Several notable 4th Amendment rulings in this 5th Circuit opinion today. Most importantly: People have a reasonable expectation of privacy in stored online contents—here, the contents of a Dropbox account. (Per Oldham, J., w/Richman & Ramirez)

Mr. Poilievre's "three strikes" law is for 10 year mandatory incarceration followed by indeterminate imprisonment.

This is patently unconstitutional. In addition to being a failed U.S. policy.

This is a short must-watch where Mark Carney’s stellar business credentials are laid bare in an honest way. @amandaalvaro deftly lays the smack down as usual.

A beautiful piece by Cathy Schaffter about why we must save Old City Hall, create a Museum of Toronto, and open it up to the public. https://t.co/PSAxszqdiD

Thinking a lot lately about Justice (Robert) Jackson's dissenting opinion in Mezei, especially its discussion of the importance of due process even (if not especially) for those the government claims are "dangerous":

Jeffries: Diversity, equity and inclusion are American values. Perhaps I can explain. The motto of the United States of America is e pluribus unum. Out of many, one. That’s diversity. The 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution—one of the most influential important amendments in our country—provides equal protection under the law. That’s equity. In this country, we pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. A flag that we just presented to the new President and Vice President. And in that pledge, we promise, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. A-L-L. That’s inclusion. Not complicated. Diversity, equity and inclusion are American values. It’s about economic opportunity. It’s about merit for everyone, based on what you know, not who you know.
