Let me start this with a hypothetical. Trust me, it's important to the context. Cast your mind back to your youth, especially your 20's and 30's. At one time or another, we all wanted something. And we didn't just want...
There's an old saying, history is made at night and it was made last night. Rulings from the Supreme Court have been leaked before, but never an opinion. Chief Justice John Roberts is said to be incensed and looking...
