SCALIA-Here’s how the law would dramatically change if a liberal replaces Scalia-Stuart Taylor Jr.-February 15, 2016-yahoonews
If President Obama — or his successor — replaces the late Justice Antonin Scalia with a strong liberal, the Supreme Court’s balance will swing dramatically to the left in the coming years. It might well be the biggest ideological swing in recent memory.Indeed, American politics has not seen a moment like this one since 1987. That was when the retirement of moderate Justice Lewis Powell, who was the pivotal vote on many big issues, left the court with four strong conservatives and four strong liberals. (The latter included Sandra Day O’Connor, whose votes through 1987 had been quite conservative.) It was clear then that if the Democratic-majority Senate confirmed President Ronald Reagan’s first nominee, the very conservative Judge Robert Bork — as at first seemed likely — the court would swing hard to the right.Bork himself later told me and others that he would have been the fifth vote to overrule Roe v. Wade and a lot more liberal precedents. But Democratic senators and liberal interest groups went all out to stop him and succeeded by a 58-42 vote.Now the court has four strong liberals, three strong conservatives and one less consistent conservative, Justice Anthony Kennedy. He sometimes joins the liberal bloc on issues including abortion, gay rights and the death penalty. Kennedy also happens to be the Reagan nominee whom the Senate confirmed after Bork’s defeat.If and when a liberal replaces Scalia, therefore, the court will likely overrule or cut back sharply major conservative precedents including those limiting abortion rights, those restricting race-based affirmative action (in theory if not so much in practice) and those giving strong First Amendment protection to unlimited spending in election campaigns.Below is a quick rundown of what the court might do — not necessarily in the next year or two, but perhaps within five or so years — if a fifth liberal tips the balance.Race. A liberal replacement for Scalia would make a dramatic difference on racial issues, on which the court has long been deeply divided by 5-4, with conservatives in the majority, usually including Kennedy.These issues include racial affirmative action preferences in state university admissions, government hiring and employment, and other walks of life; Justice Department supervision of state and local voting rights laws; and efforts to make it easier for poor and black people to vote.Indeed, a liberal majority would almost certainly overrule the court’s application of “strict scrutiny” to “benign” racial preferences since 1978 and disregard its 2003 suggestion that racial preferences in state university admissions must end within 25 years, by 2028.The effect could be to ensure that racial preferences — a major priority of Democratic interest groups — will continue well past 2050 and perhaps far into the next century.Eric Holder, Obama’s first attorney general, spoke for many liberals when he asserted in 2012 that the previous 40 years of racial preference programs had been “a relatively small period of time in which African-Americans and other people of color have truly had the benefits to which they are entitled.”Holder continued: “I can’t actually imagine a time in which the need for diversity” — engineered, he implied, by racial preferences — “will ever cease.”Kennedy has sought (without much impact) to limit racial preferences in state college admissions and other government programs, while stopping short of joining Scalia and other conservatives in seeking to outlaw preferences. A liberal replacement for Scalia would cement a solid 5-4 majority for broad approval of racial preferences.Aggressive federal judicial efforts to force more spending on inner-city schools, which the court blocked in a big 1973 decision, might also be revived. On the other hand, liberals might be restrained by the fact that many urban school districts already spend more per student than ever before, and more than many prosperous suburban schools.Campaign finance regulation. A liberal replacement for Scalia would probably work a sea change on campaign finance regulation. The 5-4 Citizens United decision in 2010, a target of liberal disdain for upholding corporations’ First Amendment rights to spend unlimited amounts on campaigns, would almost surely be overruled.The court would also likely sweep away other precedents upholding unlimited “independent” campaign spending. This would gratify Democrats and to a large extent protect incumbent elected officials.But it would be seen by many Republicans as designed to solidify the Democratic advantage that, they say, comes for free from campaign coverage and commentary the unregulated, predominantly liberal mainstream news media. Congress has exempted media corporations from restrictions on spending in support of candidates.Other free speech issues. A liberal replacement for Scalia might well foreshadow Supreme Court support for speech codes and other limitations on controversial speech — seen by some as sexual or racial harassment — that the Obama Education Department and many universities have imposed on students.The court has not so far been active in this area. But the issue is bound to come before it in the next few years. More generally, while liberals were more friendly to free speech than conservatives for most of the 20th century, the reverse is now true.Abortion. Constitutional abortion rights have long rested on a precarious 5-4 majority, with Kennedy joining the four liberals on some (not all) key votes. A liberal replacement for Scalia would guarantee almost unlimited abortion rights, probably far into the future.Freedom of religion. A liberal replacement for Scalia would probably be the fifth vote to overrule the 2014 Hobby Lobby decision and require religious employers and other groups to provide health insurance including free contraceptives and take other actions that they say violates their freedom of religion.Environment. A liberal replacement for Scalia might well reverse decisions including the court’s 5-4 ruling last week temporarily blocking the Obama administration’s effort to combat global warming by regulating emissions from coal-fired power plants.Federal power. A liberal replacement for Scalia would cement a majority to sweep away virtually all limits on federal regulation of the economy, many of which have been dismantled already in the Obamacare decisions, with John Roberts, the usually conservative chief justice, writing for the otherwise-liberal majority.Gun rights. A liberal replacement for Scalia might be the fifth vote to cut back on or overrule the 2008 Scalia majority opinion in District of Columbia v. Heller and subsequent Supreme Court decisions recognizing a constitutional right to keep and bear arms.Death penalty. A liberal replacement for Scalia would insure invalidation of more death penalty laws, although not necessarily complete abolition of the penalty. The court has already struck down various death penalty provisions while narrowly upholding others, such as a 2015 decision allowing use of execution drugs that were alleged to cause excruciating pain. That decision, among others, could be overruled or pared back to its specific facts.National security. A liberal replacement for Scalia might increase the already