Had the honor (and challenge!) of delivering Columbia's Class Day address this year, amid everything. Decided to get very real. Here's what I said, including a painful admission, in case it speaks to you or (especially) any of the young people in your lives. www.youtube.com/watch?v=njFY...

Revealing comments, showing a vein of anger at SCOTUS from gov't employees who have obeyed *strict* ethics rules ("I cannot give my VA manager a homemade DIY lip balm costing $0.73 cents.")

In private meetings and memos, the justices made new rules for themselves — then split on whether they could, or should, be enforced.

Curious: did anyone find themselves shifting views about enforcement, or feeling torn, after reading this article? www.nytimes.com/2024/12/03/u...

"As a law student, it is striking how many of my peers - across the political spectrum - call for abolishing the Supreme Court." Fascinated by this reader comment on our story. If you're connected with a law school, have you heard similar discussion? www.nytimes.com/2024/12/03/u...

Just published: Who judges the justices? Inside the Supreme Court's ethics debate-- and the justices' split over whether their new rules ever could, or should, be enforced. @abbievansickle.bsky.social and I would love to hear what you make of this.

Some reflections on my disheartening exchange with Judge Jones at last Thursday's Federalist Society convention—and its ominous implications for the future of legal debate

If you're interested in law, the courts or just the question of how liberals and conservatives can have serious dialogues, this is very worth reading.

Today's "One First" offers some reflections on my exchange with Judge Jones at last Thursday's Federalist Society convention—and what it says about our discourse; left-of-center profs continuing to participate in Fed Soc events; and the future of legal debate:

One of the most eye-opening articles I've read since the election, by Emma Green of @newyorker.com.web.brid.gy, about "realignment Republicans" pushing for family-centric policies. Fascinating q's about what they envision and how much support-- including from Trump-- they will get.

How Roberts Shaped Trump’s Supreme Court Winning Streak

Jodi Kantor @jodikantor.bsky.social · Nov 18

Last term’s Trump cases– especially the decision to grant him such sweeping immunity– raised a ton of questions about what really happened among the justices. Recently, @adamliptak.bsky.social and I were able to provide some answers.

Behind the scenes, the chief justice molded three momentous Jan. 6 and election cases that helped determine the former president’s fate.

Last May, I broke the Alito flag stories. Please read the third one in particular, because you’ll see that Justice Alito’s explanation, about a neighbor provoking his wife with a terrible insult, doesn’t quite line up time wise. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/28/u...

Inside the escalating conflict on a bucolic suburban street that Justice Alito said prompted a “Stop the Steal” symbol at his home.

Those records were secret, and that discovery took a lot of digging. But it shows that we should not see the justices as flat caricatures. As I gather information about them, I frankly see a lot of portrayals that are inaccurate.

Inside the Supreme Court Inquiry: Seized Phones, Affidavits and Distrust (Published 2023)

Speaking of Dobbs, did you know that Justice Amy Coney Barrett voted *not* to take the case? All the women on the court– of varying backgrounds– said not to do it.

Here are a couple of stories, all of which unearth new information from one of our most secretive-- and critical-- institutions. First: In the wake of the Dobbs leak, the court tried to do an investigation. It didn’t go well. www.nytimes.com/2023/01/21/u...

An investigation of the abortion opinion leak was meant to right the institution amid a slide in public confidence. Instead, employees say, it deepened suspicions and caused disillusionment.

Hi, new people + place. Great to meet/see you. Here’s a little about what I do. You might know my work on Harvey Weinstein/SHE SAID; if you've been a part of that journey, thank you. For two years, I’ve been on a new mission: illuminating the Supreme Court. (🧵) www.nytimes.com/by/jodi-kantor
