    NEW ARTICLE: Fourth Amendment law recognizes a buffer zone around the home—so-called "curtilage," that cops can't enter outside an "implied license." SCOTUS says this is all intuitive and found in social norms. But is it? We decided to ask people. BONUS: Lots of pictures!

    The most important dividing line in American politics these days, it seems to me, isn't between liberal and conservative. It's between those who saw the con early and those who still don't see it.

    Imagine if the Starr Report had been provided only to President Clinton's Attorney General, Janet Reno, who then read it privately and published a 4-page letter based on her private reading stating her conclusion that President Clinton committed no crimes.

    Not sure which is more remarkable: That the President sees the pardon power as a way to reward his friends, or that the President has so many friends who need pardons.

    One lesson of the last four years is how many people absolutely love having a President who is an extraordinarily horrible human being.

    .@jonathanvswan: “Oh, you’re doing death as a proportion of cases. I’m talking about death as a proportion of population. That’s where the U.S. is really bad. Much worse than South Korea, Germany, etc.” @realDonaldTrump: “You can’t do that.” Swan: “Why can’t I do that?”

    Andrew McCarthy is on Fox News, saying that when he was a federal prosecutor, he prosecuted terrorists for the same thing the protesters are doing at the Capitol Building. "The President incited this."

    I recognize the damage done by Trump’s crazier and crazier election conspiracy theories, but I also appreciate the clarity he is providing to all, on his way out the door, about who he is.

    The President's campaign manager, his longtime personal political advisor, and his personal lawyer have all been actually charged and convicted of serious felony crimes, but he wants you to think Joe Biden is a criminal because, well, his son had emails, and like, you know, email

    I don't know if Trump is going to be reelected in 2024. But I know that, if he is, he's going to preface every blatantly illegal thing he does by saying, "Official act, this is an official act."
