.Jim_Jordan tears into credibility of Supreme Court Alito whistleblower in explosive hearing

Rep. Jim Jordan , the House Judiciary Committee's ranking Republican, tore into a former anti-abortion leader who alleged he was informed in advance about the outcome of a 2014 Supreme Court ruling Thursday, casting serious doubt on the whistleblower's allegations that the information came from Justice Samuel Alito.

But rather than focusing on Schenck's allegations about the 2014 opinion, the Ohio Republican ultimately convinced Schenck to admit that some details from a book he wrote in 2018 about the high court were inaccurate. "It had been a minor victory when we persuaded the court that 'reverend' should remain before Paul's name, even though we had been told repeatedly that legal briefs never included such titles," Jordan read from Schenck's book.

"You said you winked because they included 'reverend' in the title, and the transcript says Mr. Rehnquist didn't," Jordan added."One thing I've learned: People who mislead folks on small things mislead them on big things," Jordan said later during the interrogation. Last month, the New York Times published Schenck's account. Politico later reported the outlet spent several months attempting to corroborate his claims and was"unable to locate anyone who heard about the decision directly from either Alito or his wife before its release at the end of June 2014."

Oregon Supreme Court leaves in place order blocking strict new gun lawThe Oregon Supreme Court ruled to keep in place a lower court ruling that blocked a strict new gun law that voters approved by passing a measure on November's ballot. I was just in Portland, and I can't believe the people continue to vote the way they do. It once was a beautiful city, but the number of people living in the streets and the crime, trash, and unsanitary conditions that comes with it is just sad. You should carry protection there.
