Although it was later narrowed, the Supreme Court's 1866 repudiation of Civil War-era military commissions remains a bulwark against military authority wherever civilian courts are functioning
Hey Steve? Can you revisit this post in light of Trump’s military takeover in DC? How do you think Milligan might be used (dare I say, offensively) to address further extensions of this authoritarian step?
Contemplate this messaging from our new Gang of Three, Miller, Hegseth, and Vance.
Thank you, Steve, for another essay that clearly communicates interesting information that is pertinent to our present. Each week I learned something from you, and I truly appreciate it.
I think the term "Photoshopped" is universally recognized, similar to how "Googling" a topic is now part of our parlance. Perhaps a more-descriptive phrase to use is "digitally edited", as there are other excellent image-editing software packages aside from Photoshop (GIMP is one I highly recommend that is Open Source). But, "Photoshopped" rolls off the tongue a bit more easily, just as "Googling" is easier to say than "performed an Internet search of/for".
I learned a lot from today's 'Long Read' - maybe a future One First can expand a bit more on the term "Ex parte" as it is used in the legal world. Even after "Googling" it (LOL), I still am a bit fuzzy on the meaning.
I had no idea the class photo is photoshopped. Why on Earth is Alito grimacing like that then, were his eyes closed in all the other shots?

Thank you!

Most of the justices look like they've had a few and are quite goofy.
Suddenly very interested in the limits of martial law!
