Three Trenton Teens Injured, One Seriously, Accident on Route A
A car that flipped through a barbed wire fence left one teenage girl in critical condition while two other teens sustained non-lifethreatening injuries, KCTV5 reported Saturday.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol indicates that around 8:20 p.m. on Saturday, July 13, emergency crews were called to an area of Route A about 6 miles northwest of Trenton, Mo., with reports of a single-vehicle collision.
When first responders arrived, they said they found a 2009 Toyota Matrix driven by a 16-year-old girl with two other passengers, all of whom were from Trenton, Mo., had been headed north on the roadway when the driver failed to negotiate a curve.
Troopers said the car veered off the road to the north and flipped through a barbed wire fence before it landed on its wheels on the north side of the road. A
14-year-old female passenger was thrown through the passenger side window in the process. The driver was the only one of the three teens wearing her seat belt. First responders said the 14-year-old was taken via Life-Flight to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City with serious injuries. Another 15-year-old passenger was taken to Wright Memorial Hospital in Trenton by ambulance. She had serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
Corporal Brian Raney of Missouri Highway Patrol Troop H told the RepublicanTimes Monday that both of the girls hospitalized had been released from the hospital, one two hours after the accident, and the 14-year old lifeflighted to Children’s Mercy was released Sunday.
MSHP also said the driver sustained minor injuries but refused medical treatment at the scene.
Grundy County Republicans Call on State GOP Chair to Resign
By Mark McLaughlin R-T Staff Writer StaffWriter@Republican-Times.com
Nearly 40 Grundy County and surrounding county Republicans met Grundy County Republican Party headquarters Tuesday night, resolving as a group to call for the resignation for Missouri State GOP Chairman Nick Myers for his handling of the controversy-marred Republican State Convention May 4. State Convention delegates from Grundy County were Ben Thomas and County Commissioner candidate Kevin Ireland, and Thomas presented a blow-by-blow explanation of the Conventions twists and turns. 16th District Representative Mazzie Christensen also addressed the group on the Convention in great detail.
County Co-Chair Becky McDonald opened the meeting by recognizing guests from Livingston County, State GOP Chair candidate Jason Sasseman of Kirksville, chair of the Sullivan County Republican Central Committee who also spoke to the group about the controversy. Minutes of the March meeting were approved, bills were presented and approved and a motion to purchase up to 60 large Trump for President signs was approved by the group. Group treasurer Dr. J.A. Kuehn told the group that the committee balance stood at $5,527 currently. McDonald announced that July 18 would be the
ribbon-cutting at the Committee’s offices, located across from Casey’s at 2203 East 9th Street Suite B and that the annual Meet the Candidates Night would be from 6-9 PM at the corner of 9th Street and Rural. Entertainment for the night will be Centerline from Princeton.
Other dates are the pending August 6 Primary Election and an August 20 meeting of the Central Committee, in the third floor courtroom at the Grundy County Courthouse.
Convention delegate Ben Thomas spoke at length on what occurred at the State Convention(see separate story and Chalk Talk column for this week).
Thomas detailed that the reported “credentialing irregularities” cited by the Executive Committee in it’s contest of the delegates and convention to the RNC Credentialing and Contest Committees came down to a total breakdown of Executive Committee record keeping and lists of delegates from Congressional District conventions that forwarded delegates to the state convention.
“We were told to be there at 7 AM, and when we arrived, those handling registration had incorrect lists, did not have correct names, counties, etc. and the process took a really long time.”Thomas said.”Business did not even [See Resign, Page 2]
Amazon Remote Distribution Pod to be Located in Trenton
Amazon has identified Trenton MO as a prime location to improve their delivery system in rural north central Missouri and as a result will be locating a distribution pod in Trenton.
Mayor of Trenton, Jackie Soptic, reports that Amazon representative Jason Vangalis contacted her several months ago interested in sites in Trenton that would be suitable for the company’s Amazon pod distribution model.
In response to the inquiry, the city prepared a list of potential sites per the
companies’ requirements and submitted them to the company for consideration. After completing the due diligence on the submitted sites the company chose to locate on the southeast corner of the Hostettler Discount grocery store parking lot. The project consists of a container being placed on the lot that will have electricity connected to support electronic locking systems and lighting.
Amazon delivery drivers will stock the container with orders during the night and during the day contract
drivers will retrieve the orders and deliver them throughout the Green Hills region. Amazon will utilize their recruiting team who will seek to fill positions for a site manager and daytime contract delivery drivers. It is not clear at this time how many drivers will be needed but when available information will be provided to local media outlets for distribution.
