The rule of law is under attack. For those who may be interested, here's my speech to the ABA Litigation Section on how to think about and respond to it. Complete with help from my friend Will Shakespeare and a pep talk at the end. www.americanbar.org/groups/litig...

“Denationalization … is the total destruction of the individual's status in organized society. It is a form of punishment more primitive than torture.” “We believe [it] is offensive to cardinal principles for which the Constitution stands.” - Trop v Dulles (1958) (plurality)

NIH scientists have a cancer breakthrough. Layoffs are delaying it.
A big step forward in cancer therapy has been slowed by layoffs and new restrictions at the National Institutes of Health, where it was developed.

Len Niehoff: To crown a king, kill the law
We do not want a king. We understand our nation’s historical relationship with kings: Been there. Done that. Had a revolution to get over it.

“Suppressing the Gaetz report would conflict with the committee’s tradition of releasing findings even after lawmakers resign, when doing so is in the public interest. This is clearly one of those times.” www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Opinion | The Gaetz report remains secret. Precedent suggests it shouldn’t be.
The Ethics Committee’s failure is not the final word on the probe into the attorney general nominee.

Two years ago I wrote a short opinion piece explaining why #bookbanning is a pointless and stupid idea. Alas, it remains relevant. #freespeech #firstamendment www.freep.com/story/opinio...

Opinion: Banning books is an exercise in futility
The crusade to ban an instrumental composition for its explicit lyrics -- there were none --illustrates the stupidity and futility of censorship.

No American president has ever used his Article II power to force Congress to go into recess for the purpose of circumventing the Senate’s obligation to provide “advice and consent” regarding presidential nominations. Doing so would violate the Constitution’s basic structure of checks and balances.

Martial artists spend a lot of time considering their strengths and weaknesses; and so must litigators.
