I mean this earnestly and without a whiff of sarcasm or exaggeration: There is a substantially—SUBSTANTIALLY—better originalist case for the US Army being unconstitutional than there is for birthright citizenship being unconstitutional. We should remember that during oral arguments tomorrow.

Just a note to say Ben Cohen of Ben and Jerry's was arrested in the Capitol yesterday for calling out the deliberate starvation of people in Gaza. This is how far we have fallen.

When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American. If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

Scanlon: The Gulf of Mexico was so named over 500 years ago. If we want to update that name to reflect our current culture, maybe we should call it the Sea of Emoluments—you know, the place where we can board the Ship of Fools and navigate from a State of Ignorance to the Confederacy of Dunces…

Today would be a great day for Chuck Schumer to announce he’s stepping aside as Senate Minority Leader and isn’t going to run for reelection when his term ends. Agree?

The Democratic Party’s Charter puts it best: “a party which asks for the people's trust must prove that it trusts the people.” @kenmartin.bsky.social is exactly right. It’s a conflict of interest for party leadership to prop up some candidates at the expense of others. time.com/7280045/vote...

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

I really hate all the legal eagles that come out to defend predatory age gaps. “The age of consent is….” Let me stop you right there, age of consent is supposed to be for protection for sex among minors or their peers. Though I would argue 18 yo seniors have no business with 14yo freshman

So the Trump admin has ICE accessing personal info from other systems to go after undocumented immigrants, and we’re supposed to believe that the government’s creepy texts to Columbia/Barnard staff’s private numbers asking if they are Jewish is only to ensure their safety and well-being?
