I write southern historical fiction, local history, and I've written a devotional book. The two novels I'm writing are set in Virginia and the Carolinas in the 1760s. My weekly blog started out to follow my journey as a writer and a reader, but in 2025 it has been greatly expanded to include current events and politics in the United States as I see our democracy under attack from within. The political science major in me cannot sit idly by and remain silent.
I have lost all confidence in the U.S. Supreme Court. Too many of them were nominated by Trump, plus the others who were put on the court by Republican Presidents seem to have more allegiance to political party than to the rule of law. For the first time in my life, I don’t expect the U.S. Supreme Court to do the right thing. There are only three justices on the Court now that I can count on to follow the Constitution.
I am sick to my stomach. And I was horrified but not surprised to hear two Trump supporters on CNN last night defend this as strictly a business decision by ABC. Can they possibly be that blind? Soon, we will only be left with the Second Amendment.
Would the Supreme Court let them do it?

Bottom line? It’s their bottom link. Money talks.
