More signs the public has turned on the corrupt Supreme Court.

The court’s conservatives ripped the mask off the institution in a brief, unsigned decision allowing Alabama to use a racially discriminatory congressional map.

A federal judge is probing whether Trump’s lawyers made the court a “victim of a fraud” by colluding through President Donald Trump’s lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to create his “anti-weaponization” fund. Will the thin black line hold?

ORDER. See attached document for full details. Signed by Judge Kathleen M. Williams on 5/29/2026. (ymd) (Entered: 05/29/2026)

The thin black line holds.

"U.S. ⁠District Judge Christopher Cooper in Washington ​directed the Trump administration to take ​down all physical signage bearing Trump’s name and to eliminate any references to a “Trump Kennedy ​Center” from official materials within 14 ​days."

The Court also temporarily stopped the two-year closure of the Kennedy Center, and allowed ex officio board members to vote, something 47 stopped because they would not comply with his wishes.

35 former federal judges just told a Florida court that Trump and his DOJ deceived it to steal $1.776 billion from taxpayers.

35 former federal judges — appointed by presidents of both parties — marching into a Florida courthouse and accusing Donald Trump of using a fake lawsuit to loot the United States Treasury.

"In their motion to set aside Trump’s voluntary dismissal of the case, the judges accuse the Trump administration of corrupting the judicial process by announcing a “settlement agreement” that was never brought before a judge or filed in the case.

“Movants are filing this motion because they have dedicated their professional lives to the administration of justice,” the judges wrote in their filing.

“The purported ‘settlement’ that the parties never placed before this court raises profound questions about the parties’ candor toward the court and manipulation of the judicial system, which threatens to undermine confidence in the administration of justice,” they added."

A settlement was never brought before the court before the president dismissed his suit against the IRS, according to 35 former federal judges.

Will the Supreme Court once again demonstrate that it is a wing of the Republican Party and do whatever it takes to keep Republicans in power? (I believe the answer will be yes.)

Alabama immediately appealed a lower court decision blocking it from using a...

Part 2. Good news out of Wisconsin.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit against the Wisconsin Elections Commission for refusing to turn over Wisconsin’s complete, unredacted statewide voter registration list. In June, the DOJ demanded the complete voter file — including voters’ full names, dates of birth, residential addresses, and either driver’s license numbers or the last four digits of Social Security numbers — as part of a nationwide investigation into alleged non-compliance with federal voter list-maintenance requirements under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) and Help America Vote Act (HAVA). Today, that lawsuit was dismissed.

Good News out of Maine.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit against Maine and Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) for refusing to provide data on the removal of ineligible individuals and an unredacted copy of its statewide voter registration list. Today, that lawsuit was dismissed.

Roberts' legacy will be that he was a political stooge.

"The Court’s flagrant political bias can also be seen in the fact that the majority allowed an illegal racial gerrymander to stand in Alabama in 2022 because it was supposedly too close to an election to change it, but today is allowing Florida, Tennessee, and Louisiana to redraw their districts less than a month before their elections. Indeed, in Louisiana voting had already started when Gov. Jeff Landry suspended the elections to give time for additional gerrymandering."

The reactionary hacks on the Supreme Court might have gone too far this time.
