ICYMI: Judge Michael Luttig spoke powerfully at last month’s Summit about the Supreme Court. “The only power it has, and the only power it has to wield on behalf of the American people, is the power of its persuasion.” Today, that principle matters more than ever. 🎥 Watch the clip:

Jonathan Adler on the Roberts Court: "The one area where it's been more active ... standing up to the Executive Branch, saying no to arrogations of power by the Executive Branch, the assertion of authority by administrative agencies that was not delegated to them by Congress."
“Some of his allies in the Senate that maybe the FBI process is not necessary...These nominations, these names are being floated without even preliminary diligence as far as I can tell on the part of the president's team.” — @greggnunziata.bsky.social on @amanpourcopbs.bsky.social
@comstockb.bsky.social: “This just absurd nomination of Matt Gaetz as Attorney General—” @gtconway.bsky.social: “He couldn't make it here tonight because he had a hot date.” “It's called a recess appointment.”
