My father wrote his dissertation on the Hughes court. It was never published and his copy was always in his office. This gives me even more of a reason to read it.

All federal courts should be expanded. The last time was 1990, and the US population has increased by 33% since then. A 33% increase at all levels would imply 3 or 4 new Supreme Court justices, 4 new Appellate circuits, and 31 new districts.

On the other hand, should you be bitten by a mosquito that had a drop of AC water fall in her eye, you might wind up with more superpowers.

I'd make one slight change in emphasis to you article. A politician wants exactly. 50% plus 1 vote. Any less, and they lose. Any more, and they have to share the electoral spoils with more people, thus diluting the spoils.

You need an intervention. Unfortunately, real corn (that is, corn grown in Iowa) isn't really good yet. You'll have to wait a few weeks.

I sincerely hope that, in a December 3-2 ruling, the Supreme Court overturns Trump v. US.

In the past 90 years, only 7 justices were appointed by a Republican president who received a majority of votes and didn't conspire with a foreign government to get elected. These were Alito, Roberts, Stewart, Whittaker, Brennan, Harlan, and Warren.

I've listened to all of them, I think. I finished Second Wind a few months ago, and it has been depressing me. The book is great, but the fact that I can't find a cheap Sunfish near me is depressing.

When I was 12, we saw A Capitol B Fourth in person. It was amazing. John Williams directed the national symphony. My dad made us leave halfway through the fireworks, though, to beat traffic.

Your 1619 chapter was great. I always appreciate it when authors read their own works. I usually even show down my listening speed when they do so.

I'd want to ensure the test is well proctored. I don't think Trump has ever passed a test when he didn't hire someone else to take it for him.

True evangelicals (those who believe that converting people to Christian faith is vital) are always suspicious of government involvement in religion because if the government has influenced a conversion, the evangelical doesn't know if the conversion is genuine.
