Supreme Court Warily Eyes California Law Involving Abortion and Free Speech
Some justices expressed frustration with the thin court record in the case, which arrived at the Supreme Court at an early stage in the proceedings. That left open the possibility that the justices could return the case to the lower courts for a full trial. In 1992, the Supreme Court upheld a Pennsylvania law that required doctors who performed abortions to provide some kinds of information to their patients. Several members of the court’s liberal wing said that the…
A Republican Appointee to the Senate from Mississippi Has G.O.P. Worried
White House officials urged Mr. Bryant not to rush the appointment, according to Republican officials familiar with the conversations. “This was Gov. Bryant’s choice to make,” said Brad White, Mr. Cochran’s chief of staff and a veteran state operative. “Now it’s up to him to elect her.” Mr. Bryant is said to favor Ms. Hyde-Smith for reasons relating to both politics and personal affinity, viewing her as a rural populist in his own fashion.

There shouldn’t be much doubt that the Democrats are riding a wave heading into November’s midterm elections. That was clear well before Conor Lamb’s apparent victory in Pennsylvania last week. There have been nearly 100 special elections over the last year, and at this point there’s so much evidence of Democratic strength that there’s not much more to glean from each additional result.

Up, Up, Up Goes the Economy. Here’s What Could Knock It Down.
“We’re adding to the structural issues,” said Veronique de Rugy, an economist at the Mercatus Center, a libertarian think tank. “This is the thing that’s the most disconcerting. We’re not just not addressing it, we’re adding to it.” Investors may be starting to worry about whether the recovery could be, if not ending, at least entering a riskier phase. In February, markets tumbled after a report showing unexpectedly strong wage growth revived long-dormant fears of inflation. The markets rebounded…
