9 JAN 2024 - SCOTUS Takes up Colorado Trump Ballot Ban, Postmodernism Exposed as Fraud, Mike Johnson Budget Deal, Pennsylvania Keeps the Statue of William Penn

By now we have all said good by to 2023, and we are looking forward to 2024. Of course, this is a presidential election year. Our first story is that the Supreme Court will be taking up the Colorado Trump Ballot Ban case – along with the State of Maine, which also wants to block Trump from the ballot. Second, we take a look at an important Opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal which points out the absurdity of postmodernism and the academic creep of this cancerous ideology, in higher education. Finally, we focus on the US Congress and Speaker Mike Johnson’s back room dealings with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.
