While Kollar-Kotelly dismissed requests to block three of the provisions, requests to block two other provisions pertaining to a proof of...

The Supreme Court’s order on Monday granting the Trump administration’s emergency request to lift a lower court stay on deportations of certain Venezuelan nationals was unsigned, swift, and unmistakable in its signal—or signals. For now, the executive branch retains its sovereign authority to enforce immigration law . .. The Left’s lawfare brigades remain dug in—launching salvo after salvo—with their campaign of sabotage unfolding in courtrooms and press releases alike, aimed less at justice than at jurisdictional chaos, narrative warfare, and no matter what, thwarting the duly-elected president of the United States. Make no mistake: this is a war of attrition—not...

A day after a bruising defeat in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election, Badger State conservatives were mired in the usual questions, second-guessing, what ifs and — in some corners — recriminations that come with big losses.

In historically high turnout for a spring election in which 2.3 million people voted, Crawford drew nearly 230,000 more votes than Schimel. And for conservatives across the country, the price of...
