President Biden s Supreme Court commission includes a variety of primarily liberal legal experts, with some conservatives as well, and is tasked with providing the president with a report on the current debate around potential reforms to the court, including court packing.
It is a potpourri of law school professors, retired federal judges and former government lawyers. Some have lauded it as a collection of serious scholars to examine serious issues. Others have called it a smokescreen for Biden to eventually propose court packing. This faux-academic study of a nonexistent problem fits squarely within liberals yearslong campaign to politicize the Court, intimidate its members, and subvert its independence, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said. It’s just an attempt to clothe those ongoing attacks in fake legitimacy.

Leslie Paulson, the Frankfort man charged with hitting and pinning his ex-wife with a car in December 2019 on Mohawk Valley Community College’s Utica campus, was sentenced to nearly two decades in prison Monday after pleading guilty to attempted second-degree murder, according to court records.
Utica police in 2019 reported Paulson’s ex-wife was walking her dog when he sped toward her, pinning her between her vehicle and his. He began to threaten the woman before leaving, police said. The woman was later treated for her injuries.

Joe Biden has inherited a department plagued by scandal, just as Gerald Ford did in 1974.

President Joe Biden is facing problems Gerald Ford would have appreciated. Like Ford in 1974, Biden has come into office following a president accused of criminality. Both Biden and Ford inherited a Department of Justice plagued by scandal and well-grounded charges of politicization. Both had to choose a nominee for attorney general knowing that recent occupants of that office contributed to partisanship and displayed a lack of integrity. And both took office while questions lingered about recent leadership of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a component of the DOJ.