Mayor Soptic said that the unique thing about this project is that Jason Vangalis became aware of Trenton back when ConAgra

TFD Responds to Truck Fire Call
The TFD responded to the call of a truck fire on July 10 at approximately 1:04 PM. Firefighters arrived at the scene, 100-yards from West Crowder Road to find the vehicle totally involved.
Using 200 feet of 1 ¾ inch hose line, firefighters extinguished the fire in just under 38 minutes. Cause of the fire is undetermined and has been referred to the State Fire Marshall. Other departments assisting TFD included Grundy County Rural Fire, Grundy County Sheriff’s Office and Grundy County EMS. Lt. Jeremy Summers provided the after-action report.
The Grundy County Commissioners handled an interesting and wide-ranging array of topics in their regular session July 9, 2024.
In attendance were Presiding Commissioner Phillip Ray and Associate Commissioners Brad Chumbley and Don Sager.
Megan Miller and Matthew Courtney, representing Gilmore & Bell, presented paperwork for Harrison Townships road road bond that was passed in the April 2024 Municipal Election.
A notion was made to accept the resolution of the Grundy County Commission for $131,000 General Obligation Road Bonds of Harrison Township.
Commissioner Chumbley inquired about the AC issues in the ambulance medic units. Wal;ker said the next two we have ordered have a separate unit for the back. Chumbley asked if there was a way to do that in the trucks we are going to keep. Walker repled that he would meet with Pinnacle to see what the cost would be compared to continuing maintenance.

announced their closure of the Trenton plant. Vangalis worked for Janet Addy’s firm at the time and the Addy firm was contracted with to develop an economic recovery plan in response to the closure of the factory. Jason worked in depth with the community and Mayor Soptic who at the time worked in economic development at the Green Hills Regional Planning Commission. During that plan process Jason examined the city of Tren[See Commission, Page 2]

ton’s economic strengths and determined the cities logistical attributes as a major strength of the city’s economy.
Since that time Jason left his post with the Addy firm and began a career with Amazon and when the need was identified to increase efficiencies within Amazons distribution in the Green Hills region Jason reached out to Mayor Soptic with his interests in placing a distribution point in Trenton.
The pod is expected to be placed later this summer and more information will be released as the project evolves. Mayor Soptic expressed that this is a small project with connection to one of the biggest companies in the country and it will be interesting to watch how it improves regional delivery of goods and if the location justifies additional investment from Amazon in the future.

asked Walker to make contact with Elizabteh Gibson to get pamphlets on opioids to keep in the ambulance for when they are needed and out in the community doing outreach.
Walker provided the Commissioners with a spread sheet reflecting budget numbers for the second quarter. His overall budget is currently at 40% spent of what was budgeted.
A motion was made to approve purchase of a 911 recorder unit, including installation and technical services. Chumbley seconded the motion by Commissioner Sager.
The unit, from Nelson Systems came with a price tag of $28,943.75 and Central Square Cost of $7,605.00 and should be
covered under the current grant with no additional cost to the county.
Detention Officer Cody Reeder brought in a letter that he wrote with his issues and thoughts on the Law Enforcement Center.
According to the letter, wages are an issue, but only because Reeder thinks if the starting wage was higher, the County could get better, more quality applicants. Ray explained that two years ago, the Commissioners decided to let elected officials set wages in their offices. Ray said that Sheriff Rodney Herring has the authority to set wages. He can also get grants to supplement their budget and/or wages but that is the responsibility of the Sheriff. Chumbley expressed appreciation to
Reeder coming forward with the request, and Reeder offered a request that when budget talks come around again that the commissioners include the detention administrator/supervisor Gary Reed in the discussions. Reeder stated that starting wage is at $13.50 hourly and also said that his next stop will be a discussion with Sheriff Herring.
Barb Harris, Grundy County Treasurer, came in with paperwork that Mary Waldrep brought in that she filled out to get the surplus amount on two properties that she owned, Parcel 0809-32-01-11-00100 has a surplus of $725.93 and parcel 08-09-32-01-13-00200 has a surplus of $467.63. Harris indicated that she would submit that amount to be paid out to Waldrep.

begin until 2:00 PM in the afternoon over haggling over the Convention chairperson.”
Sophia Shore, campaign manager for Senator Bill Eigel’s campaign for Governor, won the chairmanship of the Convention, assisted by Representative Christensen.
