Olivier Sylvain is a professor at Fordham Law School and the author of a new book titled Reclaiming the Internet: How Big Tech Took Control—and How We Can Take It Back, published by Columbia Global Reports. I interviewed him at Book Culture, a bookstore on 112th Street in New York City.

Sad, then, that a central function of the con law industrial complex is precisely to reduce the number of players to few more than this. That is why we must undermine its legitimacy first and foremost.

thx, jeff! full article is here for those interested... www.nytimes.com/2026/03/27/o...

As respectfully as I can manage, addressing a scholar to whom I am indebted in countless respects: I strongly disagree. The conduct and scholarship of those who challenged the conventional and correct account of the citizenship clause was and is not good and I hope it doesn’t prove disastrous.

Congrats @quinnslobodian.com www.nytimes.com/2026/03/26/b...

Very sorry to Jed-he is absolutely right on this social media point, and the piece should not have implied otherwise.

Today, @samuelmoyn.bsky.social co-signs @beaubaumann.bsky.social's call for legislative supremacy. He wonders, however, whether liberals and progressives will be able to resist the siren song of juristocracy and presidentialism.

Today, @beaubaumann.bsky.social argues that the Left must recover the lost art of constitutional politics. It's time to dismantle both juristocracy and the modern managerial presidency, and to revive legislative supremacy.

Habermas to Stanislav Aseyev: “Ich müsste face to face mit ihm reden. . .” I regret very much that Habermas has departed before this conversation could happen. @stanislavaseyev.bsky.social @samuelmoyn.bsky.social

He was a hero. His global philosophical legacy was to accede to the end of history, in various ways, with consequences that critical theory has not recovered from, and which also also affected and reflected liberal political and constitutional thought, to its detriment. apnews.com/article/juer...