unprecedented judicial intervention into national security matters that the court pioneered in three liberal decisions (joined by Kennedy) involving the George W. Bush administration’s detention of suspected terrorists in Guantanamo.For most of our history, national security issues were treated by the court as almost the exclusive province of the president and Congress. That changed under Bush. If a liberal replaces Scalia, the justices might well become bolder in second-guessing presidents — Republicans especially.Importing foreign law into constitutional interpretation. A liberal replacement for Scalia would open wider the doors to using foreign law to interpret (some say “amend”) the meaning of the U.S. Constitution. This has been a trend favored by the liberals (and Kennedy). Scalia has been the most vocal opponent.Would respect for precedent restrain a liberal majority? Not much, or not for long, probably. While nominees habitually and sincerely vow to respect precedents during their confirmation hearings, the vows have been a bit misleading. Liberal and conservative justices alike have long been ready severely (if respectfully) to limit or to overrule constitutional precedents they don’t like, while seeking to avoid outright overruling until the precedent has been on the books for a few years.This is consistent with the views of many legal scholars that because constitutional precedents cannot normally be overruled by Congress, and should not be treated as though written in stone, they should be subject to reconsideration by the court.To be sure, the justices have traditionally been very reluctant to overrule the court’s statutory interpretations, on the theory that Congress can overrule any statutory precedents it does not like and that therefore the court should leave them alone for the sake of stability and predictability in the law. Constitutional precedents are different.Furthermore, both liberals and conservatives have proved adept, when they have the votes, at the technique sometimes called “stealth overruling.” Precedents once thought to sweep broadly are read so narrowly that the dominant thrust of the law becomes the exact opposite of what it was before.Might there be a compromise on a moderate nominee? Unlikely, in these polarized times, unless one side holds out an olive branch to the other early in the process. Behind the scenes, Republicans are well aware that both of President Bill Clinton’s appointees — Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer — seemed to be moderate liberals when nominated but have ended up solidifying the liberal bloc.Only that disappearing breed — the moderate senator willing to work across the aisle in the larger national interest, or a president more interested in actually getting someone onto the court than in getting his ideal candidate — could begin to broker a deal.In the absence of a quietly brokered deal involving sacrifice by both sides, anyone whose views on any big issue are known could probably not get past both the White House and the Senate, this year or in the foreseeable future. And anyone whose views are totally unknown would be seen by both sides as too big a risk.Stuart Taylor Jr. covered legal affairs for the New York Times, American Lawyer, Newsweek and National Journal and is co-author of the book “Mismatch: How Affirmative Action Hurts Students It’s Intended to Help, and Why Universities Won’t Admit It.”
Prosecutor: Most Cologne New Year's suspects are refugees-Associated Press-feb 15,16-yahoonews
BERLIN (AP) — Most of the suspects identified in connection with a series of robberies and sexual assaults in Cologne during New Year's celebrations are refugees, prosecutors said Monday.The crimes, described as unprecedented by authorities, sparked uproar in Germany and a heated debate about the country's ability to integrate almost 1.1 million people who sought asylum there last year.Cologne prosecutor Ulrich Bremer said 73 suspects have been identified so far — most of them from North Africa. A total of 1,075 criminal complaints have been filed, including 467 alleging crimes of a sexual nature ranging from insults to rape."The overwhelming majority of persons fall into the general category of refugees," Bremer told The Associated Press, saying recent reports describing only three of the suspects as refugees were "total nonsense."Initially, authorities in Cologne were accused of downplaying the fact that the attackers included many asylum-seekers because of the political sensitivity of the issue.The suspects included 30 Moroccan nationals, 27 Algerians, four Iraqis, three Germans, three Syrians, three Tunisians, and one each from Libya, Iran and Montenegro, Bremer said."They have various legal statuses, including illegal entry, asylum-seekers and asylum applicants," he said of the foreign suspects. "That covers the overwhelming majority of suspects."Twelve of the 73 suspects are linked to sexual crimes, though only one of those — a Moroccan asylum-seeker who entered Germany in November — is in custody, he said.
Around 50 dead as missiles hit medical centers and schools in Syrian towns-Reuters By Suleiman Al-Khalidi and Lisa Barrington-feb 15,16-yahoonews
AMMAN/BEIRUT (Reuters) - About 50 civilians were killed when missiles hit five medical centers and two schools in rebel-held Syrian towns on Monday, the United Nations and residents said.The carnage occurred as Russian-backed Syrian troops intensified their push toward the rebel stronghold of Aleppo.Fourteen people were killed in the town of Azaz near the Turkish border when missiles slammed into a school sheltering families fleeing the offensive and a children's hospital, two residents and a medic said.Bombs also hit another refugee shelter south of the town and a convoy of trucks, another resident said."We have been moving scores of screaming children from the hospital," medic Juma Rahal said.At least two children were killed and scores of people injured, he said.Activists posted video online purporting to show the damaged hospital. Three crying babies lay in incubators in a ward littered with broken medical equipment. Reuters could not independently verify the video.In a separate incident, missiles hit another hospital in the town of Marat Numan in Idlib province, in northwestern Syria, said the French president of the Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) charity, which was supporting the hospital."There were at least seven deaths among the personnel and the patients, and at least eight MSF personnel have disappeared, and we don't know if they are alive," Mego Terzian told Reuters."The author of the strike is clearly...either the government or Russia," he said, adding that it was not the first time MSF facilities in Syria had been attacked.The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which tracks violence across the country, said one male nurse was killed and five female nurses, a doctor and one male nurse are believed to be under the rubble in the MSF hospital.Also in Marat Numan, another strike hit the National Hospital on the north edge of town, killing two nurses, the Observatory said.VIOLATION OF INTERNATIONAL LAW-United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the attacks, which the U.N. said killed close to 50 civilians, were a blatant violation of international laws."These incidents cast a shadow on the