The scrutiny faced by Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito following a ProPublica report revealing an undisclosed luxury fishing trip he took with conservative donor Paul Singer over a decade ago.
The trip, which was paid for by Robin Arkley II, the then-owner of the lodge, included Alito flying on Singer's private jet. Singer had connections with corporate entities that later had cases before the Supreme Court and won with Alito's support. The report adds to ongoing discussions about gift disclosures and ethics reform within the Supreme Court. Alito responded with a defensive op-ed in The Wall Street Journal denying any wrongdoing. Republicans have come to Alito's defense, accusing ProPublica of targeting him for political reasons. Democrats, however, criticized Alito's behavior and raised concerns about ethics violations.

Supreme Court Ruling: Accepting a Pardon is an "Admission of Guilt!"
A Presidential Pardon does not take effect unless the suspect accepts it. That according to a little known, 1915 ruling from the Supreme Court, once accepted, the pardon serves as an “imputation of guilt,” or what’s more commonly known as an admission. Because accepting the pardon is “essential to it’s validity,” I am demanding the Biden family, Dr. Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, the members of the J6 Committee and everyone else Biden unsurprisingly pardoned declare their acceptance of the pardon publicly. Because, according to the Supreme Court, it would also serve as a declaration of guilt.

California Fire Chief Saves Two Homes Using Milk and Beer After Finding No Water in Hose
NY Post - January 17, 2025
In an extraordinary act of resourcefulness, a California fire chief saved two houses from destruction during the fierce Eaton Fire by using milk and beer as firefighting agents, after discovering the local water supply was unavailable.
Brian Fennessy, 65, and the Orange County Fire Authority Chief, found himself in Altadena, where his childhood memories coexist with the current devastation. With no water pressure in the fire hoses, he resorted to unconventional methods. “I thought I’ll check the refrigerator and all that was in there was some milk and a couple beers,” Fennessy recounted.
