WASHINGTON – Read the opinions for yourself. That’s the message Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor had Sept. 10 for viewers of the “Late Show with Stephen Colbert” the day after her blistering response to her conservative colleagues’ latest ruling siding with the Trump administration. The majority said the administration can for now resume the indiscriminate immigration-related stops in southern California that sparked protests and charges of racial profiling. In her dissent for the court’s three liberals, Sotomayor said the majority’s decision “is yet an­other grave misuse of our emergency docket.” “We should not have to live in a country where

Not just "wise Latina," but "wise Latina woman" (sic) which is an ignorant tautology from an ignorant Democrat DEI appointee. Lean on her (and KBJ) hard. Maybe she'll quit. They don't belong in any legal setting.

So this low IQ DEI hire runs to failed, unpopular and fired Colbert to cry that her imaginary version of the law is being overruled by the actual constitution. Good! The only folks believing this stuff and cheering are those depicted by John 8:44 Us normies are becoming more and more fed up.

If you are in this country legally you will not be arrested by ICE whether you speak English or not. If you aren’t, you will be deported. Is Sotomayor suggesting that ICE should detain the 70 year old Granny shopping at Home Depot and stay away from the South Americans in the parking lot waiting for day labor jobs? Her argument isn’t rational and does not represent reality.

Her idea that the ethnicity of a person must be ignored was the reason that police descriptions of wanted criminals suddenly no longer contained a description beyond "man," as in, "New York City man... Nashville man... Charlotte man," etc. Same with describing roving gangs of feral blacks rampaging in the streets as "youths." At this point, everybody pretty well knows "the code." When a white man is the accused, his ethnicity is always prominently featured, so if the race is not mentioned, you know it regardless.

Any air of impartiality from Justices Sotomayer and Jackkson have been utterly destroyed by their recent speeches and television appearances. Their dispariging remarks about their fellow justices and legal opinions reveal their biased natures. Ignore the law and Constitution but support social justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion at all costs, including blatant discrimination and ignoring laws. Sotomayer and Jackson should not be Supreme Court Justices (or any other type of Judge).

The Carolina Panthers on Thursday fired an employee who made insensitive social media posts following the assassination of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. Charlie Rock, a member of the team’s communications department, was the staffer fired, a source briefed on the Panthers’ decision confirmed to Fox News Digital. Social media posts linked to Rock appeared to show him questioning why people were sad that Kirk had been shot and killed. The song "Protect Ya Neck" from the Wu-Tang Clan was also shared.

“In retrospect,” Kamala Harris writes of letting Joe and Jill Biden decide on their own whether the then-president should have tried to run for re-election, “I think it was recklessness.” (Snip) “‘It’s Joe and Jill’s decision.’ We all said that, like a mantra, as if we’d all been hypnotized,” Harris writes in the first excerpt of “107 Days” published Wednesday morning by The Atlantic. “The stakes were simply too high. This wasn’t a choice that should have been left to an individual’s ego, an individual’s ambition. It should have been more than a personal decision.” Part of the problem, Harris

Reports surfaced this week suggesting that Chelsea Clinton may be considering a run for Congress in New York's 12th District, where longtime Democratic Representative Jerry Nadler has announced his retirement. The reports about Clinton, the daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, come as Democratic strategists weigh who could consolidate support in a rapidly expanding field. However, she has repeatedly insisted over the years that she has no plans to enter politics. Newsweek reached out to Chelsea Clinton via email for comment. Nadler's retirement marks the end of a three-decade career in Congress, including

Ralph Lange, 66, Wolfgang Klinger, 71, Stefan Berendes, 59, and Wolfgang Seitz, 59, all kicked the bucket within two weeks of each other, the European Conservative reported.

WASHINGTON — Following Charlie Kirk’s assassination, President Donald Trump may be uniquely positioned to tamp down the anger that suffuses American politics and lead a movement to bind up a bitterly divided country if he chooses. But, political strategists and officials from both parties told NBC News, that’s not the path Trump appears to be taking. Trump has been both a target of assassination attempts and a fount of vitriolic rhetoric. He knows firsthand the passions that drive American voters and, were he to renounce partisan attacks and call on others in both parties to do the same, that gesture could potentially send a healing message.

It is almost a quarter-century now since the Sept. 11, 2001 jihad attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York City and Washington. Many Americans assume that the jihad threat was somehow neutralized and contained in the immediate aftermath of those attacks, such that a large-scale jihad attack can never happen again in America, and the public discourse has moved on to other issues: mass migration, skyrocketing crime in the cities, tariffs, and the like. In reality, however, the jihad against the U.S. has not ended, and in the near-quarter century since 9/11, the jihadis have made immense gains.