commitments made at the ISSG (International Syria Support Group) meeting in Munich on Feb. 11," U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq said.The United States also condemned the intensified bombing of northern Syria and said it ran counter to commitments made by world powers in Munich last week to reduce hostilities.Residents in both towns blamed Russian strikes, saying the planes deployed were more numerous and the munitions more powerful than the Syrian military typically used."The hospitals hit today have been rendered completely non-functioning...such attacks, whether deliberate or not, deprive people of the very limited services still available in the country," a spokeswoman for the International Committee of the Red Cross said.Rescue workers and rights groups say Russian bombing has killed scores of civilians at market places, hospitals, schools and residential areas in Syria. Western countries also say Russia has been attacking mostly Western-backed insurgent groups.But Moscow has said it is targeting terrorist groups and dismissed any suggestion it has killed civilians since beginning its air campaign in support of President Bashar al-Assad's forces in September.The town of Azaz has been the scene of fierce fighting as Kurdish anti-government forces advance from the west. They have reached the edge of town, only a few kilometres away from the main Bab al Salam border crossing. The Syrian army is advancing from the south.Both the Kurds and the army want to wrest control of that stretch of border with Turkey from the insurgents that currently hold Azaz.Russian bombing raids on rebel fighters are helping the Syrian army to advance toward Aleppo, the country's largest city and commercial center before the conflict. If the army takes the city, it will by the Syrian government's biggest victory of the war.(Additional reporting by Pauline Mevel in Paris; Editing by Katharine Houreld)
Germany expects 500,000 refugees this year: newspaper-Reuters-feb 15,16-yahoonews
BERLIN (Reuters) - The German government expects 500,000 refugees to come to Germany this year, German newspaper Rheinische Post cited sources from the Federal Labor Office as saying.German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere told Frank-Juergen Weise, head of both the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) and the Federal Labor Office, to prepare for an influx of that size this year, the newspaper said in an advance copy of a report due to be published on Tuesday.The German Interior Ministry was not immediately available to comment on the report.Last year some 1.1 million migrants arrived in Germany. German media tend to use the word refugee to refer to both refugees and migrants.(Reporting by Michelle Martin; Editing by Alison Williams)

U.S. admiral warns against Chinese fighter flights from South China Sea runways-Reuters By Rujun Shen-feb 15,16-yahoonews
SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Any move by China to fly jet fighters from runways on its new man-made islands in the disputed South China Sea would be destabilizing and would not deter U.S. flights over the area, a senior U.S. naval officer said on Monday.Vice Admiral Joseph Aucoin, the commander of the U.S. Navy's Seventh Fleet, also urged Beijing to be more open over its intentions in the South China Sea, saying it would relieve "some of the angst we are now seeing"."We are unsure where they are taking us," Aucoin said of China's recent moves during briefing with journalists in Singapore."So we are going to sail, fly, operate throughout these waters....like we have been doing for so long," he said.That, he added, included "flying over that airspace."Chinese and regional security analysts expect Beijing to start using its new runways in the disputed Spratlys archipelago for military operations in the next few months.It last month tested for the first time the 3,000-metre runway built on a reclamation on Fiery Cross Reef by landing several civilian airliners from Hainan island. (Link to previous stories)-Aucoin said he could not give an estimate when he expected Chinese military jets to start operating in the Spratlys."It's a destabilizing uncertainty," he said when asked about the impact of possible Chinese jet fighter patrols. He said it would raise questions about the intentions.China claims much of the South China Sea, while Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam have rival claims.International concern is growing over tensions in the waterway, which carries an estimated $5 trillion in trade every year, including oil used by northeast Asian nations.Since last October, two U.S. warships have sailed close to Chinese claimed features in the Spratly and Paracel archipelagoes in so-called freedom-of-navigation operations that Beijing has warned are provocative.Chinese officials complained last December that a U.S. B-52 bomber flew close to one of Beijing's artificial islands.Other U.S. surveillance and transport planes routinely fly throughout the South China Sea.Chinese warships and civilian vessels routinely flank U.S. naval ships in the area, but Aucoin said engagement between the two navies would continue, saying the relationship was "positive"."(The) International Law of the Sea has helped (China) for so many years. We just want them to respect those rights so that we can all continue to prosper," he said.(Reporting by Rujun Shen in Singapore; writing by Greg Torode in Hong Kong; Editing by Simon Cameron-Moore)
Investigator asks U.N. to notify North Korea's Kim of possible probe for crimes against humanity-Reuters By Tom Miles-feb 15,16-yahoonews
GENEVA (Reuters) - A U.N. expert on human rights in North Korea has asked the United Nations to officially notify North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that he may be investigated for crimes against humanity.A landmark 2014 report on North Korean human rights, co-authored by Marzuki Darusman, concluded that North Korean security chiefs and possibly Kim himself should face justice for overseeing a system of Nazi-style atrocities.Pyongyang has consistently brushed off the allegations and rejected any responsibility for human rights violations.In a report to the U.N. Human Rights Council, Darusman recommended that the Council arrange an official communication, sent directly to Kim and signed by Darusman or U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein."(It should) advise him and other senior leaders that they may be investigated and, if found to be responsible, held accountable for crimes against humanity committed under their leadership," Darusman wrote.His report, dated Jan. 19 but published on Monday, also said three experts should be appointed to find the best legal path to hold North Korea to account and find "creative and practical" ways to establish the truth and ensure justice for victims.Darusman stressed the importance of using the International Criminal Court but said it was "able to handle only the uppermost leadership".Only the U.N. Security Council can involve the court, but North Korea's sole ally, China, a veto-wielding member of the top U.N. body, has repeatedly rejected calls for the Security Council to tackle human rights in North Korea.However, China said on Friday it would back a U.N. resolution to make North Korea "pay the necessary price" for recent North Korean rocket launches, with the aim of bringing Pyongyang back to the negotiating table.Darusman's report, which will be considered by the Human Rights Council next month, said the human rights situation in North Korea did not appear to have improved.However, he said that last September North Korea had invited Zeid to visit and expressed interest in continuing discussions on technical assistance from the U.N. human rights office.(Reporting by Tom Miles; Editing by Mark Heinrich)
