NY court says voting is limited to citizens

 Federalist Wire:

...

The New York State Court of Appeals ruled on Thursday that a New York City law permitting noncitizens to vote in local elections violates the state constitution. The ruling, backed by all but one of the court’s seven judges, affirms what many have long argued: voting is a right reserved exclusively for U.S. citizens. This outcome aligns with widespread public opinion that noncitizen voting has no place in American elections, and the court’s stance here is a clear win for that view.

The case stemmed from a lawsuit challenging a 2022 New York City law that would have allowed roughly 800,000 noncitizens—specifically lawful permanent residents or those authorized to work in the U.S.—to cast ballots in local elections. The measure, passed by the New York City Council in 2021, sparked immediate controversy and legal action, halting its implementation almost as soon as it took effect.
...

That should be the case nationwide.  It is one of the primary benefits of citizenship.

Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
