I would like to hear the story of how this came about. It sounds amazing!

Very interesting thread
they didnβt do it with CA, but are now toying with the idea that the constitution means βRepublicans get to gerrymander but Democrats canβtβ
One thing the Supreme Court could do is issue per curiam merits rulings on regular, scheduled ruling days at 10am instead of 6pm at night without any advance notice.
This thread on Alito's outrageously misrepresentation of the facts in the NY voting rights case is so damning. Alito's account was misleading to the point of falsity. And there's nothing anybody can do about it. He gets to toss around bogus claims without any consequence.

A disturbing and hypocritical ruling on so many levels. Especially the due process holding.
The court JUST said thereβs no deeply rooted right for women to control their own bodies. But there is a deeply rooted right for parents to know if their kids question their gender at school? Come on.
Rick Hasen on today: βto me the headline is the Justice Alito concurrence which states that race conscious districting as required not just by the federal Voting Rights Act but also state acts and state constitutions is βunadornedβ and βodiousβ racial discrimination.β electionlawblog.org?p=154596
This is very not good. Very very not good.
As I explain via the latest βOne First,β the only theme that unites the Supreme Courtβs (unrelated) grants of emergency relief Monday night in the California transgender student and New York redistricting cases is what might be called βselective judicial impatience.β
And thatβs *not* a good thing:
The DA in Minneapolis is investigating Bovino and others.
Seriously, it is easy to laugh now, but there was a real fear that this could collapse law firms. Clients and attorneys can leave at any time. No long-term contracts. No non-competes.
Jenner, Susman, Wilmer, and Perkins deserve so much credit, as do those that stepped in to defend.
Fighting back works. Please take notes university leaders.

"In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not."
THIS.
This was a premeditated attack with no conceivable emergency: the choice to do this is Congress not President. Waging war on Iran is an obvious violation of the Constitution, no different than enacting tariffs (raising taxes) or defunding USAID (spending programs).

Morning.
The fact that thereβs a secret network of doulas going around Minneapolis to help with home births for parents afraid of ICE should be front-page news.
These children, born in secrecy, are American citizens.
Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."
Hoping Dems add kids and their caretakers out of concentration camps to demands in DHS funding fight. Not only moral also strategic: keep kids in public eye, force Reps to visibly defend this, claim moral hi ground for their position.
This is pretty critical. If (as the administration claims) courts must defer to presidential assertions that an βemergencyβ exists, no matter how obviously false or pretextual, we have effectively rewritten βemergency powersβ statutes as permanent, unlimited delegations of legislative authority.
