BREAKING AP:
Democrats have won full control of Virginia’s legislature — a major victory for the party in a key bellwether contest.
Democrats maintained control of the state Senate and flipped the state House, according to the Associated Press.

For a semester in undergrad, I interned at @UKinUSA. I responded to many children’s birthday party invitations on Her Majesty’s behalf. She was always honoured to be invited and disappointed she couldn’t attend. Truly a class act. #RIPQueenElizabeth
The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
If you’re a member of Congress voting not to codify other rights protected by substantive due process because they’re settled law, you’re ceding Congress’s constitutional power while proving the Court’s point and playing into the majority’s hand. Who decides? You do. Do your job.

It’s also incredible to imagine a judicial philosophy adopted in the 80s being used to overturn a decision from the 70s like Justice Scalia and others brought tablets down from on high to interpret the Constitution when they discovered history books and dictionaries.
The document leaked to Politico is almost certainly an authentic draft opinion by J. Alito that reflects what he believes at least 5 members of the Court have voted to support — overruling Roe. But as Alito’s draft, it does not reflect the comments or reactions of other Justices.

Regardless of how the Court decides the case, today’s leak undermines the Court as an institution and its independence as a body entrusted to tackle our most difficult legal questions. We don’t peer into the jury room; the same should be true of the justices’ deliberations.

At the end of today's argument, John Roberts pays tribute to Stephen Breyer, who just heard his last case as a justice. "For 28 years," Roberts says, "this has been his arena for remarks profound & moving, questions challenging & insightful, and hypotheticals downright silly."

Ending the death penalty in Virginia was one of my proudest accomplishments.
Today, in my last full day in office, we've moved the old electric chair, execution gurney, and other instruments of death out of state control and into the @VirginiaMuseum—where they belong.
Secret’s out: I’m the guy who actually finds personal jurisdiction interesting, especially how to reconcile the Court’s aversion to nationwide jurisdiction with the need to evolve the current doctrine.
In, “Everywhere and Nowhere: Reframing Personal Jurisdiction to Meet the Realities of an Increasingly Boundaryless Society,” author and Volume 28 Senior Notes Editor Justin Angotti provides an answer to how "minimum contacts" work on the internet.

Thankful to have read @MehrsaBaradaran’s book this spring and learned about the intentional co-opting and whitewashing of Dr. King’s message to benefit the white, post-racial narrative. (cc: @PaoloSaguato) thehill.com/blogs/blog-brief…
