More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

ERs will become even more overstretched: “There were 155 million visits to emergency rooms in 2022, up from 130 million in 2018, & that number is expected to increase as President Trump’s Medicaid cuts take effect.
