Tuesday Links
- Irin Carmon on yesterday’s staying of the Texas anti-abortion statute.
- Mark Graber and Brendan Nyhan on the Roberts Court’s “shift the left” that really isn’t.
- Fascinating investigative reporting from Katie Baker.
- Chris Squire, R.I.P.
- The death penalty in Louisiana.
- The picture of Obama after the ACA troofers had their arguments nuked from orbit is pretty awesome.
- I will probably have more on this, but a really smart analysis of law and social change.
- >Party politics and the ACA and SSM decisions.
- “Breyer quite cheekily references (twice) the DNA exoneration of Henry Lee McCollum, in September, as someone who “did not commit the rape and murder for which he had been sentenced to death.” Justice Antonin Scalia had once used McCollum as the poster boy for why the death penalty is morally necessary.”
