There was relatively little in terms of major developments in the last few weeks, though there were a fair amount of little things. Perhaps the most significant story was the Supreme court ruling that said inmates do not have a right to a painless death, a decision which sparked considerable controversy among the justices. Meanwhile, the Trump administration demonstrated that he did not understand wind power multiple times. Elsewhere, numerous lawsuits were brought against the administration, which will be sure to add to its already abysmal legal record.
