The Supreme Court said Friday it will decide whether former President Donald Trump can be kept off the ballot because of his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, inserting the court squarely in the 2024 presidential campaign.
The justices acknowledged the need to reach a decision quickly, as voters will soon begin casting presidential primary ballots across the country. The court agreed to take up Trump's appeal of a case from Colorado stemming from his role in the events that culminated in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Arguments will be held in early February.

,1,The United States Supreme Court ruled that classroom diversity is no longer a compelling interest to justify using race in college admissions, overturning past precedents that had upheld affirmative action for decades. Race alone can no longer act as an adequate substitute for the diversity of perspectives and ideas that students bring. Race-based affirmative action now faces new legal vulnerabilities, including potential lawsuits against other private and public institutions.

ISSUES DISCUSSED
Jesús Fernández-Villaverde, the Howard Marks Presidential Professor of Economics at the University of Pennsylvania, discussed “The Wealth of Working Nations,” a paper with Gustavo Ventura (Arizona State University) and Wen Yao (Tsinghua University).
John Taylor, the Mary and Robert Raymond Professor of Economics at Stanford University and the George P. Shultz Senior Fellow in Economics at the Hoover Institution, was the moderator.
PAPER SUMMARY
Due to population aging, GDP growth per capita and GDP growth per working-age adult have become quite different among many advanced economies over the last several decades. Countries whose GDP growth per capita performance has been lackluster, like Japan, have done surprisingly well in terms of GDP growth per working-age adult. Indeed, from 1998 to 2019, Japan has grown slightly faster than the U.S. in terms of per working-age adult: an accumulated 31.9% vs. 29.5%. Furthermore, many advanced economies appear to be on parallel balanced growth trajectories in terms of working-age adults despite important differences in levels. Motivated by this observation, we calibrate a standard neoclassical growth model in which the growth of the working-age adult population varies in line with the data for each economy. Despite the underlying demographic differences, the calibrated model tracks output per workingage adult in most economies of our sample. Our results imply that the growth behavior of mature, aging economies is not puzzling from a theoretical perspective.

,1,Imagine that an organization that brands conservatives and Christians "haters" and puts them on a map with the Ku Klux Klan advises the federal government on its "domestic terrorism" strategy. A chilling new video suggests that this Orwellian nightmare is our current reality under the Biden administration. Americans' own government apparently sees law-abiding conservatives as a "domestic terrorism threat," and nothing illustrates that quite so well as President Joe Biden's ties to the Southern Poverty Law Center.
