1/ @jacklgoldsmith agrees w me on Mueller's weak statutory analysis
lawfareblog.com/mueller-report…
It "rejects the presidential clear statement rule and the important const principles behind it on the basis of other canons of construction in cases that have nothing to do with potus"
2/ I look forward to reading any responses
3/ Here is @jacklgoldsmith's key move: Mueller was able to sidestep OLC review by merely alleging, but not recommending a traditonal prosecutorial decision.

1/ The travel ban litigation continues. Judge Chuang (DMD), who issued nationwide injunctions against Travel Ban 2.0 and 3.0, denies DOJ MTD. Now, discovery can go forward into how travel ban is being implemented, including waivers lawfareblog.com/document-judge…
2/ I discussed the ongoing litigation in the Case Western Journal of International Law papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…
3/ Preview: the citations to Justice Kennedy's concurrence in Hawaii, and separate opinion in Din, will not matter on appeal. #SCOTUS

1/ Has the President waived executive privilege by allowing Don McGahn to talk to Mueller? @charlie_savage suggests yes: nytimes.com/2019/05/02/us/…
2/ The President's private attorneys said no. They distinguish between when POTUS "encourage[s] complete cooperation and transparency in a criminal investigation conducted largely within the Executive Branch" and allowing congressional testimony
lawfareblog.com/document-white…
3/ I love this nugget from @charlie_savage: "Congress lacks any prison for holding someone in long-term detention, and trying to use its limited security forces to arrest an executive branch official could provoke a dangerous standoff." Maybe the #SCOTUS marshall can help?

#NEW: Rick Gates told Mueller that he and Manafort shared Trump Campaign Polling Data in 2016 w/ Konstantin Kilimnik, who has ties to Russian Intelligence.

In new unsealed court docs, it was revealed that Gates was at least one source for the revelation.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
#BREAKING: In new court filing, it was revealed that Konstantin Kilimnik...WAS IN DC FOR THE INAUGURATION.

The Manafort and Gates associate, with ties to Russian Intelligence, met with Manafort about the "Russia-Ukraine peace plan."

#REDFLAG: In court transcripts, Andrew Weissman, senior Mueller prosecutor, suggested Konstantin Kilimnik's relationship w/ Manafort & Gates...TIES DIRECTLY TO #CONSPIRACY/COLLUSION.

“This goes...very much to the heart of what the [SCO] is investigating.”

#History/#Art thread – From my recent trip to Madurai/Tirunelveli. On Jain sites (some with a rich history dating back to at least the 3rd cent. BCE), early Pandyan rock-cut cave temples (7th-8th cent. CE) & the amazing Vettuvan koil.

Pic: Mahavira (~8 cent CE), Kizhakuyilkudi
Before I start on the places, the history around all this is fascinating & splits opinion. Is it apt to call the script Tamili/Tamil Brahmi? Did it develop independently in the Tamil country/come with the Jain monks from the north? Were 8,000 Jains actually impaled in Madurai?>
>Were the Saivites overaggressive in promoting their faith? Shall only be happy to discuss on these separately (unless it gets too long/irrational). And I’m not posting every inscription from the places here, despite their importance. Again, shall be happy to discuss them.

#Series ¡Me gustó la música de #Versailles! He terminado las dos primeras temporadas de esta ambiciosa serie de #ficciónhistórica disponible en @NetflixLAT, y ya espero la tercera y última temporada. En este hilo compartiré una apreciación personal del #Score y del #Soundtrack.
En primer lugar va la intro, es tan poderosa, que no usé en ningún episodio la opción de saltar intro o adelantarla. Es un tema compuesto por los franceses @M83 llamado #Outro. Se puede escuchar en @Spotify - @SpotifyColombia :

open.spotify.com/track/2QVmiA93…
O si prefieren en @YouTube.
