  1. The Supreme Court, the highest of all, Is meant to stand tall and fair in its call. But doubts have arisen, like a creeping vine, That maybe its justice has started to decline. For the Court has been silent, like a voice in the dark, And some fear that it's lost its impartial spark. They worry that politics has led it astray, And that justice and fairness have begun to fray. So now some say that every case That Justice Thomas has touched must be faced And scrutinized anew, with a watchful eye, To ensure that justice was not led astray, on the sly. For a democracy thrives on fairness and trust, On the belief that all voices can be heard, and must, And if we can't trust our highest court of all, Then it's hard to believe in democracy's call.

  2. New evidence found in Georgia election texts could be more damaging for Trump than his controversial phone call, according to former prosecutor Michael Zeldin. The texts suggest a potential conspiracy to illegally obtain and distribute data, and interference with Georgia's election process. The investigation involves members of Trump's legal team, including Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, and could potentially violate Georgia's RICO statute.

  4. The Supreme Court is like the "boss" of all the other courts in the United States. They are supposed to be fair and impartial when they make decisions about important things that affect our country. But lately, some people are worried that the Supreme Court might not be fair and impartial anymore. They think that maybe some of the judges are being influenced by politics or other unfair things. Because the Supreme Court hasn't done anything to show that they're still fair and impartial, some people are really worried. They think that maybe we can't trust the Supreme Court anymore. Some people are even saying that all the cases that the Supreme Court made decisions about while one of the judges, named Thomas, was there, should be looked at again to make sure they were fair. It's really important for our country to be a democracy, which means that we all have a say in how things are done. But if we can't trust the people who are supposed to make fair and impartial decisions, then it's hard to have a real democracy.

  5. Gun violence is worse in Republican states, according to recent analysis. Southern politicians like Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott have been blaming Democratic-run cities like New York for being out of control. But statistics show that New York City has the lowest rates of gun violence in the US mainland, while the southern swath of the country has the highest rates. Rural areas of South Carolina are more deadly than rural areas of New York. The regions with the highest rates of deadly gun violence are dominated by Republicans. Journalist Colin Woodard reports that the Deep South is the deadliest at 15.6 per 100,000 residents. It's time to pass common sense gun laws, including expanding background checks, banning assault weapons, curbing ghost guns, banning high-capacity magazines, fighting gun trafficking, and lengthening the review window for existing background checks.

  6. The notion that former President Trump may have been sent to expose the true nature of some Americans who claim to be "patriots" has been circulating among some circles. The idea is that Trump's controversial presidency and divisive rhetoric have laid bare the bigotry and willingness to trade democracy for personal gain among some supporters. This sentiment was echoed recently when some members of the MAGA movement complained that it was a burden for Trump to attend court hearings as a former president. This attitude was met with criticism from those who believe that if Trump can make time for his ego-driven rallies, he should be able to fulfill his obligations to the justice system. It remains to be seen whether Trump's presidency will ultimately be viewed as a wake-up call for the country or a low point in its history. However, the events of the past few years have certainly highlighted some of the deep divisions and challenges facing the United States. Moving forward, it will be up to all Americans to work together to overcome these obstacles and uphold the principles of democracy that have long been the foundation of the country.
