Don't know the exact difficulty but Lightfoot v Bowen is back up on the Supreme Court docket. It is still alive (on paper) and is still scheduled for conference tomorrow.
How can the Court even look at something they have already intervened on? What is Roberts going to say? Uh-oh x 2? Their secret little meeting with barry and biden and their respective counsel says it all.

Kuma's Corner on Belmont Avenue in Chicago is serving a "Bleeping Blago Burger".
It's served between two American cheese sandwiches, topped with bologna and has a large $ in mustard on the top.
The rest of their menu has Heavy Metal titles: Black Sabbath, Metallica, Led Zeppelin...
How about a "Pay-to-play" pup. A hot dog with everything and extra shredded lettuce on top.

Israeli Prime Minister EHUD OLMERT:
[The Israeli army's objectives were to] strike at the military infrastructure that Hamas has established and to take control of the areas from which most of the missiles have been fired at Israeli territory.
Hamas has fired 220 rockets into southern Israel in the past week from the areas of Gaza that Israeli troops have now entered.
In a responsible and determined country. It cannot be that the home front will be subject to attack and a daring, strong and well-trained military does not defend it.
We did not reach this conclusion lightly. For many months, we gave the calm a chance in the hope of avoiding a wide-ranging military operation. Our hopes were dashed.
This operation was unavoidable.
[Israel would not] allow a humanitarian crisis to be created in the Gaza Strip. We will help supply food and medicines like any enlightened and moral country must do.
The unenlightened: Hamas spokesman Ismail Radwan with Fawzi Barhoum (Gaza Hamas) blinking in Morse Code next to him. His hands are so pale he must truly be living in a cave. Listen to their concern for the innocent civilians they are cowardly hiding amongst and watch the glee when he talks of killing.
To the Israeli Army: Your incursion in Gaza will not be a picnic. And we promise you that Gaza will be your cemetery. God willing.
You have no choice but to end this aggression and end the siege without any condition. You will not live in peace until our Palestinian people live in peace.
We will not abandon the battlefield, and we will stay on the thorny course, and we will fight until the last breath.

Milorad gets rudely awakened by the Feds. His response: Is this a joke?
It was a ridiculously staged dramatic arrest. Why the need to wake him up? Why the need for handcuffs? It's not like they didn't know where he was. He has a security detail the Feds could have just called. But no - they needed their 15 minutes. No matter what they think he did - no matter how the rest of the Illinois politicians hate him - he should have been allowed to surrender himself and there's no way they needed handcuffs. It's wrong and most likely got him a juror. He got those workers their money. Mayor Daley didn't. Barry didn't and neither did Patrick Fitzgerald or the feds. it was wrong.
OBAMA: THIS IS A PART OF THE WORLD THAT I STUDIED DEEPLY! DON'T THINK THAT I CARE ANY LESS THAN RUDY GIULIANI OR MITT ROMNEY ABOUT MY DAUGHTERS BEING BLOWN UP!
"Things got ugly fast. Jefferson's camp accused President Adams of having a "hideous hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman."Hmm...neither the force and firmness of a man nor the sensibility of a woman.
"In return, Adams' men called Vice President Jefferson "a mean-spirited, low-lived fellow, the son of a half-breed Indian squaw, sired by a Virginia mulatto father."Hmm...mean-spirited biracial man.
