Royce White hosts solo, unveils the show’s new weekly format, celebrates Prince and the Minnesota Sound, and reveals his distant family connection to the music legend. He traces his family legacy through his Republican great-grandfather, one of St. Paul’s earliest black police officers, and the strong patriarchs who maintained family and neighborhood order. Royce condemns urban “teen takeovers,” argues that police have been politically restrained, and praises Greg Bovino’s aggressive approach to law enforcement. He attacks the Supreme Court’s rejection of Trump’s proposed mail-ballot restrictions, singles out Brett Kavanaugh, and argues that J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio lack the force required to secure elections and carry out…
State of the Union: Justices Alito and Thomas dissented and Kavanaugh signaled fight could return. The post SCOTUS Blocks Trump’s Mail Voting Restrictions Ahead of Midterms appeared first on The American Conservative .
The Supreme Court ruled Monday to block President Donald Trump’s restrictions on mail-in ballots ahead of November’s midterm elections. In a 7-2 ruling, the court rejected an emergency application filed by the Trump administration seeking to lift a lower court’s injunction that blocked a new Postal Service rule on mail ballots. The Supreme Court found the administration was unlikely to succeed on the merits of its case, though the underlying legal question of whether the Postal Service has authority to enforce Trump’s restrictions remains unresolved. Conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas were the dissenting voices. Justice Brett Kavanaugh concurred with the majority but wrote separately, suggesting the rule…Open
The Supreme Court struck down the U.S. Postal Service's rule restructuring mail-in voting Monday, halting a major Trump administration priority. The big picture: The decision is a major win for voting rights advocates and the states that challenged the administration's plan; it also reverses the Supreme Court's earlier green light for President Trump's mail-in voting order. - The justices' prior unsigned order allowing the rule to proceed was not a ruling on the merits — but this time around, they decided the government is "unlikely to succeed on the merits of its challenge." Driving the news: While the court denied the administration's stance, the justices were divided on the merits of the case. - Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote in…

The U.S. Supreme Court shut down a Republican-drawn Missouri congressional map for the second time in three days, leaving voters to decide the redistricting fight at the ballot box this November. The court issued a brief, unsigned order on September 10 suspending a federal judge's ruling that would have forced Missouri to use the new map in the midterm elections. No justice publicly dissented. The order offered no explanation, just a two-word result that ended, at least for now, a weeks-long legal tug-of-war between state and federal courts over which congressional boundaries Missouri voters will use in November. The decision marks the second time in three days the Supreme Court sided against the map. On September 8, Justice Brett…Open
A federal district judge reinstated Missouri’s GOP-friendly congressional map for the 2026 midterms on Tuesday. The ruling came moments after Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh rejected an emergency request to do so in a separate case on the issue. “Missouri is prepared to follow and comply with Chief Judge Clark’s order that binds the state […]

The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 in favor of allowing construction on President Trump’s White House ballroom to continue, after a lower court’s attempt to halt the project. PULSE POINTS WHAT HAPPENED: The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to allow construction on President Donald J. Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom and military complex to continue on Monday, overturning a lower court’s decision to halt the project. The ruling permits the 90,000-square-foot project to proceed despite ongoing legal challenges, which could potentially still result in the project being halted at a later date. WHEN & WHERE: The decision was issued by the Supreme Court on Monday after a previous ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit…Open

Ted Cruz joins Greta Van Susteren for a revealing conversation about Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, the increasingly bitter battle over judicial confirmations, the stakes of the midterm elections — and Cruz’s own presidential ambitions.

He also shares stories from Thomas’s years at Yale Law School, including his unlikely friendship with John Bolton, and explains the powerful influence Thomas’s grandfather had on his belief in…