North Korea's Kim Orders More Rocket Launches-By hyung-jin kim, associated press-SEOUL, South Korea — Feb 14, 2016, 9:55 PM ET
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has praised scientists involved in the country's recent rocket launch that he said struck a "telling blow" to enemies and ordered them to press ahead with more launches, state media reported Monday.Earlier this month, North Korea ignored repeated international warnings and launched what it said was an Earth observation satellite aboard a rocket. Washington, Seoul and other view the launch as a prohibited test of missile technology and are pushing hard to have Pyongyang slapped with strong sanctions.The North's official Korean Central News Agency said the ruling Workers' Party on Saturday gave a banquet in honor of scientists, officials and others who it said contributed to the Feb. 7 rocket launch. Kim and his top deputies were present.In a speech, Kim said the launch gave confidence and courage to his people and dealt a "telling blow to the enemies seeking to block the advance of our country," KCNA said, in an apparent reference to Seoul and Washington.Kim said the North's launch decision was made when "the hostile forces were getting evermore frantic to suffocate" North Korea, and called for launching more working satellites in the future.The launch, which followed the North's fourth nuclear test last month, aggravated already-strained ties between the rival Koreas. Last week, Pyongyang expelled all South Korean workers from a jointly run factory park in the North and put the area in charge of the military in retaliation for Seoul's decision to suspend operations there.Seoul on Sunday accused North Korea of having channeled about 70 percent of the money it received for workers at the Kaesong park into its weapons programs and to buy luxury goods for the impoverished nation's tiny elite.North Korea was able to divert the money because the workers in Kaesong were not paid directly. Instead, U.S. dollars were paid to the North Korean government, which siphoned off most of the money and paid only what it wanted to the employees in North Korean currency and store vouchers, according to a statement from Seoul's' Unification Ministry.The South Korean government estimate did not detail how it arrived at that percentage. North Korea has previously dismissed such views.The jointly run park, which was the Koreas' last major cooperation project, employed about 54,000 North Koreans who worked for more than 120 South Korean companies, most of them small and medium-size manufacturers. The project, which began during an era of relatively good relations between the Koreas, combined cheap North Korean labor with the capital and technology of wealthy South Korea.While the Kaesong closure will hurt North Korea, it is not critical to that nation's economy. North Korea gets the vast majority of its earnings from trade with China.——Associated Press writer Kim Tong-hyung contributed to this report.

Pope courts indigenous Mexicans as Catholic fervor fades-Reuters By Philip Pullella and Joanna Zuckerman Bernstein-feb 15,16-yahoonews
SAN CRISTOBAL DE LAS CASAS, Mexico (Reuters) - Pope Francis embraced the people of Mexico's poor indigenous south on Monday, denouncing their "systemic" exclusion from society and encouraging the use of native languages in Catholic worship in a bid to stem a tide of Protestant conversions.The region, mired in poverty and plagued by rising insecurity, has fallen far behind other parts of the country economically.Preaching to a packed crowd at a sports ground in the southern state of Chiapas, the pope quoted the Popol Vuh, a sacred Maya text, and drew comparisons between Catholic and indigenous values."Today's world, ravaged as it is by a throwaway culture, needs you!" he said as he celebrated a Mass that included bible readings in native tongues, referring to the mostly indigenous throngs who loudly cheered him."You have much to teach us," he said, lauding Mexico's native peoples while denouncing "the systemic and organized way your people have been misunderstood and excluded from society."He said the Mass before a Hollywood-style stage set replica of the facade of the colonial-era city's main cathedral.Many women wore indigenous dress of black skirts and colorful tops, their hair braided with ribbons. Parts of the Mass were said in the Tzeltal, Ch'ol and Tzotzil languages.Factory worker Alma Gonzalez, 23, who speaks Spanish and Otomi and traveled from the State of Mexico to hear the pope, was touched he was reaching out to her people."I'm indigenous ... I want to thank him for paying attention to us, the poor," she said.The pope last year apologized for the role of the Church in the conquest of Latin America and left a Vatican decree while in Chiapas authorizing translations of the liturgy into indigenous languages.The state of Chiapas was the scene of the Zapatista uprising of Maya rebels in the 1990s. It is now the frontline of a government crackdown on illegal immigration to the United States from Central America.When the Zapatistas burst onto the scene, more than two- thirds of Chiapas' population was Roman Catholic. The expansion of evangelical Christianity through poor indigenous towns since has driven the number down to around 60 percent, making it Mexico's least-Catholic region.In the colonial mountain city of San Cristobal de las Casas, the pope prayed in front of the tomb of Bishop Samuel Ruiz, a champion for indigenous rights who served as a mediator between the Zapatistas and the government.Ruiz, who died in 2011, long lobbied to permit Mass in languages such as Tzotzil because many of the region's Maya residents do not speak Spanish.The pope then headed to the state capital, Tuxtla Gutierrez, where he held a rally at a packed stadium and met local families.Francis is visiting some of the most marginalized parts of Mexico. On Sunday, he took a swipe at the rich and corrupt elite in a Mass near the cinder block slums of Ecatepec, one of the country's most violent cities.The poverty rate in Chiapas, already the most impoverished state in Mexico, has risen in recent years to more than three-quarters of the population.Mexico, with help from the United States, has increased patrols on its southern border and is deporting more Central American migrants trying to reach the United States.Thousands of people from neighboring Guatemala are believed to have crossed over the porous border of rivers and jungle in Chiapas for a chance to see the pope.On Tuesday, he will speak to youths in Morelia, the capital of Michoacan state, where warring drug gangs cook much of the methamphetamine smuggled into the United States.He will then travel to Ciudad Juarez, which borders the U.S. state of Texas, where he will pray for migrants and victims of violence.(Additional reporting by Adriana Barrera; Writing by Michael O'Boyle, David Alire Garcia and Simon Gardner; Editing by Kieran Murray, Alan Crosby and Dan Grebler)
