As a beautiful yet insecure man, all I can say is "Only photograph me from the right."

Only just recently have I begun to feel like a real law professor. Yet one thing stands in my way: I hate jazz.

In Russia’s Former Capital, Restoring the Past to Survive the Present

Russia is run by an autocratic madman who is surrounded by greedy sycophants. But tens of millions of Russians hate their government and find small ways to cope and improve their day-to-day situations.

St. Petersburg, BTW, is gorgeous and one of the most awe inspiring cities I've ever visited.

New SAVE Act Bills Would Still Block Millions of Americans From Voting The “show your papers” requirement is an attack on the freedom to vote.

On this International Women's Day, Senate Republicans are pushing for the SAVE Act, which the House already passed. The Act would disenfranchise millions of Americans, including millions of American women who changed their name after marrying. #WeTheMen

Today, I've cleaned out and reorganized a closet, scrubbed floors, done three loads of laundry, and I'm about to run errands. Not to brag, but I'm an excellent tradwife.

Thanks again to the Ga. St. Univ. L. Rev. for the opportunity to talk about the myriad health challenges our nation faces, particularly at the community level. The editors did a great job, and my fellow panelists were a delight.

Obviously, I looked incredible.

WATCH: 'I'm done,' Hillary Clinton says after learning Boebert posted photo of her at deposition YouTube video by PBS NewsHour

There are three women I NEVER want to infuriate:

1. Elena Kagan
2. Hillary Clinton
3. Mandy Moore - There's a reason my audio was cut from our duet version of "I Wanna Be With You."

In Atlanta where I've had the honor to speak at GSU'S School of Public Health Grand Rounds (thanks to @jalaynearias.bsky.social) and tomorrow I'll participate in GSU'S Law Review symposium (thanks to @amwhelan.bsky.social).

But perhaps the most exciting thing I'll do here: I'm going to a mall!
