Justice Amy Coney Barrett has voted with the liberals two days in a row—-on the losing side of the EPA water pollution case (she wrote the dissent) and the winning side of today’s USAID case. She’ll be interesting to watch. Another court maverick?

Jimmy Carter’s funeral service is inspired. Gorgeous rendition of Amazing Grace. What a contrast he was to what’s coming in.