Christensen explained that the May 4 convention represented the first time in history that a “truly grassroots” movement of individual, like-minded voters ever exceeded the more moderate, traditional establishment Republicans led by GOP Chairman Myers and the executive committee.
“This was a first, but our group (Truly Grassroots for Trump) planned this over months, hired a parliamentarian from the RNC and “whipped” our group to be ready for the state convention.”Christensen said.
She added that the “Truly Grassroots” group represented anywhere from 60% to ⅔ of the total number of delegates in attendance.
Thomas , evoking images of a North Missouri Patrick Henry, spoke passionately and in a fiery way, criticizing the tactics of Meyers and the Executive Group, who drug out proceedings into the evening, with many participants becoming discouraged and leaving. After working through, seating delegates and changing some rules(by RNC guidelines) and obtaining passage on 22-amendments to the state party platform, the platform itself was called to a vote,
and an objective from Myers’ group challenged the passage of a platform, citing the lack of a quorum, 50% plus 1 member in attendance.
Unable to proceed further, the Convention adjourned.
Representative Christensen organized the logistics for the 27 delegates and 27 alternates to travel to Milwaukee next week, including plane fares, hotel lodging, and other items to facilitate the delegate trips.
Then, on June 28, the Republican National Committee Credentialing Committee, responding to a protest from Executive Committee members Derek Good and Daniel O’Sullivan, invalidated the results of the State Convention, and received a new slate of delegates from Myers and the GOP Executive Committee.
Of the original “Truly Grassroots for Trump” delegates and alternates, only five people from the elected list were retained.
All five declined to go under those conditions. “Truly Grassroots” member Coby Cullins submitted an official protest to the RNC Committee on Contests calling on the RNC and Myers to reinstate the elected slate, which included governor candidates Bill Eigel and Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft.
As these details were laid out before the Central Committee, a motion came from the floor to direct the writing of a letter to call on Myers to resign as State GOP Chairman and for the entire Executive Commit-
The Trenton Area Convention and Visitors Bureau met for their monthly meeting July 10 at noon.
Present were Rachel Arnold, Jordan Ferguson, Lauren Dannar and City Councilman Marvin Humphreys. Mayor Jackie Soptic and Building Inspector Wes Barone also attended the meeting.
Lacking a quorum, the group shared minutes of the previous meeting June 12.
Board member Jordan Ferguson told the group that CVB currently has a bank balance of $86,866 against a 2024-25 budget of $50,000.
Discussion turned to the CVB web site and it’s promotional capacity, citing that it is currently geared to promote to social media wit5hin a 25-mile range of Trenton, exceeding within the City Limits of Trenton.
Soptic and Dannar said some thought should go to throwing a wider net, promoting tourism opportunities should extend from 125-150 miles front Trenton. Fergu-
tee to resign as well. A second motion went to a letter to State Senator Rusty Black, widely criticized by the group for his silence on the Convention issue.
The letter ultimately selected had been provided by the “Truly Trump” group to County Central Committees meeting around the state to plan their next steps.
Christensen said,”Andrew Breitbart once told us that with acts of war, you present them with war.”Christensen said, revealing that the entire delegate issue, at least in large part, comes down to who the two slates of delegates supported in the Governor’s race in Missouri.
“The Executive Committee group is largely supportive of and behind the candidacy of Mike Kehoe”Christensen said.” He has a lot of money and a lot of special interest money behind him that Jay (Ashcroft) doesn’t have.”
“The delegation that gets to the convention hopes for a sit down with Donald Trump, and for his endorsement,”Christensen said.
The Central Committee meeting adjourned at just after 9:00 PM but the energy in the room didn’t dissipate.
On Friday, July 12, the Credentialing Committee of the Republican National Committee reversed their June 28 decision, reinstating the elected delegate slate of delegates and alternates, and Christensen was named Delegation Chair going into the Republican National Convention which kicked off Monday.
son said he would look into it.
A review of tourism rack cards at Welcome Centers was completed. Discussion centered on the card being too “content heavy” with not enough graphics on it to draw attention. Ferguson said he would work with the card to limit text and add to graphics.
The CVB noted two major music festivals upcoming, including the Mid-America Music Festival
August 1-2 and the Leadership Northwest Missouri Music Festival Labor Day Weekend.
The group further discussed Wayfinding signage and said the final design format was nearing completion. City Administrator Ron Urton had told Mayor Soptic that a wider sign would be needed for the design which would require two poles rather than one, and make placement of the signs a little trickier.
