Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh spoke at a judicial conference for the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which hears appeals from Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Justice Kavanaugh said that unpopular rulings tend to become the fabric of constitutional law, pointing to the unpopular decision at the time in Brown v. Board of Education, which held that separating children by race in schools is unconstitutional. This is often the case, but the nation has become so polarized that you immediately see today, when a Judge rules, they turn to who appointed him to the bench. The presumption is that they rule not according to the Constitution but according to the political party that they are affiliated with.
Justice Kavanaugh made it clear that his family receives 24-hour security protection since, in 2022, a California man traveled to his house with alleged plans to assassinate him; outraged over pending decisions in cases dealing with gun rights, he wanted to see terminated and abortion, which he viewed should be allowed at any time before birth. Such issues have been so polarized by the press that the underlying security in this country is under assault. COVID unhinged a lot a people for a fair amount cannot withstand being locked down even in their home. That is why, in prison, they routinely throw people in what inmates call the “hole” to break them down mentally and force them to plead guilty when they lack the evidence for a fair trial.
Protesters also gathered outside Kavanaugh’s home following the high court’s ruling in 2022 overturning Roe v. Wade, which had given women a national right to abortion and sent the issue of abortion back to states to decide. Let’s make it clear: the Constitution says nothing about the right to have an abortion, and this is how the question of murder takes on a gray area. When is killing the unborn murder?
These people seem to think their view of the world should be forced upon the rest, and that is certainly not the foundation of civilization, where it ONLY works when we all benefit. Those who have been so intent on abortion rights lack the intelligence to understand that they are merely pawns in a chessboard game to reduce the Population carried out by the Gates and Rockefeller Foundations. Justice Ginsberg, who was appointed to the Supreme Court because she was a woman’s advocate, made it clear that Roe v Wade had NOTHING to do with a woman’s claim right to kill her unborn; it was about population control, telling women it was their right – and they got away with it. She made that clear, which was reported in the press when they were not so antagonistic to the truth.
Justice Kavanaugh told federal judges: “Stay as far away from politics as possible.”
“It’s an everyday thing. I don’t think it’s a ‘flip the switch.’ It’s showing up every day in the courtroom
and trying to be respectful of the parties in a way that is clear and understandable.”
I was offered the job of Chief Economic Adviser in the Bush, Jr. White House. I declined. Because we have offices around the world and I have advised Japanese and German automobile companies, it was plain to me that going before the Senate for an approval hearing means that they would call me a traitor because I advised non-Americans. Our staff is of every ethnicity, race, religion, gender, and persuasion, straight/gay. We are like a mini-UN where everyone gets along and brings their culture to the table. When you deal with politics, you are just the hated enemy of the opposite view.
I know others who have turned down job offers at the Federal Reserve and other institutions. If you are married with children, it is no longer a question of your personal career desire—shall you put your children at risk in school because of a parent’s political affiliation?
This has gone way too far. A nation this divided by such hatred cannot possibly stand.

Marjorie Taylor Green and Thomas Massive together brought a motion to the House floor to remove Speaker Mike Johnson from office. However, a considerable number of Democrats joined Republicans in a 359-43 vote to table the motion and protect Johnson’s speakership.
Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) aligned with MTG and Massie. Eight Republicans including Andy Biggs, Chip Roy, Eric Burlison (R-Mo.), Eli Crane (R-Ariz.), Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), Alex Mooney (R-W.Va.), Barry Moore (R-Ala.) and Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.) all voted to remove Johnson and create an unknown outcome, perhaps even a Democrat speakership.
After the failed effort to remove him, Republican Speaker Mike Johnson spoke to the media. WATCH:
.
I do not see any way this effort to remove Mike Johnson would benefit candidate Donald Trump, the MAGA movement, or the semi-supportive/passive-aggressive Republican Party that genuine MAGA has to contend with.
It also seems strange that many Democrats did not relish supporting the stupid effort and making a mess out of Congress in an election year. Factually, the only beneficiaries of this chaos scenario, a scenario that could have resulted in legislation to block Trump from office, would be Democrats and perhaps Ron DeSantis or RFK Jr. {BACKGROUND}

Blue states that implemented minimum wage hikes are seeing a drastic rise in food prices. Fast food chains like McDonald’s, Chick-fil-A, Chipotle Jack in the Box, Burger King, Domino’s, and more have reported menu item hikes in places like California that now require a much higher minimum wage.
This comes at a time when fast-food establishments are struggling to make ends meet. Last week, numerous establishments like Taco Bell, Starbucks, KFC, Pizza Hut, McDonald’s, and others noted a downtick in quarterly earnings. Fast food was once a cheap and quick alternative to the grocery store before inflation turned any outside dining experience into a luxury. Fast food chains that tend to attract upper-middle clientele like Chipotle have not seen as drastic of a reduction, but value clients earning >$45,000 annually, the core base that these establishments relied on, are not able to eat out.
McDonald’s said it has adopted a “street-fighting mentality” to attract new clients, but that will be a hard target to achieve domestically due to supply chain constraints, food inflation, and now minimum wage requirements. Fast food restaurants saw a 5% price increase overall in March, but states like California are witnessing prices surpass anything that the value client could once afford.
Effective April 1, fast food workers in California now receive a minimum wage of $20 thanks to a new law, AB 1228, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom. California already had one of the highest minimum wage brackets in the country at $15.50.
Chipotle, one of the few establishments that did not post a quarterly loss, was forced to raise prices between 6% and 7% across all 500 California-based locations. “The state isn’t making it easy,” Chipotle Chief Executive Brian Niccol reportedly said. The Wall Street Journal reported that menu items at Chic-Fil-A in California have risen by as much as 13% since mid-February.
Expect companies to begin issuing much smaller portions and automating their workforce. These measures are always passed down to the consumer, and in this instance, the target consumer is already priced out. McDonald’sis already looking at expanding internationally in places like China where it has become more profitable to conduct business. Politicians like Newsom pass these laws that sound great when spoken to the crowd but they are never properly executed because they go against the free market.