If President Obama — or his successor — replaces the late Justice Antonin Scalia with a strong liberal, the Supreme Court’s balance will swing dramatically to the left in the coming years. It might well be the biggest ideological swing in recent memory.Indeed, American politics has not seen a moment like this one since 1987. That was when the retirement of moderate Justice Lewis Powell, who was the pivotal vote on many big issues, left the court with four strong conservatives and four strong liberals. (The latter included Sandra Day O’Connor, whose votes through 1987 had been quite conservative.) It was clear then that if the Democratic-majority Senate confirmed President Ronald Reagan’s first nominee, the very conservative Judge Robert Bork — as at first seemed likely — the court would swing hard to the right.Bork himself later told me and others that he would have been the fifth vote to overrule Roe v. Wade and a lot more liberal precedents. But Democratic senators and liberal interest groups went all out to stop him and succeeded by a 58-42 vote.Now the court has four strong liberals, three strong conservatives and one less consistent conservative, Justice Anthony Kennedy. He sometimes joins the liberal bloc on issues including abortion, gay rights and the death penalty. Kennedy also happens to be the Reagan nominee whom the Senate confirmed after Bork’s defeat.If and when a liberal replaces Scalia, therefore, the court will likely overrule or cut back sharply major conservative precedents including those limiting abortion rights, those restricting race-based affirmative action (in theory if not so much in practice) and those giving strong First Amendment protection to unlimited spending in election campaigns.Below is a quick rundown of what the court might do — not necessarily in the next year or two, but perhaps within five or so years — if a fifth liberal tips the balance.Race. A liberal replacement for Scalia would make a dramatic difference on racial issues, on which the court has long been deeply divided by 5-4, with conservatives in the majority, usually including Kennedy.These issues include racial affirmative action preferences in state university admissions, government hiring and employment, and other walks of life; Justice Department supervision of state and local voting rights laws; and efforts to make it easier for poor and black people to vote.Indeed, a liberal majority would almost certainly overrule the court’s application of “strict scrutiny” to “benign” racial preferences since 1978 and disregard its 2003 suggestion that racial preferences in state university admissions must end within 25 years, by 2028.The effect could be to ensure that racial preferences — a major priority of Democratic interest groups — will continue well past 2050 and perhaps far into the next century.Eric Holder, Obama’s first attorney general, spoke for many liberals when he asserted in 2012 that the previous 40 years of racial preference programs had been “a relatively small period of time in which African-Americans and other people of color have truly had the benefits to which they are entitled.”Holder continued: “I can’t actually imagine a time in which the need for diversity” — engineered, he implied, by racial preferences — “will ever cease.”Kennedy has sought (without much impact) to limit racial preferences in state college admissions and other government programs, while stopping short of joining Scalia and other conservatives in seeking to outlaw preferences. A liberal replacement for Scalia would cement a solid 5-4 majority for broad approval of racial preferences.Aggressive federal judicial efforts to force more spending on inner-city schools, which the court blocked in a big 1973 decision, might also be revived. On the other hand, liberals might be restrained by the fact that many urban school districts already spend more per student than ever before, and more than many prosperous suburban schools.Campaign finance regulation. A liberal replacement for Scalia would probably work a sea change on campaign finance regulation. The 5-4 Citizens United decision in 2010, a target of liberal disdain for upholding corporations’ First Amendment rights to spend unlimited amounts on campaigns, would almost surely be overruled.The court would also likely sweep away other precedents upholding unlimited “independent” campaign spending. This would gratify Democrats and to a large extent protect incumbent elected officials.But it would be seen by many Republicans as designed to solidify the Democratic advantage that, they say, comes for free from campaign coverage and commentary the unregulated, predominantly liberal mainstream news media. Congress has exempted media corporations from restrictions on spending in support of candidates.Other free speech issues. A liberal replacement for Scalia might well foreshadow Supreme Court support for speech codes and other limitations on controversial speech — seen by some as sexual or racial harassment — that the Obama Education Department and many universities have imposed on students.The court has not so far been active in this area. But the issue is bound to come before it in the next few years. More generally, while liberals were more friendly to free speech than conservatives for most of the 20th century, the reverse is now true.Abortion. Constitutional abortion rights have long rested on a precarious 5-4 majority, with Kennedy joining the four liberals on some (not all) key votes. A liberal replacement for Scalia would guarantee almost unlimited abortion rights, probably far into the future.Freedom of religion. A liberal replacement for Scalia would probably be the fifth vote to overrule the 2014 Hobby Lobby decision and require religious employers and other groups to provide health insurance including free contraceptives and take other actions that they say violates their freedom of religion.Environment. A liberal replacement for Scalia might well reverse decisions including the court’s 5-4 ruling last week temporarily blocking the Obama administration’s effort to combat global warming by regulating emissions from coal-fired power plants.Federal power. A liberal replacement for Scalia would cement a majority to sweep away virtually all limits on federal regulation of the economy, many of which have been dismantled already in the Obamacare decisions, with John Roberts, the usually conservative chief justice, writing for the otherwise-liberal majority.Gun rights. A liberal replacement for Scalia might be the fifth vote to cut back on or overrule the 2008 Scalia majority opinion in District of Columbia v. Heller and subsequent Supreme Court decisions recognizing a constitutional right to keep and bear arms.Death penalty. A liberal replacement for Scalia would insure invalidation of more death penalty laws, although not necessarily complete abolition of the penalty. The court has already struck down various death penalty provisions while narrowly upholding others, such as a 2015 decision allowing use of execution drugs that were alleged to cause excruciating pain. That decision, among others, could be overruled or pared back to its specific facts.National security. A liberal replacement for Scalia might increase the already unprecedented judicial intervention into national security matters