Some ethics experts have argued that the justices as a group should sometimes decide whether one of them has a conflict of interest that would call for stepping aside in a particular case. For example, the court last year was called upon to decide whether the White House could be forced to turn over emails and other documents to the National Archives and the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Thomas’s wife, Ginni, is a conservative activist and had sent emails to Trump’s chief of staff urging him to keep fighting Biden’s election victory. It appeared more of her emails could be revealed if the disclosures were not blocked by the court. But Thomas did not step aside from ruling on the case. He dissented alone when the appeal was turned down. See Rules on 6
LANSING, Mich. — President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump and their challengers from both sides of the aisle are slated to make Michigan’s Feb. 27 primary ballot under candidate lists unveiled Monday by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s office. Under state law, Benson, a Democrat, had until 4 p.m. to release initial lists of candidates for president recognized by the national media to appear on the ballot for the primary. Benson included Trump, the front runner for the Republican nomination, amid ongoing lawsuits over his eligibility. In a statement, Benson said she was following the requirements of Michigan law. “Barring a court order, these candidates will be included on Michigan’s presidential primary ballot in 2024 unless they withdraw their names from consideration,” the secretary of state said. Benson’s list of Democratic candidates featured Biden, the incumbent who’s seeking a second term in the White House; U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota, and author Marianne Williamson, a former Metro Detroit resident who also ran for president in 2020. On the GOP side, Benson’s list had seven candidates: Trump, who lost to Biden in 2020; former New Jersey Gov.
Chris Christie; Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis; former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley; former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson; North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum; and Ohio businessman Vivek Ramaswamy. The standard to make the secretary of state’s lists for the presidential primary ballot is simple. State law says she must include individuals “generally advocated by the national news media to be potential presidential candidates.” The chairs of the Michigan Democratic Party and the Republican Party have the chance to add additional candidates by submitting their own lists by 4 p.m. Tuesday. Candidates can withdraw from the primary ballot until Dec. 8, and anyone else who hopes to make the primary ballot, such as someone who joins the race later, must file about 14,000 petition signatures by Dec. 8. There are three ongoing legal battles in Michigan over whether Trump’s name should appear on the state’s ballot. The cases are pending before Judge James Robert Redford in the state Court of Claims. Opponents of the former president have argued he should be disqualified under the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Cowboys slip up in textbook trap game, now there is no room for error Braden Bush Sports Editor
Mike Gundy predicted the parity in the Big 12. The OSU coach has often said results can vary from week to week. He probably wasn’t expecting it quite at the level of his team’s 45-3 loss at UCF on Saturday afternoon, but he knows outcomes like that are possible. It happened last year when the Cowboys were drubbed 48-0 by Kansas State after a big win against Texas. And it happens all around the Big 12. TCU beat BYU by 33 points in Week 7, then turned around and got thumped by Kansas State by 38 the following week. Kansas beat Oklahoma and Iowa State, each sitting in at least second place in the Big 12 standings at the time, in back-to-back weeks, rising to No. 16, only to fall to 4-5 Texas Tech at home Saturday. That’s why Gundy wanted to move past Bedlam minutes after it ended. UCF entered Saturday as one of the top rushing teams in the country, and with quarterback John Rhys Plumlee back, the Knights are no slouches. Gundy wanted to get his players refocused after a big win, and he warned them, because there was no time to dwell on success. “We’re a good football team, we’re not a great football team,” Gundy said after Bedlam. “But we’re a good football team. We can’t waste a day.” The Cowboys didn’t show signs of heeding their coach’s warning. Gundy said the typical: UCF outcoached them at times, the players responded well on the sidelines, it was a perfect storm, etc. All may be true. But Gundy warned the team to stay focused, and it didn’t show on Saturday. Now, the Cowboys’ clear path to the conference title game has some obstacles, and their response is even more important and defining this time around. “And so now they’ve been challenged and faced with adversity that they haven’t had in two months,” Gundy said on Saturday. “And so that just kind of just is gonna define who we are.” Last season, the Cowboys wilted after a similarly lopsided Kansas State loss, going 1-5 down the stretch. This season’s team already overcame a bad start and big losses to put itself Ethan Scott in a position for a run at the Mike Gundy tried to move on from Bedlam last week, saying UCF couldn’t be overlooked.

Trojan Horse UCF talks beatdown of OSU Savannah Chenoweth Staff Reporter Oklahoma State fell to UCF on Saturday, 45-3. The Cowboys are now 5-2 in conference and 7-3 overall. Here’s what UCF coach Gus Malzahn and the Knights had to say after the game. Malzahn’s overall thoughts on the game: “First of all, I’m real proud of our team. That was the No. 15 team in the country that came in here, probably the hottest team in all the country. They had a huge win last week and they had the leading rusher I believe in the country. Our defense played our best game. I think they had minus-six yards at halftime. We held (Ollie) Gordon to 26 yards, I guess, or 25 yards on 12 carries. That’s really probably the story of the game. We played one of our better games, if not our best offensive game today.” Malzahn on the defensive performance: “Our defensive line dominated. We didn’t have Ricky Barber, I mean that tells you some of the young guys, John Walker and Matthew really played well. Lee Hunter was a force in the middle, and I think our edge guys did a good job. Jason Johnson, he’s got to be one of the better linebackers in our league, too, he showed that UCF coach Gus Malzahn said the Knights’ ability to shut down OSU running back Ollie Gordon was the story of the game. tonight, but I mean they held that group to three points.

