Supreme Court officials are escalating their search for the source of the leaked draft opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, taking steps to require law clerks to provide cell phone records and sign affidavits , three sources with knowledge of the efforts have told CNN.

I don’t think Joe will run again but he has to hint at it to keep TFG in play. That’s really hurting Republicans.

Leaders of the European Union agreed on Monday to ban 90 percent of Russian oil imports by the end of the year as part of the E.U.’s sanctions against the Kremlin for invading Ukraine.
This is a necessary move and it will hurt Russia a little bit, but it shouldn’t be celebrated while the EU and some countries like Germany in particular are still on the natural gas teat from Russia. They’ve made noises about gradually replacing Russian gas but so far it’s mostly just talk.

While the proposal falls short of a full ban on handguns, it would effectively limit their number in Canada.
They’ve done over 1,000 interviews at this point and obtained more than 100,000 documents. Nothing is being held up or delayed because people that everyone and their mother knew would delay and stall are in fact delaying and stalling.
