@ugaschooloflaw.bsky.social Professor Emerita @dianemarieamann.bsky.social recently presented “Impressions of Nuremberg 80 Years On – Impresiones de Núremberg 80 años después” at Museo Memoria y Tolerancia in Mexico City, Mexico. (1/3)

Thinking about the past few years… who remembers the Women, Peace and Security agenda? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

On the anniversary of Bloody Sunday i can’t help but reflect on how we are beholden to a bicameral parliament based in London, with NI reps a tiny minority, and hoping they’ll take out some of the most egregious clauses as they continue to impose a legacy bill. www.rte.ie/news/ulster/...

A bill passed on Thursday by the California Senate would require lawyers in the state to verify the accuracy of all materials produced using artificial intelligence, including case citations and other information in court filings.

9th Cir. holds that Sec. Noem had no statutory authority to vacate TPS designations for Venezuela and Haiti. Judge Mendoza, concurring, would additionally hold Noem's action also violated the APA given Noem's explicitly racist comments in vacating TPS. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/op...

I don't even know where to start with the illegal...The Executive does not have the constitutional power to raise revenue. The Executive does not have the constitutional power to make decisions about expenditures. The Executive does not have the power to privatize the functions of the US Treasury...

Political scientists see non-violent resistance as much more effective--and it's not just from aggregate statistics. Rather, it's the way that peaceful resistance undermines the state's repressive capacities. This op-ed by Berkeley prof @owasow.bsky.social explains this logic 🎯. Give it a read!

Standing with 65 of my UMN Law colleagues (and counting) to condemn ICE’s lawless conduct towards Minnesotans: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Alex and tens of thousands of Minnesotans have boldly defended their neighbors against the murderous occupation of an American city by the federal government. I am enraged and heartbroken for Alex, his family, Minneapolis, and America.

This is excellent

4 years ago, I wrote a post on @justsecurity.org & @Verfassungsblog.de on recognizing soldiers who refuse to participate in aggressive war as refugees www.justsecurity.org/80419/the-le... verfassungsblog.de/the-legal-ob... French practice: www.lemonde.fr/en/france/ar... amp.dw.com/en/fleeing-u...

Couple random points I fear getting lost: 1. Denmark likely believes it cannot legally sell Greenland at all b/c of international law re self-determination that didn't exist 100 yrs ago. 2. What does long-term US military power look like when its forces are no longer welcome in European bases?:

There is a reason that I love being Irish. We stand for principled, unwavering commitment to the UN Charter, & , we don’t mince our words. We understand colonial occupation & unwanted use of force in a way few other nations in the western hemisphere do.We are for territorial integrity & sovereignty.

And as to that determination: ☘️ "Respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of States is nonnegotiable. It is a fundamental principle of the United Nations Charter and of international law." ☘️

Thank you! This @ajil.bsky.social article owes much to welcoming colleagues at @exeter.ox.ac.uk and @bonavero.bsky.social @oxfordlawfac.bsky.social, my Fall24 intellectual home

But my neighbors are appalled and so many are stepping up. Fear does not work so well in the North Star state. We survive Arctic winters every year, we will survive ICE.

This was an intense hearing. Judge Young, an 85-year-old Reagan appointee who has served on the federal bench for 47 years, didn't mince words. He closed the hearing by reading from Lincoln's address at Gettysburg. Some of the people in the courtroom were in tears. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/u...

must-read for those following #ICJ #Gambia #Myanmar

Facts so harrowing to listen to. Much said about harms to #children -- stressed, one expects, b/c interveners' (correct) listing of such harms as an indicator of #genocide #intent; see para. 67 et seq., Joint Decla Canada-Denmark-France-Germany-Netherlands-UK www.icj-cij.org/sites/defaul...

Congratulations, Beth — love the Marty Supreme yellow book+yellow sweater vibe

Brilliant piece by a brilliant graduate student. Fantastic writing, Abinash. www.theindiaforum.in/culture/seei...

The International Court of Justice will open public hearings in the genocide case brought by the Gambia against Myanmar next week. Here is the first of what I hope will be a series of analytical pieces on some technical legal issues which the Court may wish to address.

"The military operation ... runs counter to the principle of non-use of force" "The proliferation of violations of the [UN] Charter ... by States vested with responsibility as permanent members of the Security Council chips away at the very foundation of the international order"

Great thread by Schona on state and I/O statements re VZ / US

Spotted today on the Underground: a poem for our times.

Ní Aoláin, said she was “most profoundly concerned by the mass indefinite arbitrary detention of children ... premised on the alleged threat they pose to security and based on their – or their parents – alleged prior links to [IS].” www.irishtimes.com/world/middle...

Many middle power countries "gain from international stability and the observance of the rule of law and long-established norms, and see great power overreach as disruptive and threatening to an orderly system in which they can plan and thrive," writes global governance expert Esther Brimmer.

Worth noting too the woman who inspired Moneypenny also focused on weightier stuff than shiny baubles

@ugaschooloflaw.bsky.social Professor @dianemarieamann.bsky.social discussed her research on child-taking at a side event occurring during the 24th annual Assembly of States Parties of the International Criminal Court, held in early December at The Hague in The Netherlands. (1/3)

Meet the masterminds behind a criminal conspiracy that solicited over 100,000 women. These men built an empire on women's pain—cold-calling victims, terrifying them about their pelvic mesh, then steering them to unnecessary surgeries they couldn't afford. #TrueCrime #MassTorts
