This beautiful tribute to Dick Fallon brought tears to my eyes. Thanks, @dorfonlaw.bsky.social, for capturing Dick's humility, brilliance, and so many scholarly virtues. Like so many of his students, my daughter feels inexpressibly grateful to have studied with him.

Here's a witty and apt post by @athenais.bsky.social on why a tradwife appeal to "the princess treatment" by her husband misunderstand princesses, their treatment, and their power! open.substack.com/pub/allisont...

Important insights by historian Steven Hahn in this @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social episode about a long history of "illiberalism" in the US -- similar to pol scientist Rogers Smith on the different strands of the American tradition: Trumpism www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/o...

Here is my review of Prof. Elizabeth Sepper's informative argument about why religious liberty challenges to state abortion bans should succeed in SCOTUS, but likely won't, but may fare better in state courts.

Agreed. I continued my way through Season 3 of Somebody Somewhere.

Trump has turned us into a predator nation in the world’s eyes.

A piece of good news about US AID. I wonder if Musk will call for impeaching the two conservative SCOTUS justices-- C.J. Roberts and J. Amy Coney Barrett -- who joined the liberals on this ruling?: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03...

Lots of great insights in this discussion, including the link between "strongman politics" and devaluing/destroying the role of government as doing good things in people's lives: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/03/o...

DOGE is not a real department. In order to be a real department, DOGE would have to be approved by Congress. Pass it on.

"Notably missing [from Trump's 2025 proclamation about Black History Month] was a more somber mention of the 'incredible prejudice and hardship' that African Americans have faced, like the one Mr. Trump included in his 2020 proclamation." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

The White House 1/29/25 executive order, Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schools, re-establishes President Trump's 1776 Commission to promote "patriotic education." Here's my critique of the Commission's 1776 Report (Jan. 2020) as partisan & divisive: scholarship.law.bu.edu/faculty_scho...
