Russell Riley, a presidential historian at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center, agreed that the debate’s significance will fade in weeks to come, saying, “A combination of time and the electorate’s short attention span mitigates damn near anything in presidential electoral politics.”

The Supreme Court has overruled Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, finally interring a doctrine of statutory interpretation that it had narrowed and largely abandoned in recent years

Barbara Perry, director of presidential studies at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center, told USA TODAY in January that West could appeal to younger voters and people dissatisfied with Biden's handling of the conflict. However, West also has a tough road to get onto state ballots.

Barbara A. Perry, who teaches the American presidency at the University of Virginia, evoked the nasty inability to look away from a car crash. She also noted that a sizable number of Americans are “double haters,” lamenting the choice between an uninspiring 81-year-old and a criminal 78-year-old.

There was drama at the Supreme Court, where it appears the justices were poised to allow emergency abortions in Idaho when a pregnant woman's health is at risk. According to Bloomberg News, a copy of the opinion was briefly posted on the Supreme Court's website. A spokeswoman said in part "The court's publications unit inadvertently and briefly uploaded a document to the court's website. The court's opinion in Moyle v. United States and Idaho v. United States will be issued in due course." The leak appears to show that justices are set to reinstate a lower court order that allowed Idaho hospitals to perform emergency abortions. Idaho is one of 14 states that outlawed abortion at all stages with very few limitations. The Biden Administration filed a lawsuit saying hospitals should be allowed to offer emergency abortions. Dr. Barbara Perry takes us inside the courtroom, shares how these Supreme Court case opinions are handled and who is part of the process. She explains how something like this could happen and what type of impact she thinks it will have on the judicial process and the integrity of the nation's highest court.
