ruled that the state had weakened the power of Black voters with a new drawing of a congressional voting map, and thus rejected it. The decision shocked many experts, considering conservative justice Brett Kavanaugh and Chief Justice John G.
Roberts Jr. were among the majority who voted against it.For host Sunny Hostin, the fact that Roberts wrote the majority opinion was a huge factor, considering the fact that he has often argued that race should not be considered in cases like this.“I was so encouraged, especially around this time of Juneteenth, where we’re still constantly seeing the denial of systemic racism, we’re constantly seeing, I call it paper genocide, where they’re taking away African American history books out of the library,” Hostin said.

LGBTQ advocates and allies are lamenting the Supreme Court’s recent decision in favor of a website designer who sought an exemption from her state’s nondiscrimination law to allow her to refuse to create wedding websites for same-sex couples.Despite one of the alleged requests for service from a gay couple allegedly being fabricated or submitted under false pretenses, as reported by The New Republic, the high court ultimately decided in favor of Lorie Smith, the owner of 303 Creative, LLC, finding that Colorado’s law infringes on her free speech rights.The court further found that, because Smith creates “custom” websites that contain “expressive content,” she should have been granted a “free speech” exemption to the Coloraod Anti-Discrimination Act allowing her to not only refuse service to same-sex couples, but to post a notice that she will refuse to create websites celebrating same-sex marriages.Many allies of the LGBTQ community noted that while the decision is not as broad as to overturn nullify laws prohibiting LGBTQ discrimination, it does create a massive carve-out for businesses providing “custom-made” goods or services, allowing them to discriminate against prospective customers — in this particular case, LGBTQ individuals, but potentially members of other groups in the future — on free speech grounds. “The Supreme Court just gave businesses a license to discriminate,” Ben Olinsky, the senior vice president of Structural Reform and Governance at the left-leaning Center for American Progress, said in a statement.
landed serious blows to the American education system this week.First, on June 29, the Court struck down at the University of North Carolina and Harvard before President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness program, which offered up to $20,000 of debt relief to millions of Americans, just a day later.

Ethan Shanfeld In a critical ruling, the Supreme Court struck down affirmative action programs at Harvard and the University of North Carolina on Thursday, upsetting a 45-year precedent and putting an end to the systematic consideration of race in college admissions. Ruling that the programs at both schools violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution, the court voted 6-3 in the UNC case and 6-2 in the Harvard case, in which Justice Ketanji Brown was recused. The decision could have serious implications on the college admissions process, with the NAACP calling it a “willful ignorance of our reality.” The effects of the ruling could stretch as far as race-conscious workplace programs.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that state courts had oversight over a legislature’s election laws, rejecting a controversial theory that state lawmakers had nearly unchecked authority over the rules for congressional and presidential races.
On-air mistakes make for funny TV moments — and Whoopi Goldberg had her latest blunder on the Monday, June 26, episode of The View.
Republican presidential hopeful Francis Suarez stopped by “The View” on Friday, and the hosts wasted no time in grilling him about his promised support of Donald Trump, should the twice-indicted former president get the GOP nomination.To start the interview, the women largely questioned Suarez on his platform, and how he plans to win against Trump and Ron DeSantis, who are both polling far ahead of most of the Republican pool of candidates at the moment. As he answered their questions, Hostin praised Suarez, saying “you sound so reasonable.” But, Hostin then called out the fact that Suarez has said that he will support and vote for Trump, should he become the nominee in 2024.
“The View” has had plenty of chaos break out on the show over the years, but we don’t think it’s ever had a surprise water balloon attack happen on air — at least, not until Thursday’s episode. The victim? Executive producer Brian Teta.The moment came at the end of the show, as the hosts of the ABC talk show were doing their “Favorite Things Under $50” segment.
pointed out both the “irony” and “hubris” of the missing submersible that disappeared en route to exploring the ruins of the once-mighty Titanic. “They say that the … submersible has been certified to withstand the pressure of 4,265 feet of depth, but the Titanic wreck wreckage is 12,500 feet of depth,” Behar, 80, said in Wednesday’s episode. “So that’s a tip-off right there.“It’s interesting because the Titanic itself went down because of human incompetence and stupidity on the part of — according to the movies — hubris,” continued the host.
Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts called the current Supreme Court a “clear and present danger” and suggested the only way to right it would for Congress to add four justices – to make up for Republicans’ “stolen” appointments.Markey is one of seven congressional co-sponsors of the Judiciary Act of 2023, which was introduced in May and seeks to bring the total number of justices to 13. Appearing Tuesday night on “The Last Word” with Lawrence O’Donnell, Markey was asked to lay out his case for packing the court.“It’s a pretty clear case,” he said.

If someone asked you to name a child actor that’s still working today, odds are, you can name quite a few. But can you name the most successful of all time?
Jessica Kiang It is a paradox worthy of Zeno himself that significant dumbing-down is necessary in order to make tales of extraordinary genius comprehensible to us lay audiences. But in her own attempt at grandly unifying these opposing poles, French director Anna Novion (“Grown Ups,” “Rendezvous in Kiruna”) splits the difference so often she delivers in “Marguerite’s Theorem,” a movie riddled with cliché that plunges right past comprehensible into painfully, pedantically predictable — even to those of us who stumble when subtracting one two-digit number from another. Its heroine loves math because through it she can “put order on infinity,” but “Marguerite’s Theorem” is proof as incontrovertible as Andrew Wiles’ 1994 Fermat solution, that one can have too much order.
Mary Louise Parker and Billy Crudup’s tumultuous split made headlines when the Almost Famous actor left the Weeds alum for Claire Danes.
all 49 pages of that indictment over the weekend.Naturally, the second indictment led the Hot Topics discussion of the day, with the women all marveling at how “rock solid” the case appears to be. Ana Navarro admitted she was “amazed and surprised by the amount of receipts” the Department of Justice has, while Sunny Hostin was awed by where much of the evidence is coming from.“What I found most interesting about it is the most significant evidence in the indictment — because of course, I read it gleefully,” Hostin said.
