Hi @colintdwyer. Really, really great opioids explainer. npr.org/sections/healt…. You might note that we’ve sought to appeal the certification of the negotiation class. Several defendants have too, on the ground it’s hopelessly illegal, so the process is a waste of time.

The claim @nealkatyal was defending slavery is flat wrong & libelous. Here is what he actually said, which is the reverse: child slavery is abhorrent, criminal, horrific. Remember in a pending case he can't comment, so read what he really said in full.

For political wonks, can Congress can require the Pres to put "Israel" as the birthplace for a US citizen born in Jerusalem? #tweetthepress

Then it's the second half of the term that gets sexy - same-sex marriage, Obamacare, maybe affirmative action and abortion. #tweetthepress

The #scotus has gotten squirrely on privacy. The like it (eg, the cell phone cases) but are very forgiving of cops' mistakes. #tweetthepress

If it hears it, SCOTUS will decide whether to read the ACA literally; if so, the law dies b/c few people use state exchanges. #tweetthepress

#same-sex marriage is the case of the (young) century. They have to take it. My guess is they hear the Utah challenge. #tweetthepress
