Cleaning up at the cabin in the woods, we found this today. I showed it to #BabyCannon, the end of whose muzzle perked up in a smile of fond memory. “boom,” he said wistfully.
It will be presented to @S_R_Anders as a memento...

A few hours ago, @qjurecic and I wrote a piece about the game theory of the standoff over the impeachment articles.

Quickly on its heels, Mitch McConnell has announced that he has the votes to pass his preferred trial framework—without negotiating further with Democrats.
This is very clearly the scenario we had in mind when we wrote the following:

This is a critical point by @BobbyChesney. We will be recording a Lawfare Podcast tomorrow on the law of this question tomorrow and I plan to begin it by declaring that we are NOT discussing the policy wisdom or strategic propriety of the strike. The question of may, not should.
We discussed the question of should on the podcast Friday, of course.
Joining us on the podcast tomorrow will be a truly uncommon collection of war powers expertise: @BobbyChesney, Ashley Deeks, @jacklgoldsmith, @samuelmoyn, and @S_R_Anders.

Judge Griffith of the DC at yesterday's McGahn oral argument to DOJ counsel: "Has there ever been an instance of such broad-scale defiance of a congressional request for information in the history of the Republic? Has there been anything like this?"
"An instruction has been given from the President of the United States not to cooperate in any form or fashion with an inquiry. Has that ever happened before? Not directed to one individual ... but everyone from the administration. Has that ever happened before?"
Bottom line, after listening to this argument, if the administration prevails in this case, it will prevail on standing. No chance DOJ prevails on the merits.

1/ Woo! My monster paper with Matt Wilson, "Locomotor and Hippocampal Processing Converge in the Lateral Septum" was just released in @CurrentBiology!! Not only that, but I made a comic to describe my findings!! cell.com/current-biolog…
2/ We used tetrodes to record from CA1 hippocampus and dorsolateral lateral septum, an area innervated by all CA regions of the hippocampus and many regions involved in "motivational" behavior
3/ Some cells in the LS were linearly modulated by the animal's running speed (could be positively or negatively modulated!) and/or by the animal's acceleration (also could be positively or negatively modulated!)

#BOOM Archbishop Chaput goes #MicDrop at #Synod2018
"If we lack the confidence to preach Jesus Christ without hesitation or excuses to every generation, especially to the young, then the Church is just another purveyor of ethical pieties the world doesn’t need."
"The elders of the faith community have the task of passing the truth of the Gospel from age to age, undamaged by compromise or deformation. Yet too often my generation of leaders, in our families & in the Church, has abdicated that responsibility...."
...out of a combination of ignorance, cowardice and laziness in forming young people to carry the faith into the future. Shaping young lives is hard work in the face of a hostile culture."

It's already #4thofJuly2018 here in #NewZealand and the #antifa uprising has started. A bunch of them came to my house to take my guns. When I didn't have any they got mad. They took away my wife and made me gay marry an immigrant gang instead. Don't ignore the warnings.
In the street #antifa mobs are pouring biodiesel on piles of flags and using them to like giant scented-oil burners but with drums full of estrogen. I never knew people had so many flags. I guess they were keeping them in hiding. #4thofJuly2018
Instead of the flag we now pledge allegiance the Mann hockey stick climate change graph. We all have to kneel in front of it and sing the anthem five times a day. The anthem now is "Girls & Boys" by Blur but with the words rewritten so it's communism. #antifa #4thofJuly2018

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether
