    Are public schools unconstitutional? A Nebraska court will decide.

    Fifth circuit, first circuit..potato, potato, or as the kids say 6,7. (Or in the case of Nebraska…8?)

    F*ck Trump... Impeach John Roberts

    To be clear, the courts order dealt with the eo not the rule. I don’t have much doubt that the rule should create standing if it obligates the state. At the least it’s an interest as great as the exwcutive branch’s.

    F*ck Trump... Impeach John Roberts

    Again, while I don't actually think Roberts wrote this, I think you're directionally right in some respects but overstating things in calling him a radical. 1. You are absolutely correct that Roberts has been more at the tip of the spear when it comes to equal protection jurisprudence, stemming...

    Dolly Parton Died

    Really big loss of a first class human being. There are a few of her own songs that I like - I think her version of Rocky Top is probably as fun as any - but where I've really gained an appreciation for her musically is hearing her do backup harmonies on bluegrass and bluegrass-adjacent...

    Are public schools unconstitutional? A Nebraska court will decide.

    Sounds like a loser to me. I gotta say, we're really reaping the "nonprofit legal advocacy organization" seeds that were sown during the 1960s and 1970s. In cases like this, the lawyer is the client.

    F*ck Trump... Impeach John Roberts

    Yep. While I don’t know the details of the usps rule, the states will have a strong opening position. The constitution talks about the states and the congress as first and second in line (or at least 1a and 1b) so it seems to me that the usps rule is going to have to be grounded in some...

    F*ck Trump... Impeach John Roberts

    While the court recognized states’ constitutional authority to set the rules of elections absent congressional enactments, it essentially ruled that the eo didn’t actually force the states to do or not do anything … yet … as it just directed federal agencies to explore various things, and thus...

    F*ck Trump... Impeach John Roberts

    While I think that’s overstating things a bit re the usps aspects of the case, I think the fundamental tension/discomfort here is how on the one hand the court is quite willing to recognize the “generalized” interest of the executive to develop policies in federal agencies for purposes of the...

    who's dropping kids off at college for the first time this year?

    Dude. I’m walking the dogs. I walk them once to the south In The neighborhood, and once to the north in the town/campus/post each day, regardless of whether anything is in session. go back to sleep bickering with imaginary enemies.

    who's dropping kids off at college for the first time this year?

    I’m through all that but took the doggos for a walk today thru w and l campus. It was sort of funny watching small groups of them play the socially awkward “meet your floor mates” games outside.

    Should/Will Trump Declare a National Emergency to "Protect" Our Election?

    Actually, if you read the opinion, it is based solely on standing on ripeness grounds, and emphasizes quite strongly that the eo doesn’t actually require anything of the states. I’m of mixed feelings on this. On the one hand, this sort of correct that as a general matter, the nature of an eo...

    What’s your go to show stopper dish for company?

    Nice! If I'm doing non-deep dish, I make them on the stone in the oven in the winter, and in the wood-fired that my kids got me last christmas in the summer. On the stone, another thing I like to do is let the dough inflate from the air bubbles like a UFO, until it is cooked enough to hold...
