I’ve long much appreciated Keller’s analyses, so I thought I’d pass along this one about today’s TikTok decision; I disagree with parts of it, but I think it’s quite interesting and insightful: Given that I considered TikTok’s loss a foregone conclusion, this feels like maybe the best possible outcome.

Outgoing President Joe Biden announced today that he believes the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) met ratification requirements and is now the official 28th amendment to the Constitution—a statement that has no legal force since the amendment remains unpublished. “I agree with the [American Bar Association] and with leading legal constitutional scholars that the Equal Rights […]
