The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) ruled that state laws allowing for the counting of mail-in ballots after election day are not in violation of federal law, a blow to the Republican National Committee and President Donald Trump’s administration.
On Monday, SCOTUS issued a 5-4 ruling that permits states to count mail-in ballots — sent on or before election day — that are received by state election officials after election day.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote the majority’s opinion, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts as well as Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Monday’s bombshell Supreme Court ruling established that “election day” isn’t really election day at all; it’s a period of time. Specifically, the court decided 5-4 in Watson v. RNC that states could count mail-in ballots even if they were received after the election date, as long as they were postmarked in time. Naturally, many conservatives, including President Trump, were deeply disappointed by the decision, which to many seemed to defy common sense and the notion of election integrity. California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) and his ilk were almost certainly cheering; after all, they still haven’t certified the governor’s primary, which was held on June 2.
A clown show.

The Supreme Court on Monday declined to take up President Trump’s appeal of the $5 million sexual abuse and defamation verdict that followed a lawsuit by former advice columnist E. Jean Carroll.
Now Trump will have no choice but to pony up the $5 million to the 82-year-old, who has repeatedly claimed that the president sexually assaulted her in a Bergdorf Goodman fitting room during the mid-1990s.
Trump’s lawyers argued that, as president, he should not be distracted from his executive duties in order to deal with “decades-old, false allegations.”

Just as his party is overrun by communist revolutionaries, Barack Obama has decided to take center stage in a frenetic public relations campaign, ostensibly to promote his so-called library.
He’s here, there and everywhere, silkily opining about everything under the sun, except the only thing that matters: the disintegration of his party. Like Nero playing the fiddle while Rome burned, Obama is curiously detached from the disaster he helped create.
Democrats desperately need a leader to rally around, but all they have is Obama.
He is the only former Democratic president who is still sharp, charismatic and dynamic enough to take up the mantle.

We're headed into the dog days of summer, so it's not surprising that the topic of air conditioning is on the minds of many Americans these days. A heatwave has been pummeling much of Europe for the past week, and the East Coast of the United States is about to be placed firmly under a "heat dome," with temperatures expected to climb into the 100s later this week in Virginia and North Carolina. Our ACs will be humming, to be sure, along with the usual warnings of possible "rolling brownouts" to keep the power grids operational during the surge in usage.
And no one is loving our temperature-controlled houses, more

The United States and Iran will reportedly "stand down for now” after a weekend of military skirmishes in the Strait of Hormuz, and both sides will try to reboot peace talks in Qatar this week.
Officials told multiple news outlets, including Axios, CNN and Fox News, that there was an easing of tensions after several days of exchanging fire near the Strait.
“Technical talks are slated to continue on all areas of the MOU. Both sides will stand down for now and vessels can move freely," the White House told Fox News.
Axios reported that the two sides will resume talks in Doha on Tuesday.

For the last decade, legacy news outlets have produced endless handwringing over the rise of President Trump and “MAGA-aligned” Republicans. And what some have called a “hostile takeover” of the Republican Party has indeed been a problem, arguably turning the party into a personality cult. But at least it has been acknowledged. The radical progressive and socialist takeover of the Democratic Party poses an equal, if not greater, problem. But one would hardly know it, given our media’s selective sense of urgency. The last three years have seen a flurry of activity both inside and outside the political space, suggesting

A Paris politician blamed Americans and US air conditioning for the record-breaking heatwave in Europe that has resulted in more than 1,300 excess deaths.
After US tourists mocked France over the lack of air conditioning across the country amid 104 degree temperatures, Audrey Pulvar, deputy mayor of Paris for international relations, claimed the situation was partly America’s fault. “Dear American journalists and social media ‘influencers’: for days, some of you have been criticizing and making fun of Paris because the city does not have A/C in every room…OMG, this is so rich!” Pulvar wrote on social media.
“As the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions in the world,

The growing use of digital price tags at Walmart and other big US retailers is stirring fresh anxiety that prices on groceries and other basic goods could be subjected to high-tech manipulation — and labor unions are looking to capitalize on the fears.
Walmart said it is rapidly installing the tags — which can raise or lower the prices displayed on their tiny LED screens en masse with the click of a button — in all of its 4,600 US stores by the end of the year. The idea, Walmart says, is to free staffers from the decades-old, time-consuming task of switching out paper tags slotted on shelves.

Kyiv — Once Russian soldiers reach certain parts of the front lines of the war in Ukraine, they can expect to live an average of just 20 to 35 minutes, according to a grim estimate by Russian military bloggers, cited by Oxford historian Peter Frankopan in a Foreign Policy report. CBS News has not independently verified the claim. But similar accounts are becoming increasingly common on Russian military channels, suggesting that more Russians are becoming aware of the war and its toll on their side — a toll Kremlin officials have long sought to shield from view.
The war has inflicted staggering losses on Russia's young men.

Expert stock picker Nancy Pelosi revealed her post-Congress retirement plan Monday.
The 86-year-old Pelosi has spent 40 years in Congress, building an incredible stock portfolio while leading the Democratic Party, and will finally retire in January. Her next project will be a fake “bipartisan” academic center at the University of California, Berkeley, aptly named the Nancy Pelosi Institute, where students and future civic “leaders” will be brainwashed beginning in January 2027. “I think all of us in public service who have an opportunity to do so want to use our experience to train leaders for the future,”

The captain of the Cape Verde soccer team is being accused of raping his female translator in her hotel room just before the start of the World Cup games, a report says.
Ryan Mendes, 36, is being accused of attacking a Brazilian woman whom his team hired to translate for him when the Cape Verde team played in New Zealand back in March, the New York Post reported. The translator, who has not been publicly identified, claims that she informed at least three Cape Verde soccer officials, but nothing came of her complaint.
With a population fewer than 620,000 people, Cape Verde is the smallest nation ever to reach the World Cup.
