LOADING ERROR LOADINGWASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Monday rejected a call to overturn its landmark decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Her lawyers repeatedly invoked the words of Justice Clarence Thomas, who alone among the nine justices has called for erasing the same-sex marriage ruling. But Barrett has suggested recently that same-sex marriage might be in a different category than abortion because people have relied on the decision when they married and had children. Today marks the 8th anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling in the Obergefell v. Hodges case that guaranteed the right to marriage for same-sex couples. The Kentucky legislature later enacted a law removing the names of all county clerks from state marriage licenses.

In her interview with Blanche, Maxwell said she never witnessed bad behavior by Trump during the years he and Epstein were friends. In his letter, Raskin said Democrats had learned Maxwell was working on a “commutation application” with help from prison officials. It’s clear Trump may be favorably disposed to pardoning Maxwell, especially if she can help him distance himself from Epstein. “What information is Ms. Maxwell agreeing to suppress to receive such outlandishly favorable treatment as a federal prisoner and convicted sex offender?” Raskin asks.
