? Test dress for DNA? Talk to a lawyer? Will you?
Did they say “please”?
Justices bulk up next term’s docket
This morning the Supreme Court issued orders from last week’s conference. The justices granted review in eight cases...The justices did not, however, act on the federal government’s petitions seeking review of three lower-court decisions blocking it from ending the program known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA.
The justices also failed to act on a petition by Alabama, which is appealing from a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit that invalidated a state law barring the use of what the state calls “dismemberment” abortions and physicians refer to as “dilation and evacuation.” The method is used for virtually all abortions starting at 15 weeks of pregnancy, although those abortions account for only seven percent of abortions in the state. The justices had repeatedly put off review of the state’s petition before finally considering it last week.
The justices are likely to issue additional orders later this week, after all of their merits opinions have been released. They could (although there is no guarantee) act on both the DACA cases and the Alabama abortion case at that time.
Interesting the two they didn’t act on was DACA and abortion. Don’t have the votes?
Just got notice from Diamond and Silk
They are at the “We Built the Wall Telethon” on the border.
Sorry don’t have a link.