No votes were taken due to a lack of a quorum.

Phyllis Nadine Callahan Robinson
We lost our mother, Phyllis Nadine Callahan Robinson, on June 23,2014. She passed at home in Pineville, Mo. with her family by her side at the age of 89.
She graduated from Humphreys High School and also went to a trade school. She had a diverse life. She milked cows, slopped hogs, raised chickens, and had a huge garden while raising four children. She was a manager at Tiara Inn in Cameron, Mo. She even got her CDL license and drove with her husband coast to coast in a semi. She was a secretary and retired from TRW as an accountant in Rogers, Ar.
Mom was an avid bowler for many years. She bowled in women's leagues as well as couple leagues with Dad. She had many trophies and badges collected over the years, and it always amazed me that she bowled with a 16 pound ball.
Mom loved her family so very much. Family and friends were most important to her.

Barbara Louise Babb of Dallas, Texas peacefully entered God’s heavenly kingdom on June 27, 2024 surrounded by her husband, son, daughter, and her beloved chocolate lab.
Barbara was born on January 8, 1950 in Trenton, Missouri to Doris Vosburg Alexander and Willis Walter Alexander. Following graduation from high school, she pursued her dream of becoming a nurse at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Upon receiving her degree, she began a storied career working in many areas of nursing -- surgery, labor and delivery, cardiac care, and as a night supervisor. Her nursing career culminated in a six-year stint as a critical care helicopter flight nurse. As a flight nurse, she was commonly called to rescue victims of traumatic accidents, many of which involved teenage drunk drivers. These gut-wrenching experiences led Barbara to develop a presentation detailing the horrors of drinking and driving which she took to high school students all over the country for many years. After her retirement, Barbara spent her time volunteering for several noble causes, but none was closer to her heart than her time spent with Alzheimer’s patients at Casa de Vida, an Alzheimer’s respite program.
Barbara held many titles in her life, but she favored one above all else -- to her grandchildren and anyone that came into her life post-grandchildren, her sole moniker was Noni. Nothing brought her more joy than spending time with her beloved grandchildren teaching them about gardening, singing camp songs, playing games, and instilling in them how to spread kindness

and grace in this world. She loved her husband, children, grandchildren, and friends with an incandescent ferocity without caveat or compromise. Her life, at every turn, was defined by her servant’s heart. Helping those around her was the center of all of her undertakings. Where she saw suffering, she tried to heal it; where she saw disaster, she tried to prevent it; and for those afflicted with disease, she sought to soften it.
When it came to her family and those she loved, Noni leapt where angels fear to tread with the protective instinct of a lioness. She was the very personification of selfless love unlike any other. She drew others in with a magnetism as unique as it was sincere. For so many, she was and remains our harbor in the tempest of life, always there with her hand on our backs. While in her presence, we always felt just a little better about ourselves.
Noni’s life could be heralded by a list of accolades all too numerous to list and all of which would make her wince in humble discomfort. She pursued her volunteerism quietly wanting no recognition. She was cherished as a wife, sister, mother, grandmother, friend, and mentor. She was, by any measure, a hero. Fittingly, she has now been escorted by an honor guard of angels to her heavenly father.
She is survived by her loving husband of 54 years, Ralph W. Babb, Jr., her daughter, Dana Babb McGowan and husband, Greg, and her son, Derek Ralph Babb and wife, Jessica, and her seven treasured grandchildren, Evan Gregory Babb McGowan, Abigail Al-
exander Grace McGowan, Avery Barbara McGowan, Ian Derek McGowan, Isabella Marie Babb, Ava Louise Babb, and Lola Maxine Babb. She is also survived by her sister, Patricia Elliot and her husband, Jay, and her brother, Eric Alexander and his wife, Marlene and her nieces, Jessica Elliot Bowman and Erica Alexander Wescott, and nephews Josh Elliot and David Alexander. A memorial service celebrating Barbara’s beautiful and well-lived life will be held on Thursday, July 25 at 10 a.m. at Highland Park United Methodist Church with a reception to follow at the church. Barbara’s family encourages guests to wear bright colors in tribute to her vibrant life. The service will also be live streamed at hpumc.org where a link will appear at the top of the homepage five minutes before the service begins. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Casa de Vida in memory of Barbara Babb at P.O. Box 515454, Dallas, TX 75251-5454.

