🇵🇱🗳️With blue skies not being yet strongly polonised there's not much on the Polish elections here, and electoral silence keeps us muzzled, but it seems like there will be a record high turnout, beating the partially free vote of 1989 (62%). Some voting stations report over 80% voters already.

Back in August, my #SCOTUS newsletter focused on Nixon v. Fitzgerald, and why the Court's 1982 decision *doesn't* support a President's absolute immunity from criminal prosecution—especially if the prosecution happens after the President leaves office:

39. Nixon v. Fitzgerald and the President's "Absolute Immunity"
Former President Trump's supporters argue that a 1982 Supreme Court ruling says that he can't be prosecuted for acts taken while in office. Here's why they're wrong.

“While announcing that he will move Republicans toward a formal impeachment probe, McCarthy also signaled that he’ll sidestep the biggest challenge he had faced — locking down a majority of Republican votes for one. “

But it turns out election officials have been discussing how to handle it for months.”

In this week’s “One First,” I wrote about #SCOTUS’s FY2024 appropriations request, and the (hitherto neglected) separation-of-powers implications of the fact that the Court relies upon the goodwill of the political branches for 95–98% of its annual funding:

A three-judge panel just struck down Alabama’s congressional map after GOP state lawmakers refused a court mandate to draw a second majority-Black district.

The federal judges wrote that they were “deeply troubled” that the state legislature declined to draw two majority Black districts.
