Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Amy Coney Barrett spoke about the inner workings of the high court — and the lessons it can teach everyone else about bipartisanship — in a Friday afternoon panel discussion. During an hourlong session‚ the Supreme Court stalwarts were asked to speak on how people can disagree better. The topic is part of a theme of the National Governors Association winter meetings‚ which are being held at a downtown ...

Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor and conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett jointly encouraged the nation’s governors on Friday to emulate the Supreme Court’s collegiality‚ despite the divisive political climate.  “I think you can do so much‚ honestly‚ by being seen in public with people who otherwise politically disagree with you‚ to have Republicans and Democrats together‚ friendships across the aisle‚” Barrett said. “I think speaking and reasoning in civil ways‚ I mean‚ those are...

As the Supreme Court prepares to announce some of its most politically explosive decisions in decades‚ two justices from different ideological wings of the court sought to assure Americans Friday that the court is not riven by partisan feuds. Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Amy Coney Barrett appeared on stage together at the National Governors Association conference in Washington to argue that the Supreme Court’s practice of civil collaboration on contentious issues can be a model for other...

 On Tuesday‚ Joe Biden will probably be asleep. Still‚ Michigan will be holding its primary‚ and Democratic strategists and White House aides will be focused on one number: the number of those voting ‘uncommitted.’ It’s a protest vote spurred by scores of Muslim voters incensed over the Biden administration’s position concerning the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. It’s one of the few issues the Biden White House has gotten correct‚ though it hasn’t been without its issues—Biden reportedly called...

The Biden administration has announced a $1.7 billion package to fund initiatives aimed at ending hunger across the U.S. by 2030‚ the White House announced on Tuesday morning. The commitment will go towards funding 141 projects across the nation. The full details of the package are expected to be announced by Doug Emhoff‚ the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris‚ at an event at the White House later on Tuesday. As of 2022‚ around 17 million households experienced food...

Immigration has propelled the U.S. job market further than just about anyone expected‚ helping cement the country’s economic rebound from the pandemic as the most robust in the world. That momentum picked up aggressively over the past year. About 50 percent of the labor market’s extraordinary recent growth came from foreign-born workers between January 2023 and January 2024‚ according to an Economic Policy Institute analysis of federal data. And even before that‚ by the middle of 2022‚...

This has to rank as one of the most economically illiterate and juvenile presidential crusades in recent history. Joe Biden has met the enemy‚ and it is smaller packaging for foodstuffs. The White House is targeting the practice known as “shrinkflation‚” or companies keeping the nominal price of a product the same while decreasing the amount. This‚ naturally‚ is just another way of charging more. If the price is the same‚ but you’re getting only 14 ounces of Wheat Thins instead of 16...

Nikki Haley‚ facing another expected humiliation in Michigan’s Republican primary on Tuesday‚ has a simple answer when asked why she is still campaigning for the GOP presidential nomination when former President Donald Trump appears to be the inevitable nominee. “I’m doing what I think is right‚” she said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. “I’m doing what I believe 70% of Americans want me to do.” That number references polling showing seven in 10 Americans...

President Joe Biden on Monday evening said he thought a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas could be in place in roughly a week. “I hope by the end of the weekend‚” Biden told reporters who asked about the time frame. He spoke while visiting a midtown Manhattan ice cream shop with NBC’s Seth Meyers after taping an appearance on his late night show. “My national security adviser tells me that we’re close‚ we’re close‚ we’re not done yet‚” Biden continued. “My hope is by next Monday we’ll...
