The Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal to the Kentucky Ultrasound Informed Consent Act, which requires "doctors to perform ultrasounds and show and describe fetal images to patients before abortions, as well as play an audible heartbeat of the fetus." Their decision means the law will stay in place.

Brian Fallon was the press secretary for Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign. Now he is the executive director of a far left organization called "Demand Justice" which has repeatedly gone after Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

The U.S. Supreme Court has blocked a subpoena issued by the House Committee on Oversight and Reform to Trump's accounting firm, pending a full appeal. So while the Stay is temporary, it likely will last several months until the appeal is decided. This is part of a full-scale assault by Democrat controlled entities at the federal and state level to obtain (and then leak, of course) Trump's personal financial and tax information. There is a related petition pending regarding a grand jury subpoena to the same accounting firm from the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, which presents similar but distinct legal issues.

On August 13, 2019, we wrote about an extraordinary Amicus Brief filed by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) on behalf of himself and several other Democrat Senators. The Brief was extraordinary because it threatened the Justices with a potential restructuring of the Court if the Justices didn't dismiss as "moot" the first big 2nd Amendment case the Court has taken in a decade. The Brief was panned by right, left, and center as a thinly-veiled and inappropriate threat.

When will these people learn that their ways to voice their displeasure is the only way to push people away from their cause? Protesters blocked the street outside of the Supreme Court on Sunday to mark Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's one-year anniversary. They screamed, "Impeach the motherf*cker!" before they made their way to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's house.

The smears and campaign against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh will not go away despite the obvious lack of evidence he ever sexually assaulted or exposed himself to anyone. The New York Times reporters Robin Pogebrin and Kate Kelly continued this obsession with their new book, determined to keep alive the case against Kavanaugh. The case against Kavanaugh centered around Christine Blasey Ford. The authors continued to use Ford's accusations against Kavanaugh despite the lack of evidence and no one could back up her story. It was not until the end the authors noted that Christine Blasey Ford's lifelong friend Leland Keyser and others did not believe Ford's story.

Donald Trump was elected president. But it wasn't over. There immediately launched an attempt to pressure Electors to change their votes, then an FBI-Democrat collusive attempt to undermine the presidency before it began, and a slow-motion coup to prevent the administration from governing. It's still not over, as Democrats hurl themselves towards the cliff of impeachment.

A new book written by two New York Times reporters, excerpted in an article at the NYTimes, about the nomination and confirmation of Supreme Court Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh purports to raise new evidence about Kavanaugh's supposed sexual misconduct while at Yale. The new accusations do not hold up to scrutiny and are self-contradictory, but that has not stopped Democrat presidential candidates Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Julian Castro, and Robert "Beto" O'Rourke from calling for Kavanaugh's impeachment.

President Trump's administration won a significant victory at the Supreme Court on Wednesday afternoon. The NYT's Adam Liptak reports:
The Supreme Court on Wednesday allowed the Trump administration to bar many Central American migrants from seeking asylum in the United States. The court said the administration may enforce new rules that generally forbid asylum applications from people who had traveled through another country on their way to the United States without being denied asylum in that country.
