A major victory for Hakeem Jeffries, vindicating his strategy on health care through the multiple vying discharge petitions and on the government shutdown. And obviously an epic defeat for Mike Johnson, who basically left these Republicans in vulnerable seats no alternative but to join House Dems

![Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes." When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty-to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy [sic].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kok4aqdr3qnsj6ktfkq76kqz/bafkreibv56orcjfhjc2czd5kkydlzapnuem3xkzbhna4fia27pyajprzvq@jpeg)

Very interesting: Washington Supreme Court Justice Mary Yu (who's retiring soon) won't apply equal protection to invalidate discrimination against the poor because she's afraid of giving SCOTUS an opportunity to further weaken the 14th Amendment. Remarkably candid. www.courts.wa.gov/opinions/pdf...
![YU, J. (dissenting) — I agree with the majority’s summation of federal equal
protection law and its limited application to the issue before us. However, I cannot
overlook the inherent unfairness of disregarding the economic value of community
service used to pay legal financial obligations in Blake1 cases. Thus, I must dissent
from the majority in result.
Nevertheless, I cannot join the analysis proffered by the dissent of Justice
Mungia. I am not persuaded that current federal due process and equal protection
doctrines fit the fact pattern before us, and I am reluctant to attempt to expand
these doctrines at this time. Doing so risks weakening established jurisprudence
that is already being weakened, as the United States Supreme Court “retreat[s]
from meaningful judicial review exactly where it matters most.” United States v.

Natural gas prices in Europe have all but returned to normal since Russia's full scale war in Ukraine. In fact, the only reason for the spike in 2021 and 2022 has been Russia's energy war against Europe, which started even before the full scale invasion of Ukraine. The numbers clearly say that.
