It was a story about new health and wellness programs being offered in the court’s gym, including Zumba and yoga classes and access to the Peloton and Calm apps. The Calm app “provides users with a number of guided meditations” and there were also plans for a new “dedicated relaxation room” somewhere in the building.

Ever since President Biden first announced that he would unilaterally forgive roughly half a trillion dollars in student debt, many of us have noted that he lacked that authority under the Constitution.
