Carney gets a standing ovation at Davos for what is surely the most consequential address by a world leader in my lifetime. And he wrote it himself. This is one for the history books. This is what leadership looks like. youtube.com/live/uStuQ-TbL9k…

Kavanaugh just finished asking questions in Trump v Cook oral argument. Barrett is up now but it’s already clear that Lisa Cook will be keeping her job on the Fed.

Hot off the presses. An honor and a privilege to be included in Mark Tushnet’s festschrift volume. Comparative con law wouldn’t be where it is as a field without him. @OUPLaw @UVALaw

Dick Cheney endorses Kamala Harris over Donald Trump. DICK CHENEY.
Dick Cheney: “In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. He can never be trusted with power again.   "As citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our Constitution. That is why I will be casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris."

McLachlin announces she’s leaving the HKCFA the same day that Lord Sumption’s bombshell op-ed appears in the FT explaining his resignation from the HKCFA. Goodbye rule OF law, hello rule BY law
