Of all the news in this NYT survey of sitting federal judges - incl 47 of them think the SCt is mishandling its emergency docket - maybe the biggest is that 65 sitting fed judges (37D, 28R), folks circumspect for a living, responded to a NYT survey. Stunning. And a sign that something is very wrong.

As today is Hans Kelsen's birthday, a reminder:

"The elimination of war is our paramount problem. It is a problem of international policy, and the most important means of international policy is international law."

Worth noting: Quote simply echoes US anti-ICC sanctions' statutory prerequisite. 1st step in 2025 & 2020 alike was presidential declaration whole institution (ICC)=threat to national security of US or its allies (see my post ⬇️). Should've been more attention to/pushback against that 1st time 'round.

Wrote this piece on the need to recognise gendered oppression - in all its forms - as always the path to #tyranny.

Gendered domination is alway present but failing to confront that = also failing to see the rapid return to patriarchy as the first sign of authoritarianism

Happy 71st Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools.

She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama.

The past isn’t past.
Ruby Bridges, age 6 Ruby Bridges flanked by three U.S. Marshals on the steps of her school Norman Rockwell's painting "The Problem We All Live With," depicting the event originally published as a centerfold in the January 14, 1964, issue of Look magazine. Ruby Bridge talking to President Obama as they look at Rockwell's painting when it was temporarily displayed at the White House in 2011.

JPS always said he opted for bowtie because he never learned to make a proper "four-in-hand" necktie knot. This lovely photo (source?) stands as corroboration.

All the legal research / data sites are doing this now. They’re becoming almost unusable for users who want to keep their human brain matter intact. Time for some entrepreneur to start restocking vinyl, as it were.

The parallels are stark: entire communities were forcibly removed from the West Coast in 1942 and today our immigrant brothers and sisters face the terror of ICE and CBP raids across the country. It was a miscarriage of justice then, and it is a miscarriage of justice now.
