Blue slips were meant for nominations like this. Bove should be disbarred instead of nominated to a powerful federal appellate court.

Four of today's big SCOTUS decisions were 6-3 votes along ideological lines. *Nationwide injunctions *Obamacare coverage *LGBTQ+ books in schools *Restrictions to porn access A reminder that Mitch McConnell gave us this court by playing dirty. huffpost.com/entry/mitch-mc…

This is beyond outrageous. DOJ’s Civil Rights Division is out of control. It has forced UVA president to resign to “help resolve” a Justice Department inquiry into the school’s diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. nytimes.com/2025/06/27/us/…

Sixty-one years ago, the Civil Rights Movement achieved a historic milestone by signing the Civil Rights Act of 1964. We honor the countless individuals who fought, sacrificed, and paved the way for this landmark legislation. As we witness efforts to roll back voting rights,

Make no mistake. The criminalization of the vote—targeting voters, those who assist them & those working within our election infrastructure to ensure everyone can vote—is the most potent threat right now to free & fair elections. nytimes.com/2025/07/02/us/…
