Jackson said she was “flattered” that conservative Justice Clarence Thomas, the other Black justice on the court, laid out a detailed disagreement with her dissent in the case. “I think it is a concern for the court as an institution because public confidence is basically all we have,” Jackson said. “I ruled in that case consistent with what I believe the law required,” Jackson told CNN.

WASHINGTON — House Speaker Mike Johnson’s strategy to tie a short-term government funding bill to a Donald Trump-backed proposal to overhaul voting laws was on life support Monday after a band of conservative rebels vowed to vote no on the package. Without a stopgap funding bill, money will run out and the federal government will shut down at the end of the month. Because of the GOP’s razor-thin majority, Johnson, R-La., can afford only four Republican defections if all members vote. Mills slammed Johnson's strategy as a “farce” and said it would do nothing to secure the southern border. Instead, they are pushing for a "clean CR" — short-term funding with nothing attached to it.
