Bad at bios, good at takes. Lawyer. @utexaslaw ‘23 🤘 @Dartmouth '17. Opinions my own. He/him. RTs = endorsements except when they don’t.

@steve_vladeck Glad we spent a whole Fed Courts class on what it means for a court to be bound!

@baseballot They want to win in 2024 because they’re not all psychopaths. Plus there is no reasonable world they stand a chance if Trump wins and wrecks havoc on our democratic system

@jonfavs @TVietor08 Susan Rice taking Jello shots at the 2015 Christmas Party was a ~vibe~

The Case for Proactive Bar Sanctions, 102 @TexasLRev 1331 (2024), explains why we did not need to wait 3 and a half years for this inevitable result.

NEW: Rudy Giuliani, former NYC mayor and US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, has been disbarred.

Just so we’re clear here: chanting “resistance is justified” in front of the Nova Exhibition is an endorsement of the kidnapping, torture, and murder of unarmed Jews.

#HappeningNow Smoke bombs and flares set off outside of the Nova Exhibition, the October 7th Music Festival exhibit taking place on Wall Street in Lower Manhattan.

[Mark D. Levine @MarkLevineNYC]

The Nova Music Festival Exhibition is a moving, heart-wrenching remembrance of the Oct 7 massacre. It offers a message of tolerance and hope.

Tonight’s viscous targeting of the exhibition is not pro-peace. It is repulsive and vile. I condemn it in the strongest possible terms.

[Aviva Klompas @AvivaKlompas]

How utterly evil do you have to be to protest outside a site that memorializes the 1,200 victims of October 7?

[Sam Libby @SamcLibby]

Stewart is right, but lawyers like Giuliani and Powell who lie to the public can still be sanctioned for those lies under widely accepted disciplinary rules.

Go check out The Case for Proactive Bar Sanctions, 102 Texas L. Rev. 1331 (2024)! @TexasLRev

[The Daily Show @TheDailyShow]

Jon Stewart wants the media to stop the wild speculation and behave more like the courts: study the evidence and present a conclusion.

[Sam Libby @SamcLibby]

The Case for Proactive Bar Sanctions, 102 Texas L. Rev., discusses the imperative for state bars to act expeditiously against people who promote verifiable lies in court proceedings. Drops in 16 days! @TexasLRev

[Lauren McGaughy @lmcgaughy]

From his agency email, Texas AG Ken Paxton issues a press release in which 18 attorneys general note opposition to a suit against his top aide for his role in challenging the 2020 presidential election results.

The email includes a warning for the Texas Supreme Court. #txlege

It takes two to ceasefire

[Sam Libby @SamcLibby]

We cannot forget the hostages. Israel did not start this war, and return of the hostages must be a necessary condition for a lasting ceasefire. #BringThemAllHomeNOW

[Jacob N. Kornbluh @jacobkornbluh]

Rep. Goldman:

“I dare anyone anyone in my district, anyone throughout NYC or this country, to say that any ceasefire agreement should not include the release of the hostages, and if you agree with that..then you must recognize that Israel does not control a ceasefire agreement.”

[NYC Sanitation @NYCSanitation]

Bring out your trash bins, it's Opening Day & the @Yankees are playing the @Astros. 😉

Remember: use bins to keep rats away and NYC clean; DONT USE THEM TO CHEAT AT BASEBALL.

Hey @Mets, we'll see you tomorrow.

[Sam Libby @SamcLibby]

Great time to mark your calendars for the May 1 release of “The Case for Proactive Bar Sanctions,” 102 Texas L. Rev.

[Renato Mariotti @renato_mariotti]

It is remarkable that the former acting Attorney General is testifying about a senior DOJ official’s attempt to abuse his power to overturn the election.

It’s even more remarkable that this isn’t even considered front-page news anymore.

[Sam Libby @SamcLibby]

@thealexrigby CBS cut into March Madness for a breaking news alert. I thought we lived in America!

Kfir Bibas has been alive for 407 days.

He has been a hostage of Hamas for 147 of those.

@steve_vladeck @BobbyChesney @NSLpodcast Would love to hear more about the application of IHL in the context of the recent war in Israel and the flare up with the Houthis in the Red Sea