COMMUNITY
Grundy County Republican Central Committee
Grundy County Republican Central Committee and interested guests met July 9 at GOP Headquarters in Trenton and made a motion to send a letter asking for the resignation of State GOP Chair Nick Meyers, and ViceChair David Meservey calling Senator Rusty Black to make a statement or be censured, and to accept all decisions including the party platform and amendments that were made at the State Convention with 850 present. This letter and call is in response to the Missouri State GOP Convention where the convention
was not called into session for 5 hours due to credentialing problems. Sophie Shore, Bill Eigel's campaign manager was elected chair for the day and True Trump slate of delegates was elected as well as new National Committee Women and Man. The True Trump slate included Rep. Mazzie Christensen, Bill Eigel and Jay Ashcroft. 2 attorney's from Missouri challenged the election to the National RNC who then rejected True Trump delegation and sent it back to the Executive committee of the MO GOP. July 3 the Executive committee voted
to send another slate of delegates that Chairman Meyers had chosen. The True Trump delegates have challenged the slate. Speaking Tuesday night in Trenton were Rep. Mazzie Christensen, Jason Soseman chair of Adair County GOP and a national delegate chosen at the 6th Congressional meeting and Ben Thomas who were all delegates to the Missouri State Convention. Grundy County GOP voted to send a letter of resignation to State Chair Nick Meyers for going against the wishes of the grassroots patriots.
Republican National Committee Restores Grassroots Slate to Convention
The Republican National Committee Contest Committee, made up of delegates from all 50-states, announced Friday at noon that the “Truly Grassroots for Trump” slate of Missouri State GOP delegates had been restored, following a June 28 action that declared action of the Convention May 4 to be null and void. While details are currently slim, what
the action means is that the “grass roots” group, representative of North Missouri citizens in the 6th Congressional District, has had their voice restored at the Convention July 15-18 in Milwaukee. Details on what occurred in Springfield May 4 are found in another story elsewhere in the Republican-Times on this issue.
Dan and Carol Wilford ate spaghetti and chicken Alfredo at the Galt Firehouse on Thursday, July 11. The fundraiser meal was provided by the Galt Fire Protection District Ladies Auxiliary. They sat by Dan’s second cousin, Rhonda Johnson and her husband, Dale; Dennis and Becky McDonald; and near Randy and Janie Bland. They saw many others they hadn’t seen for several years.
On Saturday afternoon, June 29, Bill and Kathy
Waits went to Shelburne Baptist Church to attend a baby shower for Crystal Hamilton. Other family members were there too.
In the evening, Bill and Kathy went to Junior and Denise Hamilton’s in Tindall and enjoyed supper and peach cobbler to celebrate Junior’s birthday. They also swam in their pool. The Waits enjoyed staying home all day on the 4th of July.
Isaac and Cassidy Russell hosted their 13th annual July get-together at
their home on Saturday, July 13. They enjoyed a BBQ and had a fireworks show at dark.
Denise and Junior Hamilton came to Bill and Kathy Waits on Sunday afternoon, July 14 and visited a while. Kathy and her grandson, Cruz, have been out scouting for blackberries along the side roads, but so far no luck with that. He thinks he knows where they are, but when we get there, there are no berries.
THE AMERICAN EXPERIMENT
The Federal Judiciary —How the Courts Protect the Constitution
By Mark McLaughlin StaffWriter@Republican-Times.com
(Part eight of an eight part series)
Notice the same change of this history series. It’s interesting to note that the “threads” of history which carry us in our private lives and are the stuff of public life all come back to this.
How is what we do as Americans tied back to what we believe, how we articulated that at the beginning, how we put it into practice and, moving forward, how our government continues to serve us in the context of “how does this action of government upon our lives jive with our Constitution, or, why does it not?”
I believe that Article I of the Constitution deals with “problem - solving” ...Identify a problem, craft legislation and laws to address that problem, and try to make it better. Article II of the Constitution deals with “execution” of the laws, and involves the people, beginning with the President who in his /her daily work may wear up to twelve different hats from Head of State, to Chief Executive, to Commanderin-Chief, sometimes simultaneously, sometimes individually.
As we can see by what’s going on in our politics currently, no elected position in the world endures more scrutiny, or wields more power than the President of the United States.
The third branch of the government, the Judiciary involves district court judges, appointed by the President, appeals court judges, ditto and Supreme Court Justices whose role is to take individual cases, actions, grievances of those outside government, or even the states in conflict with other states, and solve conflicts according to what they believe the Constitution says.
Article III set up the federal courts, the administrative justice system, and a series of lesser, issue-specific courts, to be an “independent judiciary”, appointed for life, and tasked to remain above politics and to remain objective.
