Senator Schumer’s new op-ed defending the No Kings Act. He relies on Ex Parte McCardle as precedent. But as @Alan_Trammell and I explained in the @WSJ yesterday, that case and others show why this won’t work. Link replies.

NEW: My and @Alan_Trammell's op-ed in the @WSJ, explaining why Sen. Schumer's "No Kings Act" wouldn't work to overturn Trump v. US, even if it could get through Congress.

It draws on our @ColumLRev article, "The False Promise of Jurisdiction Stripping.

Congress may not violate the Constitution and then try to cover it up through jurisdiction stripping. This is exactly what Schumer’s No Kings Act tries to do, write @danepps and @Alan_Trammell

@edswaine @maggiewittlin @espinsegall Being in the HoF is great...but I have to find some way to fill my days.

Is this when I'm supposed to pick a Twitter fight with Elon? I'm treating this as a badge of honor!

The times demand a mass popular movement to protect fundamental liberties, write @danepps and @Alan_Trammell. Constitutional magic tricks can’t save us.

Response to the Board of Trustees' Name Change Decision

[Carliss Chatman @carlissc]

Imagine a board of trustees more afraid of being called woke than racist.

[Alan Trammell @Alan_Trammell]

Agreed that this is super weird. But the best values, by my lights, are John Paul Stevens and Harlan Fiske Stone at $4 apiece. (Notwithstanding his plodding writing style, Stone was arguably the greatest proceduralist on the Court in the first half of the twentieth century.)

[Alan Trammell @Alan_Trammell]

Few things in life make you question the supposed glories of federalism more than sitting in the DMV for an hour, waiting to re-title an out-of-state car.

[Alan Trammell @Alan_Trammell]

@alexnunn Woohoo!! Congrats, Alex!
