Exactly this. The word "sovereign" in their bullshit gives the whole game away. The 14th Amendment is a sovereign act. Regardless of any history of "allegiance" as a sovereign's expectation for citizenship, *the 14th Amendment states the opposite explicitly.*

Ok, but who's sovereign? The people. And the people passed the 14th Amendment.

As @pbump.com brilliantly observed, this is pure developer-speak. "We'll be done retiling the lobby in two or three weeks." "The roof repairs are gonna be a couple, maybe three weeks." "The war I started, maybe another couple weeks."

Supremacy From two acclaimed legal scholars, a new history of the Supreme Court that overturns our most basic assumptions about its role in our democracy, showing how it seized the power it now wields., Suprema...

After years of research, Daphna Renan & I are thrilled to announce preorders of SUPREMACY. Why is US democracy so broken? One reason is we've wrongly accepted that 9 justices have the final say over the Constitution. This book traces how that happened—& how we can reclaim power to govern ourselves.

Lope de Vega wrote a billion plays. I found one that seems to begin with a marriage scene (Peribáñez y el Comendador de Ocaña); there are probably ~4 million others by him alone.

HBD, Frank O'Hara! At the risk of being basic, this is an absolute banger and you should memorize it.

Every I.C.E. victim in these clips is a U.S. citizen.

These are the Kavanaugh Stops™️ that that human frat paddle assured us would last only momentarily and cause only minor, if any, inconvenience. All lies.

Rule of Law is dead and buried. There is no coming back from this. Sorry, folks.

Ha! It is!!! I just got over being embarrassed in the theater years ago. 🤣

Well, the often poor theatrical quality is part of the embarrassment. It's not usually a "good" production. But it's important and, when I can get over myself enough to admit sentiment, stirring.

I find protesting incredibly exposing and embarrassing.

Do it anyway.

No kings!

Law — Text — Performance My recent academic publication arguing that law would be well-served by attending to the relationship between text and performance with greater sophistication.

I recently published a chapter in a collection on *Performing Law*. My contribution considers the complex relationship among law, text, and performance, and what we might learn if we think about legal texts as dramatic texts.
