It’s too bad that only Justice Sotomayor embraces the claim that the history surrounding DACA’s rescission by Trump established a plausible equal protection claim. — PolitiTweet.org

The 5-4 DACA decision was an important victory, though not a permanent one, for the DREAMers, whose long-term status now becomes a campaign issue. — PolitiTweet.org

“At the very least, if the justices mean to change the rules for when government litigants should be allowed to obtain emergency relief, they should say so [lest they] give[] at least the appearance of ... favoritism toward the government as a litigant.” https://t.co/o2KebGRfgR — PolitiTweet.org

Such a defense makes abusive police killings much harder to prosecute for anything beyond manslaughter or 3d-degree murder. — PolitiTweet.org

States should review their felony murder laws and decide whether they want to go the way of MN and GA or are content to give police who kill unarmed citizens during an aggravated intentional assault a “merger” defense to 2d-degree murder charges. — PolitiTweet.org

2d-degree felony murder charges in GA for the police killer of Rayshard Brooks follow the pattern set in the MN murder of George Floyd. Only several states have similar felony murder statutes, where the intentional assault doesn’t “merge” with the unintended killing. Cont’d: — PolitiTweet.org

For a president who muses about executing his media critics, would it matter that the core purpose of the First Amendment’s Freedom of the Press Clause was to ban prior restraints? The question answers itself. https://t.co/r1lMB4X7L9 — PolitiTweet.org

Does anybody doubt Trump would pretend his administration had just presided over the discovery of a perfect vaccine in October even if it was a total lie? That he’d get the FDA to back him up despite its supposed independence? I have no doubt at all. https://t.co/LLehL1wiQ7 — PolitiTweet.org

Fauci says he wouldn’t attend Trump’s Tulsa rally on June 20. Trump says y’all come, but first sign a promise not to sue my campaign if you get sick with Covid-19 as a result. To my Tulsa friends: FOLLOW FAUCI, EVEN IF YOU PLAN TO VOTE FOR TRUMP. Covid-19 won’t cure stupidity — PolitiTweet.org

Right. A “prior” restraint at this point would both defy the First Amendment and achieve nothing to warrant that high constitutional cost. A “worst of both worlds” scenario. — PolitiTweet.org

The insistence on taking legal text seriously is one I shared with Scalia (see my 1995 Harvard Law Review article). It’s opportunistic textualism that I’ve opposed for decades. https://t.co/R0ndImIq9T — PolitiTweet.org

I wouldn’t accuse Trump of actually *wanting* more people to get sick and die. But he must know, despite his stupidity, that what he and Pence are saying and doing will certainly have that result. That makes their conduct not just monstrous but criminal. https://t.co/BbO7rmEGX8 — PolitiTweet.org

Now Trump (and even Pence) are saying the way to keep the number of COVID-19 cases from going up is just to DO LESS COVID TESTING! Do they really think hiding disease and death will make it disappear? Even 5-year-olds know better. Trump must think we’re all idiots. Maybe we are! — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t believe these numbers either. Not for a nanosecond. I expect a cliffhanger though I think we’ve gotta work our hearts out for a landslide if we expect him to accept a loss without creating a crisis. https://t.co/LxF6feLyZY — PolitiTweet.org
