I guess his lawyers finally told him that truth is a defense to a defamation action? https://www.foxnews.com//falwell-jr-drops-defamation-liber

Supreme Court tosses Texas AG's challenge to election results: ORDER IN PENDING CASE - TEXAS V. PENNSYLVANIA, ET AL. The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.... Statement of Justice Alito, with whom Justice Thomas joins: In my view, we do not have discretion to deny the filing of a bill of complaint in a case that falls within our original jurisdiction. See Arizona v. California, 589 U. S. ___ (Feb. 24, 2020) (Thomas, J., dissenting). I would therefore grant the motion to file the bill of complaint but would not grant other relief, and I express no view on any other issue. https://www.supremecourt.gov//courtorde/121120zr_p860.pdf

Rev. Raphael G. Warnock writes:

We celebrate the life and mourn the passing of one of the most influential and inspirational lawyers and jurists in American history, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsbur...g. By means of her towering intellect and unflinching courage, she blazed a path toward a better life for American women, and all Americans. Under no circumstances should the Senate consider a replacement for Justice Ginsburg until the inauguration of our next President. But with the ACA set to come before the Court within weeks and the Right's lavishly funded and politically ruthless campaign to capture the Court poised to continue, how do you think the progressive legal community should prepare for this next phase in the Court’s history?

There are many peoplewho also bear responsibility...They sit in newsrooms. They sit in C-suites of Fortune 500 companies. They sit in law offices. They sit in churches. They sit in the halls of Congress. They sit in statehouses." - @Sifill_LDF https://nbcnews.to/2Km38HP

We mourn the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a pioneer in the legal profession and legal academy, a champion for equal justice under the law for all, and a dear friend to Duke Law School. #RBG

Do you recognize this man?

Duke Law Prof. Guy-Uriel Charles says Trump's call to Raffensperger over Georgia votes is "absolutely outrageous and completely unacceptable." "It seems pretty clear that the president was asking the secretary of state to commit election fraud."

Tucked inside the National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 6395), which just became law, is a new requirement for federal military and civilian law enforcement personnel involved in the federal government's response to a ‘civil disturbance’ to wear visible identification of themselves and the name of the government entity employing them.
