Steve Vladeck @stevevladeck.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Justice Alito devotes an entire chapter of his new book to the emergency docket—and to responding to people like me (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”). As I explain over at “One First,” it … didn’t go well: www.stevevladeck.com/p/256-so-une...
In the pre-publication galleys to his new book, So Ordered: An Originalist’s View of the Constitution, the Court, and Our Country, Justice Alito spelled my last name inconsistently. This is, I suspect, the pettiest possible point on which to open in discussing a Supreme Court justice’s new memoir, and I would never have mentioned it except for the fact that inconsistency turns out to be the organizing feature of the chapter in which I (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”) repeatedly appear.The central inconsistency of Chapter 8, which is devoted to the emergency docket, is structural: Rather than tackle the subject holistically (as one might expect in a book), Alito mashed together the speech he gave five years ago at Notre Dame Law School with a “postscript.” The former was deeply flawed even at the time (among lots of other things, Alito repeatedly insisted that there was “nothing new” about the Court’s behavior on emergency applications during the first Trump administration and COVID); and the latter tries to move the goalposts away from the specific phenomena to which critics like me have actually objected.The result is to leave readers with a disjointed, inaccurate, and misleading sense of what the debate is even about—to say nothing of how the Court’s own behavior since September 2021 (including Alito’s) has only further undermined the already-flawed claims Alito made back then. Somewhere between the galleys of Alito’s book and the final product (which hits bookstores today), someone apparently figured out that my last name should be spelled the same way (and correctly!) throughout. The other, more significant inconsistencies were, apparently, harder to fix.

⚡️ Russian authorities are quietly expanding emergency measures in Siberia while attempting to downplay a suspected pneumonic plague outbreak. Public warnings have vanished and officials are avoiding naming the disease after a 28-year-old laboratory worker died from a reported test-tube accident.

Today marks the Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Babyn Yar—one of last century’s most painful tragedies. In 1941, the Nazi regime began mass executions of civilians in Kyiv, murdering over 100,000 Jews, Ukrainians, and Roma. Never forget this heinous crime so that new ones don’t happen🕯️🧵

Allegedly that ad is illegal because it's state-funded propaganda inside the US and there are laws for not spending money on state propaganda inside America. It's also a sort of campaign ad for Trump and those have to be paid for by a committee outside of the government.

According to Budanov, Kremlin's current behavior repeats a well-known historical scenario: the lack of a decisive response only encourages the aggressor to move further. Moscow's rhetoric is becoming more aggressive, and its threats are already going beyond the borders of Ukraine.

Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor. Donors make huge profits while workers get shafted. Repeat. This is not a coincidence. It's a political-economic system that's been corrupted by design.

Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @mayor.nyc.gov · 24/09/2026
New Yorkers, here’s what you need to know about this week’s nor’easter: 

The storm is expected to pass offshore, keeping the heaviest rain east of New York City. But we should still prepare for gusty winds, rain, and some high-tide flooding beginning today, peaking Friday, and potentially continuing through Sunday.

If you live near the coast, move your car to higher ground or away from streets that regularly flood.

Secure loose outdoor items, including furniture and garbage containers, that could be picked up by strong winds.
Storm tracks can change, so please stay informed and be prepared.

For emergency alerts, text NOTIFYNYC to 692-692.