Most Supreme Court Justices, and judges generally, can be said to be “spotlight averse”, not wanting to be at the center of controversies, but to provide the last word.
The Framers did not envision the Judiciary to have the importance that it has come to serve today, but the Court, under the initial leadership of Chief Justice John Jay, and the towering court led by Chief Justice John Marshall took its time in carving out its role, and its series of powers over it’s first few years of existence, building into a truly “co-equal” branch of government.
The best-known power of the Supreme Court is judicial review, or the ability of the Court to declare a Legislative or Executive act in violation of the Constitution, is not found within the text of the Constitution itself. The Court established this doctrine in the case of Marbury v. Madison (1803).
In Marbury vs. Madison, a federal appointee to a postmaster position in one of the states had received the appointment as the previous President left office. President James Madison refused to accept the appointment and withdrew it.
Marbury took the action to court, suing for it to be honored. The case made its way to the Supreme Court, which ruled that the commission needed to be honored, and that Madison could not withhold it for political reasons.
The importance of the action was not that Marbury received the commission, but that the Court established the power to review the acts of the legislative or executive branches and to determine whether they adhered to the Constitution or not. If they did, the court affirmed their action. If they did not, the court struck down the action. It officially made the Supreme Court the “last word” on all these issues.
Many early actions of the Supreme Court dealt with overreach by one branch of the government or the other, and referred back to the Articles of the Constitution. The Justices began with an “originalist” point of view, believing the Constitution to be a sacred document, and anything they considered did so in the context of what the Framers believed and intended.
Not surprisingly, the generations which added themselves one after the other widened the gap between the Court and first-hand knowledge of the Framers intent. Later actions of the Supreme Court dealt with violations of the Bill of Rights, and set “boundaries” for where a right began and where it ended, and where an individual’s rights began, and where
they ended. The further away the Court got from our beginnings, the more complicated its decision-making became.
The Dred Scott Decision in 1857, which essentially declared that no limits could be put on slavery cast the die for the Civil War. The South saw the Dred Scott decision as their “ticket” to extend the “peculiar institution” of slavery beyond the bounds of the Missouri Compromise and into the newly forming states on the frontier. Popular Sovereignty, or the idea that residents of any new state would decide whether they were a “free” or “slave” state was affirmed by the Court, but then cast into confusion with Dred Scott.
The Civil War settled the issue of slavery with the conclusion of hostilities when Robert E. Lee offered his surrender to Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Courthouse. But it didn’t settle the issue of black equality, citizenship or voting rights.
As a result of Lincoln’s assassination in 1865, a movement to enshrine African Americans as free men, to make them citizens and ensure them the vote were the result of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution.
The overwhelming impact of these three Amendments was to add an important principle to the American lexicon, the idea of “equal justice under the law”, the most epochal of the three Amendments being the 14th Amendment, used to enshrine the ideas of birthright citizenship, and argued initially in Roe vs. Wade to provide women with the right to an abortion in 1973.
The Court has been an important “referee” to American life almost from the very beginning. In our incredibly “hotly charged” political environment today, the Court is under attack from the Legislative and the Executive branch who seek to pack the Court and to bend the current 6-3 Conservative majority to a more left-leaning, more progressive mindset more conducive to the actions of the current ruling party.
Despite this environment, the Court has remained true to its mission and kept the actions of the government in check, probably better than the other two branches of government. Next week, the indomitable Abraham Lincoln is studied, and how he restored the Union against all odds.

Delayed gratification
The first two Alzheimer’s treatments shown to slightly slow disease progression are now on the market, but the payoff for shareholders — if any — may still be a few years away.
U.S. regulators approved Eli Lilly’s Kisunla earlier this month, more than a year after the debut of Leqembi from Biogen and Japanese drugmaker Eisai.
Morningstar analyst Damien Conover says there will be demand for both drugs since there are no other options for patients. But several things must happen before that translates into blockbuster sales.
Wait for it: It may take a few years for the new Alzheimer’s drugs to approach peak sales.
Insurance coverage, which was limited when Leqembi arrived, must expand. The health care system will have to get better at diagnosing patients in early stages of the disease when they still can be treated with the drugs. And hospitals will have to streamline procedures to infuse the drugs and then monitor for side effects like brain bleeds.
Conover said peak annual sales for each drug may top the $5.5 billion that Morningstar predicts they will reach by the end of the decade. But the analyst acknowledges that “the journey to get there is a little bit tricky.”
