BREAKING: SCOTUS, ON 5-4 VOTE, WILL NOT STOP TRUMP'S FRIDAY SENTENCING IN NEW YORK COURT.
Background at Law Dork: lawdork.com/p/trump-is-layin…
ALT (ORDER LIST: 604 U.S.) THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 2025 ORDER IN PENDING CASE 24A666 TRUMP, DONALD J. V. NEW YORK, ET AL. The application for stay presented to Justice Sotomayor and by her referred to the Court is denied for, inter alia, the following reasons. First, the alleged evidentiary violations at President-Elect Trump’s state-court trial can be addressed in the ordinary course on appeal. Second, the burden that sentencing will impose on the President-Elect’s responsibilities is relatively insubstantial in light of the trial court’s stated intent to impose a sentence of “unconditional discharge” after a brief virtual hearing. Justice Thomas, Justice Alito, Justice Gorsuch, and Justice Kavanaugh would grant the application.

Massive Russian drone, cruise missile, and ballistic missile attack on Ukraine ongoing this morning.
The Ukrainian Air Force has issued dozens of warnings, covering nearly the entire country.

Reports of missiles coming in too fast to keep track of - up to 45 in the air over Ukraine just now, some reports say. This is the big attack the Kremlin has been winding up for for some time, and people in Ukraine have long expected.

The largest worksite raid in history, at a meatpacking plant in MS in 2018, led to 680 arrests. It took dozens of agents, months of planning, thousands of man-hours, and likely cost several million bucks.
Keep that in mind when the administration starts touting splashy numbers.

Gaetz is still under an ethics investigation in the House and was subject to a DOJ investigation into allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a minor and a possible violation of sex trafficking laws.

NEW: “We’re dealing with people who are losing hope, and I can’t wait on the government to decide that they see us as human."
I spoke with Alabama LGBTQ+ advocates and residents about Trump's win. They said they're scared but resilient:

Israel is deliberately blocking humanitarian aid. It is illegal under Section 620I of the Foreign Assistance Act to give military aid to any country that does this.
The Biden administration, in its final days, decided it would rather continue enabling genocide than follow US law
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱Secretary of State Blinken has decided that there will be no change for now to military assistance to Israel following the deadline the U.S. gave Israel regarding the humanitarian situation in Gaza and that expires today, two U.S. officials said. The officials said Israel has taken important steps to address the U.S. concerns regarding the humanitarian situation in Gaza and stressed the U.S. wants to see more steps in the coming days

Because the Supreme Court didn't resolve the legality of Biden's punt in the public charge litigation, a whole lot of regulations could be blocked in courts over the next two months and Trump's administration won't have to lift a finger to repeal them.

In Trump’s own words he is pushing to define a family as mother father and child. If you are in a same sex marriage, and especially if you have children, please take the next two months to put all the protections you can in place legally to protect your family.

Republicans are going to have a 53-47 majority in the Senate, and yet here’s Trump urging the Senate to go into recess so that he can bypass it altogether.
In other words, he wants to install folks who couldn’t even get through *that* Senate.
It’s going to be a long four years.
Any Republican Senator seeking the coveted LEADERSHIP position in the United States Senate must agree to Recess Appointments (in the Senate!), without which we will not be able to get people confirmed in a timely manner. Sometimes the votes can take two years, or more. This is what they did four years ago, and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled IMMEDIATELY! Additionally, no Judges should be approved during this period of time because the Democrats are looking to ram through their Judges as the Republicans fight over Leadership. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU!
