Math Is Hard
My oldest son is on the spectrum. He has a job but does not have a license. He still lives with his mother, my ex-wife. When he was in middle school, I attended an IEP (individual education plan). This is where we lay out what accommodations he needs and how best to get him educated.…

Erasing History
Have you read the Constitution? Do you know what it says? The fourth article reads, “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of our youth to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” That isn’t what you read? This is from an image in the Library…

Trump v. Wilcox on application for stay was granted. It was a 6-3 opinion. The usual suspects were on the wrong side of history, again. Justice Kagan wrote the dissent.

Do You Have a Warrant?

Tuesday Tunes
I have heard this song many times. I love Eartha’s voice, and her ability to tell a story. This is the first time I’ve seen her singing. Wow.

Universal Injunction and Justice Sotomayor
Justice Sotomayor used to be the least talented Justice on the Supreme Court. Ketanji Brown Jackson said, “Hold my beer!” and took that title. During the oral arguments, Sotomayor asked: So, when a new president orders that because there’s so much gun violence going on in the country and he comes in and he says,…
