Tuesday is the deadline for Special Counsel Jack Smith to file his response to the Trump team’s application to the Supreme Court to stay the D.C. Circuit Court’s decision denying Trump’s claim of absolute immunity in the election interference case.
It’s also the day lawyers for Julian Assange are set to argue against his extradition to the U.S. before the High Court in London.
And the Supreme Court will be hearing oral argument in two cases: Corner Post, Inc. v. Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (regarding whether a claim under the Administrative Procedures Act accrues when the rule is issued or when it first causes Plaintiff a legal wrong or adverse effect) and Bissonnette v. LePage Bakeries Park St. (regarding whether Wonder Bread truck drivers are exempt from mandatory arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act) — you know, sexy stuff.
MORNING MUSING
Sixty-two years ago today, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth while aboard the Friendship 7.
I actually met Glenn once. Had to have been the early-to-mid 90s, while he was still serving in the Senate. He spoke at a private gathering at a friend’s aunt’s house. Knowing me as the political junkie I was, my friend invited me to attend with her. I don’t remember much about the event other than he seemed pleasant and engaging. I was an independent then, so largely disagreed with his politics. Obviously, that might be the case today as well — still, I expect, in some ways, we’d find more common ground than he and some of the present-day fringe of his party.
