@DanielDancrane @WheatonCollege I’m not familiar with that incident. I agree that sounds silly.

@DanielDancrane @WheatonCollege I’m curious what you see as drift? I wish Wheaton hadn’t deleted its tweet calling for prayer for Vought, though I have no problem with its clarification that it’s not taking a political stance. Wheaton has never been political. In what sense is it not standing firm in the faith?

It is an antitrust mantra that “price is the central nervous system of the economy.” Because market prices determine how productive resources are allocated, fixing them by agreement is forbidden. Troubling to see federal antitrust enforcers endorsing price controls.

@ProfRobAnderson The law schools & ABA have hardly modeled respect for the rule of law. Law schools routinely flout legal requirements on nondiscrimination, & the ABA took the position that they were *required* to do so in order to maintain accreditation. (I’m not defending current law-flouting.)

There’s tremendous value in curation. Great thread here.
Regulators pushing to flood the iPhone with third-party content miss the point: Apple’s magic is in curation. From the unboxing to case colors, every choice is intentional. It’s not about limiting options—it’s about refining them to deliver the best, purest experience. 1/7

@ProfRobAnderson I assume this was not a problem for you in Malibu. Welcome to Flyover country!

Great to reconnect with my former student, @LucasKunceMO, who came by to talk to @MizzouLaw students about JAG service. I’m proud to be at a school that produces public servants like Lucas. (Guy used to kick my butt on the running track. Payback for cold calls.)
