Tom Malinowski’s pandemic profiteer stock scandal took a turn for the ugly last week, Save Jerseyans, and according to NJ Globe’s David Wildstein, it may’ve sealed his fate. Not with the voters (although that could also be true – time would tell), but specifically with the Democrat insiders who control the upcoming redistricting process.
“I’d rather dump all the Republicans into one district and let Kean win in a landslide,” Wildstein quotes one Democrat insider saying. “Then we don’t have to worry about Mikie [Sherrill]. Then we wouldn’t need to worry about [Josh] Gottheimer.”

Stupid, awful, corrupt behavior made worse by the fact that at least $1 million of his trades pertained to pandemic-related products and services.

Women s health care advocates are ramping up pressure on New Jersey lawmakers to advance a bill expanding access to abortion in the state, saying the U.S. Supreme Court s decision this week to take up a challenge to Roe v. Wade adds urgency to put a law in place.
But leaders in the legislature are in no hurry to move a bill, called the Reproductive Freedom Act, until after the November election when all 120 seats in the Senate and Assembly are on the ballot, according to two legislative sources.
While it might seem like a slam-dunk in the liberal Garden State to enact a law guaranteeing access to abortion, the Legislature has never passed a law legalizing it. Instead, New Jersey court decisions have said women can obtain abortions here.
