The Supreme Court is returning to a new term to take up some familiar topics — guns and abortion — and concerns about ethics swirling around the justices.

The year also will have a heavy focus on social media and how free speech protections apply online. A big unknown is whether the court will be asked to weigh in on any aspect of the criminal cases against former President Donald Trump and others or efforts in some states to keep the Republican off the 2024 presidential ballot because of his role in trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election that he lost to Democrat Joe Biden.

Lower-profile but vitally important, several cases in the term that begins Monday ask the justices to constrict the power of regulatory agencies.

    Yes, you should get those too, not ignore gun control.

        Unhealthy, people with no access to mental health services, or adequate education, shouldn’t have access to guns even in a healthy society. If you had all those maybe you can be trusted with guns.

          No interest in negotiating my constitutionally protected rights for the hope we finally get the social services and labor protections we deserve.

            Then maybe you should start using that 2nd like you’re supposed to instead of using it to keep your emotional support weapons close.

              Now you’re thinking like a patriot.

                Rights are won with blood, not money. We spent our blood and bought our rights, still waiting for America to start spending blood instead of money.
