Yesterday, I posted a description of (and link to, to prevent @kenwhite.bsky.social from getting stabby) Justice William G. Young's remarkable ruling in the case regarding the US maladministration's efforts to curb-stomp the first amendment, at least as it applies to non-citizens.

If you didn't want to read it, or even the final dozen pages that are so worthwhile, Chris Geidner ("Law Dork") has a post about it today which I couldn't improve upon if I tried. Do read that.

In any case, Judge Young, a spry 85 years young, is hitting three times as hard as the New York Times, CNN, and the Washington Post combined - with one hand tied behind his back, because he has to observe the necessities of writing while in his post within the judicial branch. He has earned a place in the honour rolls with this ruling, if he hadn't already done so before.

#Death by Suffucation

If this isn't cruel and unusual punishment, I'm not sure what is!

Reprehensible #SCOTUS conservatives allow Alabama to try and suffocate Kenneth Smith to death.

The three liberal justices would have granted him a stay of execution in connection with his challenge to the state's untested nitrogen gas execution protocol.

In her dissent, Justice Sonia #Sotomayor laid out the hard facts of Thursday night (see photo)

"’What do you want me to say about slavery?’ should be the end of #NikkiHaley's political career.” - #ChrisGeidner #LawDork

That was her only mention of slavery while answering a question about the cause of the civil war at a forum in SC.

“In these and other cases, out of the #FifthCircuit and elsewhere, the #SupremeCourt will have to decide — in matter after matter — whether it is a court of law or a court of far-right ideological politics.”

If you’re not reading #ChrisGeidner, you’re missing good legal writing for the layperson
