Quote:In a post on X on Thursday morning, the right-wing group Heritage Action said, “President Trump has made it clear to Indiana leaders: if the Indiana Senate fails to pass the map, all federal funding will be stripped from the state.”
“Roads will not be paved. Guard bases will close. Major projects will stop,” the group said in the tweet. “These are the stakes and every NO vote will be to blame.”
The Indiana Senate voted 19-31 against a bill to redraw the state’s congressional districts to favor Republicans.

Yeah, that'll excite the base.

That's a puzzlement.

It surely is, her being convicted in state court and not federal court and all.

Apparently, some dispute that by "United States" in the clause about pardons, the term refers to the federal government, suggesting that by "United States" they meant the states collectively, extending his pardon power to any state acts of any of the collected "United States." It's a theory, I guess. There is no precedent on the matter, so it could, potentially, be up for resolution by the Supreme Court.

^I don’t think that theory holds water. When the Constitution refers to the federal government, the term ‘United States’ is used. When referring to the individual states, the phrase becomes ‘the several States’.
But it’ll be interesting to see what the current SCOTUS thinks about it.

I wish our President and his staff understood our Constitution as clearly as you do.