that the court pioneered in three liberal decisions (joined by Kennedy) involving the George W. Bush administration’s detention of suspected terrorists in Guantanamo.For most of our history, national security issues were treated by the court as almost the exclusive province of the president and Congress. That changed under Bush. If a liberal replaces Scalia, the justices might well become bolder in second-guessing presidents — Republicans especially.Importing foreign law into constitutional interpretation. A liberal replacement for Scalia would open wider the doors to using foreign law to interpret (some say “amend”) the meaning of the U.S. Constitution. This has been a trend favored by the liberals (and Kennedy). Scalia has been the most vocal opponent.Would respect for precedent restrain a liberal majority? Not much, or not for long, probably. While nominees habitually and sincerely vow to respect precedents during their confirmation hearings, the vows have been a bit misleading. Liberal and conservative justices alike have long been ready severely (if respectfully) to limit or to overrule constitutional precedents they don’t like, while seeking to avoid outright overruling until the precedent has been on the books for a few years.This is consistent with the views of many legal scholars that because constitutional precedents cannot normally be overruled by Congress, and should not be treated as though written in stone, they should be subject to reconsideration by the court.To be sure, the justices have traditionally been very reluctant to overrule the court’s statutory interpretations, on the theory that Congress can overrule any statutory precedents it does not like and that therefore the court should leave them alone for the sake of stability and predictability in the law. Constitutional precedents are different.Furthermore, both liberals and conservatives have proved adept, when they have the votes, at the technique sometimes called “stealth overruling.” Precedents once thought to sweep broadly are read so narrowly that the dominant thrust of the law becomes the exact opposite of what it was before.Might there be a compromise on a moderate nominee? Unlikely, in these polarized times, unless one side holds out an olive branch to the other early in the process. Behind the scenes, Republicans are well aware that both of President Bill Clinton’s appointees — Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer — seemed to be moderate liberals when nominated but have ended up solidifying the liberal bloc.Only that disappearing breed — the moderate senator willing to work across the aisle in the larger national interest, or a president more interested in actually getting someone onto the court than in getting his ideal candidate — could begin to broker a deal.In the absence of a quietly brokered deal involving sacrifice by both sides, anyone whose views on any big issue are known could probably not get past both the White House and the Senate, this year or in the foreseeable future. And anyone whose views are totally unknown would be seen by both sides as too big a risk.Stuart Taylor Jr. covered legal affairs for the New York Times, American Lawyer, Newsweek and National Journal and is co-author of the book “Mismatch: How Affirmative Action Hurts Students It’s Intended to Help, and Why Universities Won’t Admit It.”
Prosecutor: Most Cologne New Year's suspects are refugees-Associated Press-feb 15,16-yahoonews
BERLIN (AP) — Most of the suspects identified in connection with a series of robberies and sexual assaults in Cologne during New Year's celebrations are refugees, prosecutors said Monday.The crimes, described as unprecedented by authorities, sparked uproar in Germany and a heated debate about the country's ability to integrate almost 1.1 million people who sought asylum there last year.Cologne prosecutor Ulrich Bremer said 73 suspects have been identified so far — most of them from North Africa. A total of 1,075 criminal complaints have been filed, including 467 alleging crimes of a sexual nature ranging from insults to rape."The overwhelming majority of persons fall into the general category of refugees," Bremer told The Associated Press, saying recent reports describing only three of the suspects as refugees were "total nonsense."Initially, authorities in Cologne were accused of downplaying the fact that the attackers included many asylum-seekers because of the political sensitivity of the issue.The suspects included 30 Moroccan nationals, 27 Algerians, four Iraqis, three Germans, three Syrians, three Tunisians, and one each from Libya, Iran and Montenegro, Bremer said."They have various legal statuses, including illegal entry, asylum-seekers and asylum applicants," he said of the foreign suspects. "That covers the overwhelming majority of suspects."Twelve of the 73 suspects are linked to sexual crimes, though only one of those — a Moroccan asylum-seeker who entered Germany in November — is in custody, he said.
Around 50 dead as missiles hit medical centers and schools in Syrian towns-Reuters By Suleiman Al-Khalidi and Lisa Barrington-feb 15,16-yahoonews
AMMAN/BEIRUT (Reuters) - About 50 civilians were killed when missiles hit five medical centers and two schools in rebel-held Syrian towns on Monday, the United Nations and residents said.The carnage occurred as Russian-backed Syrian troops intensified their push toward the rebel stronghold of Aleppo.Fourteen people were killed in the town of Azaz near the Turkish border when missiles slammed into a school sheltering families fleeing the offensive and a children's hospital, two residents and a medic said.Bombs also hit another refugee shelter south of the town and a convoy of trucks, another resident said."We have been moving scores of screaming children from the hospital," medic Juma Rahal said.At least two children were killed and scores of people injured, he said.Activists posted video online purporting to show the damaged hospital. Three crying babies lay in incubators in a ward littered with broken medical equipment. Reuters could not independently verify the video.In a separate incident, missiles hit another hospital in the town of Marat Numan in Idlib province, in northwestern Syria, said the French president of the Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) charity, which was supporting the hospital."There were at least seven deaths among the personnel and the patients, and at least eight MSF personnel have disappeared, and we don't know if they are alive," Mego Terzian told Reuters."The author of the strike is clearly...either the government or Russia," he said, adding that it was not the first time MSF facilities in Syria had been attacked.The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which tracks violence across the country, said one male nurse was killed and five female nurses, a doctor and one male nurse are believed to be under the rubble in the MSF hospital.Also in Marat Numan, another strike hit the National Hospital on the north edge of town, killing two nurses, the Observatory said.VIOLATION OF INTERNATIONAL LAW-United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the attacks, which the U.N. said killed close to 50 civilians, were a blatant violation of international laws."These incidents cast a shadow on the commitments made at the ISSG (International Syria Support