[Supreme Court justices in 2022][U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. (Image by Mark Thomas from Pixabay)]U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. When the American Civil Liberties Union agrees with pro-life, gun rights, and business groups in the Supreme Court, there must be a pretty clear and important principle at stake. The case is First Choice Women's Resource Centers v. Platkin, and the Court heard arguments on Dec. 2. The important principle is whether the First Amendment allows a state to pry into private organizations' internal communications and uncover donor lists, supposedly in the name of the "public interest," even when those organizations have not been accused of violating any law.

1+ day, 1+ hour ago (500+ words) The Supreme Court is taking up the fight in Michigan over a house that a county essentially stole. Officials in Isabella County actually took control of a 3,000-square-foot home originally purchased by Scott Pung and evicted his descendants. All for a tax bill for which Pung had obtained an ongoing exemption. So the bill never should have existed. It is the Pacific Legal Foundation that explained when Pung first bought the house, he "secured a tax exemption for a supplemental property tax." It was an ongoing exemption, and when Scott died in 2004 and his wife in 2008, his son, Marc, took control of the house. "Under Michigan law, the tax exemption continued automatically as long as family members lived in the home. Marc lived there with his wife and young child. No additional paperwork was required," the legal team explained. That…...
