    Court strikes down Maryland's congressional map in blow to Democrats.
    Washington Examiner (Moderate Right) • Factual Grade 81% • 3 min read

    Judge Lynne Battaglia, who served as the chief of staff for Democratic Sen. Barbara Mikulski and as President Bill Clinton's U.S. Attorney for Maryland, enjoined the map from being used in the midterm elections, determining that it was in violation of Maryland's Constitution and Declaration of Rights by subverting "the will of those governed."
    ...
    Analysts believed that the new map could make the Republican-controlled seat competitive in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans 7–1 in the congressional seat count. This means that Democrats currently control 88% of the congressional delegation in a state where Biden carried 65% of the vote in the 2020 election.
    ...
    Last week, the Court of Appeals of Maryland extended the deadline for candidates to file to April 15 and delayed the primary election in the state from June 28 to July 19. The move came in response to litigation over the congressional map. If Friday's decision is appealed as is expected, the Maryland Court of Appeals will have the final say in the matter.

Should Justice Thomas recuse himself from cases involving the January 6th attack?

776 votes, 64 comments

Context: Justice Thomas' wife traded text messages with White House Chief of Staff to overturn the 2020 election results.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - The impeachment talk is nuts. But of course Thomas should recuse himself from cases involving his wife. The reputation of the Supreme Court has been suffering for some time and one of the reasons is that the justices think and act like they are completely untouchable no matter what they do. Appearances matter.


No - We get on a slippery slope when we begin to ask people to disqualify themselves because of things their spouse does. I have opinions that differ fro...



Yes - There are various places where we require things of family members beca...