Group) meeting in Munich on Feb. 11," U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq said.The United States also condemned the intensified bombing of northern Syria and said it ran counter to commitments made by world powers in Munich last week to reduce hostilities.Residents in both towns blamed Russian strikes, saying the planes deployed were more numerous and the munitions more powerful than the Syrian military typically used."The hospitals hit today have been rendered completely non-functioning...such attacks, whether deliberate or not, deprive people of the very limited services still available in the country," a spokeswoman for the International Committee of the Red Cross said.Rescue workers and rights groups say Russian bombing has killed scores of civilians at market places, hospitals, schools and residential areas in Syria. Western countries also say Russia has been attacking mostly Western-backed insurgent groups.But Moscow has said it is targeting terrorist groups and dismissed any suggestion it has killed civilians since beginning its air campaign in support of President Bashar al-Assad's forces in September.The town of Azaz has been the scene of fierce fighting as Kurdish anti-government forces advance from the west. They have reached the edge of town, only a few kilometres away from the main Bab al Salam border crossing. The Syrian army is advancing from the south.Both the Kurds and the army want to wrest control of that stretch of border with Turkey from the insurgents that currently hold Azaz.Russian bombing raids on rebel fighters are helping the Syrian army to advance toward Aleppo, the country's largest city and commercial center before the conflict. If the army takes the city, it will by the Syrian government's biggest victory of the war.(Additional reporting by Pauline Mevel in Paris; Editing by Katharine Houreld)
Germany expects 500,000 refugees this year: newspaper-Reuters-feb 15,16-yahoonews
BERLIN (Reuters) - The German government expects 500,000 refugees to come to Germany this year, German newspaper Rheinische Post cited sources from the Federal Labor Office as saying.German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere told Frank-Juergen Weise, head of both the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) and the Federal Labor Office, to prepare for an influx of that size this year, the newspaper said in an advance copy of a report due to be published on Tuesday.The German Interior Ministry was not immediately available to comment on the report.Last year some 1.1 million migrants arrived in Germany. German media tend to use the word refugee to refer to both refugees and migrants.(Reporting by Michelle Martin; Editing by Alison Williams)

U.S. admiral warns against Chinese fighter flights from South China Sea runways-Reuters By Rujun Shen-feb 15,16-yahoonews
SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Any move by China to fly jet fighters from runways on its new man-made islands in the disputed South China Sea would be destabilizing and would not deter U.S. flights over the area, a senior U.S. naval officer said on Monday.Vice Admiral Joseph Aucoin, the commander of the U.S. Navy's Seventh Fleet, also urged Beijing to be more open over its intentions in the South China Sea, saying it would relieve "some of the angst we are now seeing"."We are unsure where they are taking us," Aucoin said of China's recent moves during briefing with journalists in Singapore."So we are going to sail, fly, operate throughout these waters....like we have been doing for so long," he said.That, he added, included "flying over that airspace."Chinese and regional security analysts expect Beijing to start using its new runways in the disputed Spratlys archipelago for military operations in the next few months.It last month tested for the first time the 3,000-metre runway built on a reclamation on Fiery Cross Reef by landing several civilian airliners from Hainan island. (Link to previous stories)-Aucoin said he could not give an estimate when he expected Chinese military jets to start operating in the Spratlys."It's a destabilizing uncertainty," he said when asked about the impact of possible Chinese jet fighter patrols. He said it would raise questions about the intentions.China claims much of the South China Sea, while Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam have rival claims.International concern is growing over tensions in the waterway, which carries an estimated $5 trillion in trade every year, including oil used by northeast Asian nations.Since last October, two U.S. warships have sailed close to Chinese claimed features in the Spratly and Paracel archipelagoes in so-called freedom-of-navigation operations that Beijing has warned are provocative.Chinese officials complained last December that a U.S. B-52 bomber flew close to one of Beijing's artificial islands.Other U.S. surveillance and transport planes routinely fly throughout the South China Sea.Chinese warships and civilian vessels routinely flank U.S. naval ships in the area, but Aucoin said engagement between the two navies would continue, saying the relationship was "positive"."(The) International Law of the Sea has helped (China) for so many years. We just want them to respect those rights so that we can all continue to prosper," he said.(Reporting by Rujun Shen in Singapore; writing by Greg Torode in Hong Kong; Editing by Simon Cameron-Moore)
Investigator asks U.N. to notify North Korea's Kim of possible probe for crimes against humanity-Reuters By Tom Miles-feb 15,16-yahoonews
GENEVA (Reuters) - A U.N. expert on human rights in North Korea has asked the United Nations to officially notify North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that he may be investigated for crimes against humanity.A landmark 2014 report on North Korean human rights, co-authored by Marzuki Darusman, concluded that North Korean security chiefs and possibly Kim himself should face justice for overseeing a system of Nazi-style atrocities.Pyongyang has consistently brushed off the allegations and rejected any responsibility for human rights violations.In a report to the U.N. Human Rights Council, Darusman recommended that the Council arrange an official communication, sent directly to Kim and signed by Darusman or U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein."(It should) advise him and other senior leaders that they may be investigated and, if found to be responsible, held accountable for crimes against humanity committed under their leadership," Darusman wrote.His report, dated Jan. 19 but published on Monday, also said three experts should be appointed to find the best legal path to hold North Korea to account and find "creative and practical" ways to establish the truth and ensure justice for victims.Darusman stressed the importance of using the International Criminal Court but said it was "able to handle only the uppermost leadership".Only the U.N. Security Council can involve the court, but North Korea's sole ally, China, a veto-wielding member of the top U.N. body, has repeatedly rejected calls for the Security Council to tackle human rights in North Korea.However, China said on Friday it would back a U.N. resolution to make North Korea "pay the necessary price" for recent North Korean rocket launches, with the aim of bringing Pyongyang back to the negotiating table.Darusman's report, which will be considered by the Human Rights Council next month, said the human rights situation in North Korea did not appear to have improved.However, he said that last September North Korea had invited Zeid to visit and expressed interest in continuing discussions on technical assistance from the U.N. human rights office.(Reporting by Tom Miles; Editing by Mark Heinrich)