Bog is made with rice, chicken “When it comes to cold weather and sausage, along with a few seasonfoods I enjoy anything that is hot,” ings. The trick is to cook your rice in

Gigi Vandelune, a junior, enjoys eating bog when she visits her friend’s house for the holidays. “I love soup when it’s cold outside, but bog is even better,” Vandelune said. “I had it at my friend’s house for the first time last year, and I loved it. Her mom has been making it since she was little, and she used to tell me about it all the time. It is definitely something you should try when the weather is cold. It is so comforting and delicious.” Another way to indulge in cold weather foods is baking. The possibilities of baking allow for an exploration of different food combinations you may never have thought of. For some, like

news Rules . . . Continued from 1 The new rules maintain the existing standard that justices decide for themselves whether they should step aside from a case. “A justice is presumed impartial and has an obligation to sit unless disqualified,” the rules say. Until this year, the Supreme Court justices were not seen as having serious ethical problems. By law, judges and justices are required to disclose the cost of travel and lodging that is paid for by others. Ethics laws forbid judges from accepting gifts from people “whose interests may be substantially affected” by a decision. The justices are also required by law to step aside or recuse themselves from deciding cases where their “impartiality might reasonably be questioned.” But earlier this year, ProPublica and other news organizations reported Thomas has regularly taken large and undisclosed gifts that came to him only because he sits on the nation’s highest court. They include a decade’s worth of free luxury vacations and travel on a private jet owned by Crow. Private school tuition for a child Thomas was raising was paid for as was the purchase and renovation of his mother’s house in Savannah, Ga. Thomas turned to another wealthy friend to pay $267,000 to buy him a luxury recreational vehicle. In June, ProPublica reported that in 2008 Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. had taken a free and undisclosed fishing trip to Alaska on a private jet owned by hedge fund billionaire Paul Singer. Six years later, the Supreme Court by a 7-1 vote ruled against Argentina and in favor of NML Capital, a hedge fund founded by Singer that had been suing over defaulted bonds since 2003. Alito joined the majority. He wrote in the Wall Street

Journal that he did not step aside from the case because he “was not aware and had no good reason to be aware that Mr. Singer had an interest” in it, even though his role was highlighted in many news stories. One of the revised new rules announced Monday could have ensnared Thomas if all of his travels were known. In September, ProPublica reported Thomas took another undisclosed private jet trip to Palm Springs to speak at a Koch family event in 2018.

The IRS requires the same disclosure, and state officials said this information on file helps investigate possible frauds by charities. But the Supreme Court’s conservative majority struck down the state regulation in 2021. Joining the majority, Thomas wrote a separate opinion arguing the court should have gone further to declare the 1st Amendment protects “the privacy of association.” That includes “the right to associate anonymously,” he wrote in

OPEN YOUR HEART TO GOD! “Open your heart and let him in. God will remove all your sorrow and sin. He may not pass this way again, so open your heart and let him come in.” These are words from an old hymn. Many struggle so hard to take this step, not wanting to give up their independence; not wanting to humble themselves before God. In the Psalms, David said: “When I refused to confess my sin, my body wasted away, and I groaned all the day long. Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me. My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat. Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide my guilt. I said to myself, ‘I will confess my rebellion to the Lord.’ And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone.” (32:3-5 NLT) It seems so simple, and it is! Yet, so many
struggle with honesty and humility. These qualities are of great importance with God. The truth is another has paid the penalty for your sins and mine. That is the good news! What we could not do (get rid of our sins), Jesus did by dying in our place. Therefore, “Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven,whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.” (Ro.4:7-8 NIV) Again, blaming friends or relatives will not help; getting religious does not help, thinking you are among the “better” people does no good. Trust what God has done for you through Christ. Get honest and humble yourself before God. Confess your sinfulness, and God will freely forgive. You will be free of guilt and stand innocent before God. Then you can begin a lasting and fruitful relationship with this great and loving God.
Americans for Prosperity vs. Bont a, adding it would cast doubt on “compelled disclosure laws.” The rules issued Monday say a “justice should not speak to or participate in a meeting organized by a group that has a substantial financial interest in the outcome of a case” or if doing so “would create an appearance of impropriety.” Ethics experts, progressives and Senate Democrats have pointed to Thomas and Alito as proof the high court’s system of self-policing had failed. “It’s unacceptable for the
highest court in the land to have the lowest ethical standards,” said Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) said earlier this year. Republicans and the conservative media, including the Wall Street Journal, stood behind the court and dismissed the ethics controversy as partisan and overblown. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell has dismissed the ethics controversy as an attempt to smear and defame justices appointed by Republican presidents. news.ed@ocolly.com

Ballot . . . Continued from 1 The amendment, which dates back to the aftermath of the Civil War,
says no one can hold office if they have previously taken an oath to support the Constitution but “engaged in insurrection or rebellion.” Some legal experts, including retired judge J. Michael Luttig and Laurence Tribe, a constitutional law professor at Harvard University, have said the 14th Amendment should prevent Trump
from running for president again after efforts to overturn his loss to Biden in 2020 included his supporters storming the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump’s lawyers have said Benson and the court itself lacked the authority to block Trump’s name from appearing on ballots, and the events of Jan. 6, 2021, were a riot, not an insurrection.
Benson has already said Trump will be on Michigan’s ballots next year unless a court intervenes and rules otherwise. Michigan’s Bureau of Elections previously issued a letter, determining that state election law “did not expressly authorize” Benson to make eligibility decisions regarding candidates’ qualifications and the 14th Amendment. news.ed@ocolly.com
