The dumbest people continue to try and destroy their states' higher education systems.

Oklahoma legislature advances bill that would remove tenure at OU, public universities The Oklahoma legislature advanced a bill Tuesday that would remove the possibility of tenure for OU faculty, limit contract agreements to five years and require each state institute for higher

Oklahoma Legislature demonstrates its hostility to education and academic freedom.

Tennessee Wants to Let Schools Ban Immigrant Kids, Threatening to “End Public Education as We Know It” A Tennessee bill would take the right to education away from undocumented children. The Heritage Foundation is pushing it in other states.

Somebody in your class is snitching to Trump, Guha. They're responsible for you losing your saffron. 😉

The @tamu.bsky.social Center on the Structural Constitution is excited to host Prof. Thomas W. Merrill (@columbiauniversity.bsky.social) for the 2nd Annual Century Tree Lecture on March 19. This is the Center's highest honor for a senior scholar. Open to the Texas A&M Law community!

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to present Equal Justice & Generative AI to @tulanelaw.bsky.social's faculty yesterday. Thank you to @maybell.bsky.social and company for the kind invitation and hospitality.

214. The Court's (Selective) Impatience is a Vice The only theme uniting Monday night's twin grants of emergency relief is the Republican appointees' willingness to upend long-settled limits on the Court's power when, but only when, they *want* to.

9/9: This may seem hypertechnical, but it underscores the broader point I made in "One First" about *both* of the Court's grants of emergency relief last night—that the Republican appointees' impatience is leading them to run over settled legal constraints to reach the merits in these cases.

Alan Dershowitz taught courses while (allegedly) engaging in sex crimes. Does that count? 🙃

He's also out of his depth on the Citizenship Clause. 😉

Don’t let anyone ever tell you that your vote doesn’t matter. With every precinct reporting, the most powerful Republican in North Carolina is going down by *two* votes at the moment.

People say the darnedest things. Talarico isn't Fetterman.

Supreme Court orders Dallas to "separate" certain votes Dallas and Williamson counties closed centralized voting centers, which had become a common practice, at the request of local Republicans.

Fury is quite good. I also enjoyed Borg vs. McEnroe. Shia is a crazy person, but he can act.

Having a row to yourself is the best.

This case is horrifying. The man had deferred action, was on a full path to a green card, is a college grad magna cum laude, and ICE arrested him randomly while looking for someone else:

“What do we do?” said one ICE officer, to which another replied “We’re going to take him with us anyway.”

a tiny light brown dachshund is being held up by a human who is out of frame. they are at a beautiful snowy mountain range that looks straight out of a Pinterest photo. the dachshund pup, Frankie, is wearing a full body puffer jacket that matches her light brown fur perfectly.

This is Frankie. She just got a fancy new puffer and thinks she’s better than everyone now. And she is correct. 13/10 (IG: frankielasaucisse)

That Iran would shutdown the Strait of Hormuz was the most foreseeable, obvious consequence of an attack that has been recognized by warplanners and foreign policy experts for at 40 years. And, yet, the Trump administration did not forsee or plan for it.

What do Thomas Jefferson’s drinking habits, stealing your spouse’s Ambien, and the date Heroin become illegal all have in common? They were all part of yesterday’s Second Amendment insanity at the Supreme Court: www.dorfonlaw.org/2026/03/guns...

Terrific essay by @bjeromy.bsky.social on Thomas's dissent in Learning Resources. www.yalejreg.com/nc/vesting-c...

This would be an absolutely insane and unprecedented use of 21 USC 355(e)'s "imminent hazard provision."

FDA's website indicates that this provision has only been used once, in 1977, for phenformin hydrochloride, a diabetes drug linked to lactic acidosis (which has a mortality rate of about 50%)

All those toys, and it's the shoe that he must have.

A minor league hockey team had a wiener dog race. Zero thoughts, just vibes and absolute chaos. A thing of beauty

We do schedule classes that early. And guess who is the lucky fella teaching at 8:30 AM in the fall? Thankfully, I am a morning person. (I am not a morning person.)

I guess nobody got the six-pack. 😉

The DOJ has absolutely the best attorneys.

Plus, you can just blame the AI when the professors who were assigned the 8:30 AM slots grumble.

I feel like we typically see these sorts of completely outraged opinions from federal judges a couple times a year across the whole country, maybe a little more often in last few years. Now, in cases stemming from Trump's immigration crackdown, judges are ringing the alarm bell several times a week.

Lemonade is disappointed. She said you're not getting a tip tonight due to the slow service. Rainbow Brite might tip you, but only out of obligation.

'UNIMAGINABLE CRUELTY': Judge Gary Brown, a Trump appointeee from NY, thrashes DHS' treatment of a man who came to the US at 9 as an abuse/neglect victim, has no criminal record and became a college grad.

I am glad to see Matthews v. Elderidge be cited the (re)detention of individuals who already been adjudicated under asylum or special status claims. These (re)detentions violate the 5th Amend; it has been insane to me DHS is arguing that actions taken by the Biden Administration have no weight.
