JOB ALERT: Come work with me! The MDefenders program @UMichLaw is hiring an assistant program director to help grow and expand our innovative programming to support public defense. Details here: careers.umich.edu/job_detail/247…. Please help me spread the word.
I've just watched the livestream of the funeral of Nancy Neviloff Dubler, who passed away peacefully yesterday. Nancy was a giant in the field of bioethics, a powerful force for social justice, and as fine a human being as anyone could hope to know. z"l
At the rental-car counter at the Richmond VA airport (enroute to conference at William & Mary). Customer a few ahead of me in heated conversation with desk agent (both white) about “race.” I wondered what it was about. Then one of them said “NASCAR.” Ah.
🚨 🚨 Take the Blinders Off A 🧵 Every year or so—often after a high-profile election—come the same columns I’ve read for years: “What’s Happened To Ohio?” or “What’s Wrong With Ohio?” or “Why Is Ohio No Longer a Bellwether State?” 1/
Cultural reference check: If I say "As Frog and Toad knew, a list of Things I Need to do Today is unlikely to mention *everything* I need to do today," do you know the story to which I am referring? (Thanks for your help.)
Hiring Ronna McDaniel is a terrible decision. Having a range of views is useful. But hiring a proven serial liar is disastrous. NBC is and must be, first and foremost, in the credibility business. She will compromise that every time she appears on air. She cannot be trusted.

For some reason, the line that keeps repeating itself in my brain today is from John Hart Ely: it is not constitutional law, and it gives almost no sense of an obligation to try to be.
Strong post.
Exactly. It makes sense on a practical level. But the point should have been made to the Thirty-Ninth Congress, which chose a different approach.

Here's the point on which I'm focused at the moment: A man who inspired and celebrates a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol will be a presidential candidate, and lots of people plan to vote for him.

I think the skeleton key to every elite campus controversy is that the classes are too easy and the students aren’t doing enough homework.
@ZacharyBraiterm @Columbia I criticize some of the slogans pretty regularly. Did so in my recent NYT piece. When I speak I often urge students not to make "Zionism" a litmus test, since it means different things to different people + instead ask whether people support legal equality between Palestinians +…
I chose Columbia Law School mostly because I wanted to study with Raz and Waldron which I was fortunate to do. I also chose it, though, because there were so many observant Jewish students and faculty I thought a priest/believer would be especially comfortable there and so I was.

@SnarkedUpLawyer everything else reasonable people can talk about but show me your bona fides at the start of the conversation. if the upshot is a bizarrely inaccurate racial theory of colonialism explains why kibbutzim are fair game for death squads, miss me with your ish 5/5
@SnarkedUpLawyer it shd not be an unrealistic lift to say Oct 7 was an atrocity beyond imagining, not an exhilarating act of resistance; or that swastikas at a synagogue traffick monstrously in the violence of historical memory; or that Israel having a right to exist is be table stakes 4/
ok going out on an extremely-safe-for-your-Xian-twitter-pal limb to say this: if Jewish colleagues who you have known to be not-crazy in a variety of professional contexts tell you that some of where The Discourse sits leaves them viscerally uneasy, maybe it is worth listening
🚨 Today, a federal court ruled our case alleging VA is illegally disenfranchising citizens w/felony convictions can proceed. Defendants previously filed a motion to dismiss, seeking to deny our clients their day in court. 🔗 protdem.org/3ToopQx
Thinking about this from @wrdcsc in light of Trump yesterday calling some border crossers “not people”
As a Jewish liberal lawyer, I wouldn’t have predicted that one of my favorite tweets about our situation would be written by a conservative Catholic priest (even though he also has a law degree!). Because @wrdcsc’s tweets eventually autodelete, I was lucky to screenshot this.
it’s getting hard to see a path for Nikki Haley to the GOP nomination
To say I am proud of @LMortensonMD would rather understate the matter. It's been a remarkable privilege to have a front row seat to the process of hope becoming vision becoming reality—and making our corner of the world a better place. record.umich.edu/articles/caps-…
Exactly. It makes sense on a practical level. But the point should have been made to the Thirty-Ninth Congress, which chose a different approach.
The basic substance of the 14/3 decision—uniform federal process for disqualification in a POTUS election—is reasonable as a matter of constitutional design. It just doesn’t follow from any theory of const’l interp or judicial role that this Court is willing to endorse.
It cannot be said enough: The Court and the entire legal system are under tremendous pressure because we elected a man fundamentally unfit for the presidency.
