Democratic Party has to be a big tent until the left starts winning primaries

Trump’s desire *not* to ever legislate is quite striking.

Oh please

If you’re a fan of both Phineas and Ferb and High School musical, I’d like you to know that the same actor voices Candace as plays Sharpay.

I’ve drafted a whole article on this and he just… skeeted it out.

A world to win

Today, Amy Kapczynski (@akapczynski.bsky.social) takes on two ideas that have been making the rounds in law and economics circles: that LPE is anti-empirical, and that contemporary L&E has shed its earlier normative commitments. A must-read for anyone following the L&E vs. LPE debate🔥

No ❤️

Spoke last week to Law360 about California's proposal to require insurers to do long-term (ie out to 2050) assessment of solvency risks. With the federal government being what it is, this is kind of the only climate finreg game in town

So the talks up there… already in difficulty

Loving the toxic cloud of incinerated styrofoam over east LA today!

Reverse colonization of the system by the lifeworld

Does the VP always fly in a wee plane or is this a special humiliation for our precious boy?

First the pants got big and now they are pleated

Should I get pleated pants now, or will I regret it?

Re: “operational efficiency,” even a cold cost-benefit calculus, disregarding morality and law, would put the monetized cost of killing 100 kids at $1.3 billion.

Maggie Haberman’s new book reports that Trump drenched himself in the blood of children in October of 2024.

I hope someone’s making money on the oil futures market being a bunch of complete suckers, at least.

This is incoherent.

A nanobubbler for every American!

Important piece in our forthcoming volume, “Building Democratic Capacity: Essays on Administrative Law’s Futures” (Cambridge)

One of the reasons we have “red tape” is so that we don’t throw away money on bs like this. A lesson not only for Trump but also for abundocrats

Looking back, Giles was kind of a role model for the tweedy academic I aspired to. I need to pivot from public law to slayer-watching soon.

Detention center to data center pipeline?

This is the text of the agreement.

Publication announcement! David Singh Grewal, Sanjay Reddy, and I have a new piece out in the Stanford Law & Policy Review. We examine how under the pressure of admin law, the CPI went from a measure promoting "decency and health" to an apolitical measure. law.stanford.edu/publications...

It’s that magical time in June when we find out how much the Supreme Court wants to unilaterally alter the constitutional order this calendar year.

Vance is such an effective communicator because he can be both condescending and generally dim at the same time.

Just a reminder that all those LLMs are built on the pilfered vast libraries of humanistic and social scientific knowledge production. Good luck, society. You’re gonna need it. www.hpherald.com/evening_dige...

Where all the best treaties have been signed!

Lots to say about the analysis here but I definitely do not follow this part balkin.blogspot.com/2026/06/why-...

Victory!

Seems like this should be about as complex as hitting “send.”

After afternoon tantrum, parents soothe angry toddler.

When you’re trying to drum up charges to undermine the first amendment without lifting a finger to charge the federal officers who killed two people.

For the Federal Register nerds out there (you know who you are), I want to flag a great new resource that Andrew Leahey has put together to track developments in the register. He has a monthly report on Notice & Comment that provides helpful snapshots of activity: www.yalejreg.com/nc/recent-ru...

Lots of military aircraft crashing today

This was like Trump Admin’s argument in the tariffs case. Two peas in a pod!

Glad we’re finding out about this a year later so that Haberman and Swan can sell books.

Interesting art choice for this article

Nothing says freedom like two idiots beating each other up on taxpayer dollars.

As far as I can tell, it’s just another “cease-fire” with no agreement on actual terms? OK

At this point the government Pakistan is a much more reliable reporter than the US w/r/t the Iran conflict

I genuinely don’t understand the difference between “efficiency” and “abundance” in this Ezra Klein op Ed. Like, someone who didn’t care as much about animals as Klein could write an article saying, “all this terrible red tape in California is making our bacon too costly.”

I’m glad pants are bigger but I fear they have gotten too big

We used to be a proper country

“Mobocratic rule” www.abrahamlincolnonline.org/lincoln/spee...

Democracy Protection Act of 2029 should provide for: 1) a suit of election protections such as ban on partisan gerrymander 2) a provision to add 2 new seats to the Court every 2 years for a decade

Congrats to the white supremacist who is personally responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.

My 7 year old is now saying “bet” routinely.