North Korea's Kim Orders More Rocket Launches-By hyung-jin kim, associated press-SEOUL, South Korea — Feb 14, 2016, 9:55 PM ET
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has praised scientists involved in the country's recent rocket launch that he said struck a "telling blow" to enemies and ordered them to press ahead with more launches, state media reported Monday.Earlier this month, North Korea ignored repeated international warnings and launched what it said was an Earth observation satellite aboard a rocket. Washington, Seoul and other view the launch as a prohibited test of missile technology and are pushing hard to have Pyongyang slapped with strong sanctions.The North's official Korean Central News Agency said the ruling Workers' Party on Saturday gave a banquet in honor of scientists, officials and others who it said contributed to the Feb. 7 rocket launch. Kim and his top deputies were present.In a speech, Kim said the launch gave confidence and courage to his people and dealt a "telling blow to the enemies seeking to block the advance of our country," KCNA said, in an apparent reference to Seoul and Washington.Kim said the North's launch decision was made when "the hostile forces were getting evermore frantic to suffocate" North Korea, and called for launching more working satellites in the future.The launch, which followed the North's fourth nuclear test last month, aggravated already-strained ties between the rival Koreas. Last week, Pyongyang expelled all South Korean workers from a jointly run factory park in the North and put the area in charge of the military in retaliation for Seoul's decision to suspend operations there.Seoul on Sunday accused North Korea of having channeled about 70 percent of the money it received for workers at the Kaesong park into its weapons programs and to buy luxury goods for the impoverished nation's tiny elite.North Korea was able to divert the money because the workers in Kaesong were not paid directly. Instead, U.S. dollars were paid to the North Korean government, which siphoned off most of the money and paid only what it wanted to the employees in North Korean currency and store vouchers, according to a statement from Seoul's' Unification Ministry.The South Korean government estimate did not detail how it arrived at that percentage. North Korea has previously dismissed such views.The jointly run park, which was the Koreas' last major cooperation project, employed about 54,000 North Koreans who worked for more than 120 South Korean companies, most of them small and medium-size manufacturers. The project, which began during an era of relatively good relations between the Koreas, combined cheap North Korean labor with the capital and technology of wealthy South Korea.While the Kaesong closure will hurt North Korea, it is not critical to that nation's economy. North Korea gets the vast majority of its earnings from trade with China.——Associated Press writer Kim Tong-hyung contributed to this report.

Pope courts indigenous Mexicans as Catholic fervor fades-Reuters By Philip Pullella and Joanna Zuckerman Bernstein-feb 15,16-yahoonews
SAN CRISTOBAL DE LAS CASAS, Mexico (Reuters) - Pope Francis embraced the people of Mexico's poor indigenous south on Monday, denouncing their "systemic" exclusion from society and encouraging the use of native languages in Catholic worship in a bid to stem a tide of Protestant conversions.The region, mired in poverty and plagued by rising insecurity, has fallen far behind other parts of the country economically.Preaching to a packed crowd at a sports ground in the southern state of Chiapas, the pope quoted the Popol Vuh, a sacred Maya text, and drew comparisons between Catholic and indigenous values."Today's world, ravaged as it is by a throwaway culture, needs you!" he said as he celebrated a Mass that included bible readings in native tongues, referring to the mostly indigenous throngs who loudly cheered him."You have much to teach us," he said, lauding Mexico's native peoples while denouncing "the systemic and organized way your people have been misunderstood and excluded from society."He said the Mass before a Hollywood-style stage set replica of the facade of the colonial-era city's main cathedral.Many women wore indigenous dress of black skirts and colorful tops, their hair braided with ribbons. Parts of the Mass were said in the Tzeltal, Ch'ol and Tzotzil languages.Factory worker Alma Gonzalez, 23, who speaks Spanish and Otomi and traveled from the State of Mexico to hear the pope, was touched he was reaching out to her people."I'm indigenous ... I want to thank him for paying attention to us, the poor," she said.The pope last year apologized for the role of the Church in the conquest of Latin America and left a Vatican decree while in Chiapas authorizing translations of the liturgy into indigenous languages.The state of Chiapas was the scene of the Zapatista uprising of Maya rebels in the 1990s. It is now the frontline of a government crackdown on illegal immigration to the United States from Central America.When the Zapatistas burst onto the scene, more than two- thirds of Chiapas' population was Roman Catholic. The expansion of evangelical Christianity through poor indigenous towns since has driven the number down to around 60 percent, making it Mexico's least-Catholic region.In the colonial mountain city of San Cristobal de las Casas, the pope prayed in front of the tomb of Bishop Samuel Ruiz, a champion for indigenous rights who served as a mediator between the Zapatistas and the government.Ruiz, who died in 2011, long lobbied to permit Mass in languages such as Tzotzil because many of the region's Maya residents do not speak Spanish.The pope then headed to the state capital, Tuxtla Gutierrez, where he held a rally at a packed stadium and met local families.Francis is visiting some of the most marginalized parts of Mexico. On Sunday, he took a swipe at the rich and corrupt elite in a Mass near the cinder block slums of Ecatepec, one of the country's most violent cities.The poverty rate in Chiapas, already the most impoverished state in Mexico, has risen in recent years to more than three-quarters of the population.Mexico, with help from the United States, has increased patrols on its southern border and is deporting more Central American migrants trying to reach the United States.Thousands of people from neighboring Guatemala are believed to have crossed over the porous border of rivers and jungle in Chiapas for a chance to see the pope.On Tuesday, he will speak to youths in Morelia, the capital of Michoacan state, where warring drug gangs cook much of the methamphetamine smuggled into the United States.He will then travel to Ciudad Juarez, which borders the U.S. state of Texas, where he will pray for migrants and victims of violence.(Additional reporting by Adriana Barrera; Writing by Michael O'Boyle, David Alire Garcia and Simon Gardner; Editing by Kieran Murray, Alan Crosby and Dan Grebler)
