Canada's Safe Voluntary Isolation Sites Program
Lost in the news coverage of the Canadian election and the plethora of promises by the ruling Liberal Party is an interesting development which may portend a new technique for handling COVID-19 positive Canadians. Here is the announcement from the Government of Canada: *Notice that the Trudeau government keeps reassuring Canadians that use of these isolation sites by Canadians is "voluntary" and is being done to ensure that people living in crowded conditions have the ability to "self-isolate".* The government also provided some interesting quotes with this news release... read more

Poland Tried to ‘Merge’ Russian and NATO Tanks*Charlie Gao* *Tanks, Europe* Does the plan make sense? *Here's What You Need to Know*: Poland is deciding what to do with its Cold War-era tanks. When the Cold War ended, the Polish Army inherited a massive fleet of T-72s. Most of these tanks were T-72Ms and T-72M1s, which were built in Poland beginning in the 1980s. In the 1990s, these tanks served as a valuable resource for Poland as modernization of the tank into the PT-91 “Twardy.” They also gave the Polish “Bumar” tank plant valuable experience in building their own T-72 upgrade, complete with domestic ERAWA ERA, passive ... read more

The Problem with the Shadow DocketMy view is that the main problem with the "shadow docket" is that the Supreme Court is deciding consequential matters without full briefing and argument.

In the *Steel Seizure Cases*, President Truman issued his executive order in April 1952. A month later, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in the case. In the *Pentagon Papers *case, the Nixon Administration sought a prior restraint against publication in June 1971. Two weeks later, the Suprem... read more

The state of Texas has passed a blatantly unconstitutional law on abortion. And the Supreme Court has refused to do anything about it. The *New York Times* editorializes: The Texas law, known as SB 8, is the most brazenly anti-abortion law in the country. It bans abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, before many women even know they are pregnant. By itself, this violates a woman’s constitutional right to get an abortion, which the court has protected at least until the fetus is viable outside the womb, at around 22 to 24 weeks of pregnancy.
