If only the Supreme Court had abided by the St. Louis Court’s ultimate decision... Excellent research here.
The years from 1857 to 1861, with Dred Scott freshly inscribed as “the law of the land,” saw a wave of radical challenges to the power of the Supreme Court. Here’s a 30-part thread (lol) from my research-in-progress on antislavery politics and the early Republican Party.

BREAKING: In light of Biden's victory the Trump admin is fast tracking the Oak Flat Land Exchange in Ariz to deliver the land, & all the sacred cultural sites of the Apache, to mining giant Rio Tinto before the new admin takes office. Media, DM me for scoop/footage/photos.

Just wait for someone to invent Trumpopoly. Allows you to borrow from Russian banks, dodge taxes, declare bankruptcy, then borrow from German Banks, steal from Community Chest, etc... Watch out for that "Treason" card.

Imagine 6 American Muslims arrested for a plot to "overthrow the government and kidnap a governor" and not using the word "terrorism" to describe it.

Amazon should at least make me breakfast after all these late night rendezvous where I touch the screen just the way it likes.

Nineteen years ago today, I was clerking for a federal judge in St. Louis. I still vividly remember evacuating the courthouse, anxious for any and all news about what was happening in New York, then Virginia, and then Pennsylvania.

Wm. Clark was born Aug. 1, 1770. His country estate, Marais Castor, enchanted Washington Irving, who wrote about it in Western Journals. It can be reimagined next door in Normandy where Anne Lucas Hunt’s bequests preserved the land. (ALH was godmother of 3 of Clark’s children.)

The Clark and York Prairie garden is located in Wayside Community Garden. “Wayside,” built in 1892, is a StL Co. Landmark, given to the Normandy School Dist. in ‘65. Hopefully it will soon be restored.
