I had a busy writing week, so figured I’d do a little end-of-week ICYMI thread.

1. In Tuesday’s @nypost, I had an initial column on Monday’s unfortunate Title VII case at SCOTUS—and what it portends for the future of the “legal conservative movement.” nypost.com/2020/06/15/nei…
2. On Thursday, I joined with @JamesWilsonInst’s Garrett Snedeker to argue, at @Newsweek, how the disappointing week at SCOTUS proves that defying the anti-constitutional fiction of judicial supremacy is more important now than ever before. newsweek.com/we-need-reject…
(Related/shameless plug: If you enjoyed that one, I have a lengthier recent academic article on the exact same subject. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…)
3. My syndicated column for the week (h/t @CreatorsNation) focused on America’s appalling crisis of gratitude—and how to make America grateful again. creators.com/read/josh-hamm…
4. On Friday, I elaborated at @theammind on where the “conservative legal movement” can possibly go from here. americanmind.org/post/undoing-t…

One of the most dishonest accusations is that criticism of George Soros is "antisemitic."

It is not.

Today, @willscharf and I are launching Jews Against Soros (jewsagainstsoros.com) to push back against this false narrative—and Soros' agenda.
Soros has dedicated his life to fomenting American anarchism, undermining Israel's territorial integrity, and destabilizing Western nation-states more generally.

As @cjvalues' Rabbi Dov Fischer wrote last year, criticism of Soros is, in fact, a *mitzvah*. nypost.com/2022/02/01/its…
Some who justly and correctly criticize Soros, such as @elonmusk recently, are lambasted as "antisemites" by leftist media apparatchiks who agree with Soros' destructive agenda.

It also happened to @marcorubio last year, as @Joelmpetlin wrote about here. newsweek.com/mislabeling-an…

My speech at @NatConTalk 3, "Common Good Originalism After Dobbs," is now available as an adapted essay at @theammind.

Check it out.👇🏼 americanmind.org/features/flori…
@NatConTalk @theammind The question, in the aftermath of the unprecedented victories of the most recent U.S. Supreme Court term, is whether the recent conservative jurisprudential fights remain relevant.

The short answer is: of course. But it is important to understand why. americanmind.org/features/flori…
One key insight that national conservatism and the broader “New Right” political phenomenon have brought to the table is the idea that there is *no such thing* as “values-neutrality.”

Everything we do in politics and law amounts to a value judgment. americanmind.org/features/flori…

"Welcome To Two-Tiered America."

My syndicated column for the week. newsweek.com/welcome-two-ti…
A two-tiered America is an "America" in name only. There is nothing good down that rabbit hole. Anyone who has ever thumbed through a history book can tell you how that story ends: not well, and sometimes with great bloodshed.

My latest @NewsweekOpinion. newsweek.com/welcome-two-ti…
Amid the collapse of the "public"-"private" distinction and the "other"-izing of half the citizenry by POTUS himself, the stakes could not be higher. The antitrust debate, for instance, is now less about economics and more about outright dehumanization. newsweek.com/welcome-two-ti…

Trump is emphatically correct that this is conduct befitting a third-world banana republic, not the United States of America.

Equal parts terrifying and revolting.
I’m not entirely sure what the right thing to do is at this precise juncture, and this is of course a federal raid, but @GovRonDeSantis needs to do something about this utter outrage in Palm Beach.

Tit-for-tat. Mutually assured destruction. The only way out is through.

I’m calling for a complete and total shutdown of Reform “rabbis” purporting to speak on behalf of Halacha—let alone such a thorny issue as Halacha and abortion—until we can figure out what the hell is going on.
I guess “intellectual openness” isn’t a “Jewish value,” according to the Reform “rabbinate.”
