I launched a Substack, "Law School Docket," a little while ago--currently, cross-posting some of my longer-form EOD posts on matters relating to legal education, if you're interested. Free, of course. derektmuller.substack.com

Lee trying to repeat the voter suppression playbook Trump ran in the 2020 Georgia runoff.

TAMU has climbed, then pulled in extraordinary laterals who buy the vision. The question is, why aren't more schools capable of doing this. (Yes, money is a factor, but it is hardly the decisive one.)

There are just 10 levers a school can pull for USNWR purposes. The question as to why a few can pull those levers effectively, & most schools express shock each year at where they land among the rankings, is a true exercise in management capability.

It is difficult to overstate what Texas A&M law has accomplished in just ten years. If this momentum can be continued, even in part and even for a short time, this school will tear apart the longstanding hierarchical order in the legal academy. That would be a good thing.

@ringwiss I think this assumes the process being performed right now is a "talking filibuster." Whatever Mike Lee is tweeting is obviously separated from the reality of the present legislative process.

I truly do not understand why the Senate is adjourning, rather than recessing. Even if the leadership doesn’t think forcing a talking filibuster will work, for now there is no downside to staying in the same legislative day and slightly limiting senators’ opportunities to speak.

Talking filibuster going well... No senator is seeking recognition, and the Senate is not in a quorum call, yet the chair is not putting the question on the pending amendment.

Related question: what are your favorite activities for families in Chicago? Already on my list: Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, Children's Museum, Navy Pier (weather permitting.) Maybe the planetarium? What else?

@NickRiccardi I try not to overdiscuss a thing pending for more than 20 years but there's an actual window now.

@derektmuller Lord I’d forgotten about that. Coalition shifts may make it a possibility in the long run now….

Like a jillion people are sharing this thing from 2014 that confirms their (and my!) priors but there's been developments since then that really ought to give one pause.

How might a machine recount pan out? For perspective, in the 2024 NC SupCo general election race (much higher turnout), Guilford County saw a 5-vote swing in favor of Riggs over Griffin. Rockingham Co. saw a 1-vote swing in favor of Riggs. Berger presently trails by 23. #ncpol
