Justices Sotomayer and Kagan joined in dissent to the decision. Lake Geneva News reported. The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected legislative maps drawn by Gov. Tony Evers and sent the matter back to the state’s high court, which had initially adopted the Democratic governor’s proposed boundaries for the state’s next 10-year maps. The rejection of Evers’ Assembly and Senate districts by the nation’s highest court puts...

SCOTUS nominee, Ketanji Brown Jackson, encountered difficulty answering questions from senators during her confirmation hearing today. Because of Ketanji's difficulty answering many of the questions, Senator Dick Durbin, Senate Judiciary chairman, changed the rules to allow the nominee to use a "Lifeline" to assist in answering the tougher questions. Ketanji used her lifeline to assist her in answering the question, "Define a woman". Ketanji placed a call to Helen Reddy (of "I am a woman" song fame) for assistance on the question not realizing Helen had died years ago. As a backup, Ketanji placed a call to Lia Thomas who...

A new poll has found that former President Donald Trump has a whopping 59 percent approval rating — on the same day that Joe Biden hit an all-time low in his. The survey, conducted by Emerson Polling, found that voters are not being fooled into believing that high gas prices are not Biden’s fault. ‘President Joe Biden has a 43% approval rating, a one-point increase from February, while his disapproval dropped a point to 49%. Looking ahead to the midterm elections, the Republican party continues to hold an advantage: 47% say they will support the Republican congressional candidate, while 42%...

A Walton County circuit judge has rejected a challenge to the constitutionality of “customary use,” a concept that has long allowed the public to use parts of beaches that are privately owned. Judge David W. Green issued a 10-page ruling Monday that turned down arguments by Northshore Holdings, LLC and Lavin Family Development, LLC, which own property along the Gulf of Mexico and contended that customary use violates the state and federal constitutions. The Florida Constitution ensures public access to portions of beaches “below mean high water lines,” often described as wet areas of beaches. But customary use involves dry-sand...

In trials of ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19, the relative risk of mortality varies with strongyloidiasis prevalence, according to research published online March 21 in JAMA Network Open. Avi Bitterman, M.D., from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, and colleagues examined the association between regional prevalence of strongyloidiasis and ivermectin trial results for the outcome of mortality in a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials using ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19. Data were included from 12 trials, with 3,901 patients: four and eight trials took place in regions of high and low strongyloidiasis...

Once again, Twitter comes through as a go-to source for material to write about. So I was a bit amused when I came across this tweet a few days ago, I found it amusing because I have to admit, Star Trek is one of those things I would now classify alongside, say, the MCU movies as being the domain of the bugman. And since bugmen are a little…suspect in my eyes, well, you know. But as it turns out, the text in the tweet comes from an article appearing all the way back in 2005 in the Huffington Post, before...

A leftist dark money group funded by liberal billionaire George Soros is closely connected to efforts to push for confirmation of President Joe Biden’s Supreme Court nominee. Demand Justice, which has advocated for radical left-wing reforms like packing the Court, has aggressively pushed for the nomination of District of Columbia Circuit Court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson for at least around two years. Demand Justice’s shortlist for Court nominees includes Jackson. The group even included her on a shortlist as far back as September 2020. Soros gave at least $1,337,000 and possibly as much as $3,837,000 to Demand Justice between 2018...

New research from Boston Medical Center suggests that hourly patient evaluation and documentation of the birthing plan in the second stage of labor decreases the second-stage of labor duration, the rate of cesarean sections, maternal blood loss, and rates of hemorrhage and transfusion. Published in the Journal of Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, the team identify hourly second stage documentation as a uniquely non-medical intervention performed proactively before delivery. Current interventions to reduce blood loss are typically done reactively post-delivery and there have been no proven interventions to decrease cesarean rates. Patients with hourly evaluation and documentation had a likelihood of...

Two U.S. Senators, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee, have written an official letter to AT&T inquiring into its politically-motivated decision to cut One America News Network (OANN) from DirectTV. Cruz and Lee both press the AT&T Board of Directors for answers regarding the “personal financial” influences that may have swayed the company’s decision. The decision to not renew its contract with OANN was announced by DirecTV in mid-January. DirecTV, which is primarily run by AT&T, has a contract with OANN that is set to expire in early April.

As destructive as the Ukraine war is, Russia is causing less damage and killing fewer civilians than it could, U.S. intelligence experts say. Russia's conduct in the brutal war tells a different story than the widely accepted view that Vladimir Putin is intent on demolishing Ukraine and inflicting maximum civilian damage—and it reveals the Russian leader's strategic balancing act. If Russia were more intentionally destructive, the clamoring for U.S. and NATO intervention would be louder. And if Russia were all-in, Putin might find himself with no way out. Instead, his goal is to take enough territory on the ground to...

The minority factor in Russian army is vastly underrated when discussing the course of Ukrainian war. Firstly, ethnic minorities are not so much a minority there. Judging from the casualty lists, minorities are wildly overrepresented on the battlefields as the cannon fodderWe don't have aggregated data for the entire Russian army. But we can get some idea of who fights in Ukraine from this list of wounded Russian soldiers lying in Rostov hospital. More than half are clearly Dagestani. Magomed (Muhammad) - the most common name in the list of woundedIt makes total sense. As you see almost all Russian...
