It’s just all over the place. I think my piece will do a better job methodically laying it all out.

Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."

I am talking about an early modern common law rule grounded in ideas of late medieval origin. You’re not telling me anything I do not know. You have contributed nothing to this conversation.

Coke’s own articulation only ever accounts for taken forts as an exception to the rule, not occupied territory, which makes both side in terms of general warfare tactics before that time and the fact nobody is conceding authority over territory like that.

No parent should ever send their child to Duke or Florida. It’s abuse.

We’re gonna need a bigger reconstruction.

It is an island nation. But I’m happy to block you if you’re gonna be annoying.

I really like JOTWELL and think it represents the best of our profession.

But we need a website just for beef. A place where academics do nothing but hold up bad work to be mocked and ridiculed. I would really love to read more Family Law or Contracts professors going at it. JOTWEHL? JOTWEDLL?

I mean, Evan. Have you considered whether a foreign flag was displayed in the hospital room? Have you? You just don’t know what you don’t know.

The only reason why this argument doesn’t make sense to Ilan is because he’s— again— shown himself to be wholly ignorant of basic history.

Medieval warfare in England was much more concerned with “Quelle surprise! We have taken your fort!” than some kind of roving foreign occupation of the shires.

When, O Catiline, do you mean to
cease abusing our patience? How
long is that madness of yours still to
mock us? When is there to be an end of that unbridled audacity of yours, swaggering about as it does now?

I’m growing very tired of his act.

This is why I’m adamant about calling every bad claim out and have been much more blunt to call him a fraud and a hack. Law professors distorting history for public consumption because they either don’t know it or have a political objective aren’t entitled to good faith, nor should we ignore it.

NEW: Four federal judges have formed a firewall against ICE in West Virginia — and say they’ll punish state and federal officials of they continue detaining people in ways they have ruled illegal and unconstitutional.

Take that, m'lord!

Again, contemplating how I was born in the wrong kingdom.

This is my bat signal.

Lubberwort means lazy and stupid.

That is the common law rule.

Lubberwort! Stupid and lazy.

Didn’t need one because you only needed to define alien!

I'm going to start using Elizabethan era insults in my everyday life.

But... the French pox. Now, now... proceed!

Love this decision from 1582.

Thou art burnt and have the pox!

No action lieth for he had the pox generally.

It’s irritating to see some law professors proclaim colleagues are doing work in good faith when they are patently full of hot air and devoid of expertise.

Jersey Occupation: 'My mother slept with the enemy' The true identity of Pauline Botting's father was hidden from her for years.
