[Empirical study of the impact of unpublished opinions on socially disadvantaged people.] As readers of this blog now know, I am opposed to the idea that courts can, by not publishing an opinion, render it of no weight as precedent in future cases. In my view, one of the substantial limits on federal judicial power is the fact that when judges issue an opinion, future judges are bound by that opinion as a matter of precedent even if they sympathize less with the parties in that future case. … [read post]

[She is scheduled on June 21st to hear oral argument on whether special counsel Jack Smith was unconstitutionally appointed] The liberal news media is full of false stories about how Judge Aileen Cannon of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida has delayed former President Donald Trump's trial unnecessarily for allegedly mishandling classified documents. But, in fact, the Biden Administration and its Attorney General, Merrick Garland, are themselves to blame for… [read post]

[Both President Biden and former Presidents Obama and Trump are partly to blame] Since I was a sophomore in Yale College, in 1976, I have studied the process by which democracies die and get turned into dictatorships. One of the key causes of the death of democracy is the criminalization of political disagreements.

[Could the race go on until the Convention?] Suppose that Nikki Haley loses to Donald Trump by 15% in New Hampshire and also loses her home state of South Carolina by a big margin.  Will she necessarily drop out of the race?  It seems unlikely. A number of states that will vote on Super Tuesday offer Haley much friendlier territory then do New Hampshire or South Carolina.  California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Vermont, and Virginia all vote on Tuesday, March 5th.… [read post]

[Noscitur a sociis.] Justice Antonin Scalia, one of the leading originalists and textualists of the modern era ended his career by publishing with Bryan A. Garner a 2012 treatise Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts.  In his treatise, Scalia urges lawyers to go back to using the canons of interpretation, which the legal realists sarcastically scorned.  As it happens, there is a canon of interpretation, which is very relevant to what the word "insurrection" means… [read post]

[Why an insurrectionist can run for and serve as President, but not as an Elector of the President] My initial view that Trump was covered by Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment was formed because I believed then, and do still now believe, that the events of January 6, 2021 were an "insurrection."  Daniel Webster's 1st edition of his Dictionary of American English, which had been published in 1828, and would have been authoritative to the Framers' of the Fourteenth… [read post]
