We & the media are NOT talking enough about how a Florida grand jury found that $10 million was funneled from a settlement intended to benefit Florida taxpayers to Ron DeSantis’s wife’s illegitimate “charity” (that never registered with the IRS), where it was laundered before it got to the FLA GOP.

Native American Tribes Came Together to Secure Their Rights to Colorado River Water. Four States Are Stalling the Deal.
Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming are resisting the deal because it would allow the Navajo and Hopi to lease water to cities downstream, likely the growing towns around Phoenix.

Alito's argument – that counting ballots after Election Day means "the electorate’s choice does not occur on election day, and the federal election-day statutes are violated" – is some of the dumbest reasoning I have ever seen. The "choice" doesn't occur at the time of counting!
"If ballots received after election day are added to the set of ballots that dictate the election’s outcome, the electorate’s choice does not occur on
election day, and the federal election-day statutes are violated."
