The usual trainwreck of cases is due in the final weeks @SCOTUS. Everything from Birthright Citizenship to independence of Federal Reserve Board & other regulatory agencies long protected by Congress & SCOTUS itself. But revolution may be in the air. npr.org/2026/06/09/nx-s1-584…
What's left to be decided @SCOTUS? LOTS!!! Birthright citizenship, trans bans in high school & college sports, the longtime independence of regulatory agencies, including the Fed, and much much more. npr.org/2026/06/09/nx-s1-584…
It's always good to remember that small injustices can have big repercussions. A friend of mine dries for Uber and uses an Avis rental, but he can't drive right now because Avis has not uploaded his registration, meaning he's lost a week's worth of income.
On a competitive beat, it’s really extra nice when colleagues say something nice about you.

Even though @POTUS may be furious at conservative #SCOTUS justices for invalidating his tariffs, POTUS is likely to get his way most of the time. Witness VRA decision & signs from TPS args, he's likely to prevail there too. npr.org/2026/04/29/nx-s1-580…
Until Trump, presidents of both parties embraced TPS, allowing eligible individuals to temporarily live & work legally in the US. Today #SCOTUS hears arguments that could end the program & lead to mass deportations. npr.org/2026/04/28/nx-s1-579…
What's the future of TPS protections? TPS holders say it's not safe for them to return home. @POTUS counters TPS is not subject to review by the courts. npr.org/2026/04/28/nx-s1-579…
Proponents argue the TPS screening process is rigorous, just "two misdemeanors, you're out" says attorney @ahilan_toolong. But opponents like @KSAGOffice @KrisKobach1787 say the program has effectively become an amnesty. npr.org/2026/04/28/nx-s1-579…
The TPS program allows eligible individuals to live legally in the US because of extraordinary & temporary conditions in their home countries. The Trump Administration heads to #SCOTUS today hoping to end the program. npr.org/2026/04/28/nx-s1-579…
Geofence warrants are the latest showdown between privacy rights and law enforcement. Today #SCOTUS considers whether the crime solving technique is constitutional. @AdamUnikowsky @OrinKerr npr.org/2026/04/27/nx-s1-577…
Imagine a world where law enforcement could figure out who was near the scene of a crime long after the fact. With geofencing, it's possible. #SCOTUS to hear arguments of the technique's constitutionality. @OrinKerr @AdamUnikowsky npr.org/2026/04/26/g-s1-1183…
Geofence warrants may sweep up innocent people, says @TheJusticeDept veteran Michael Dreeben, but the practice can be really helpful in solving crimes. youtube.com/watch?v=VjdZg-Wr…
