The National Basketball Association infamously has aligned itself as a "woke" organization, meaning they are alert and outspoken against "injustice" in all it's politically correct forms. At least that's been their reputation with those who populate social media. But as The Guardian pointed out this week, "the league is only woke when it doesn't cost money."

Mississippi's 15-week abortion ban was back in court Monday, as a panel of three judges at the Fifth Circuit heard oral arguments regarding the new pro-life law. After Mississippi's Governor, Phil Bryant, signed the law in 2018, it was immediately challenged by Jackson Women's Health Organization. U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves blocked the law from taking effect, claiming that it violated a woman's right to an abortion prior to fetal viability. Mississippi appealed the decision.

I'm from Louisiana, so I know a thing or two about swamps. For one, they can be difficult places to navigate. When I came to Washington, D.C. 16 years ago, I also knew that this "Swamp" would be a tough place for someone wanting to make an impact with conservative principles. I knew that if I didn't follow in the footsteps of the right people, I'd get stuck quickly in the mire of D.C. So, I made a list of people to meet with whom I knew could impart such wisdom. Attorney General Ed Meese was at the top of that short list.
