So when the opportunity arose to share the story of #AlysonClaireLaw with @BusinessInsider I decided to be brutally honest about the good, the bad, and how scary going out on your own can be. businessinsider.com/lawyer-s…

Bar examiners, Do better. Your applicants are humans. Who want to become lawyers to, you know, HELP people. The level of suspicion that we’re lying about diseases is toxic, unnecessary, and demeaning. - a legitimate T1D who might beep (sorry fellow takers, I tried)

“It is not well to be reticent in describing that past. Our histories tend to discuss American slavery so impartially, that in the end nobody seems to have done wrong and everybody was right. Slavery appears to have been thrust upon unwilling helpless America” —WEB Du Bois, 1935

I’m a Catholic. My wife is a devoted Catholic. We may have our own personal views of what we would do if we had to make a decision. But our decision is ours and private. We will always support every woman to own the right to make HER own decision….#AbortionRightsAreHumanRights

Using Chicago as a distraction from your own pathetic idea of public policy is tiresome.

My student was in the middle of taking the Nebraska bar exam today, a proctor interrupted her exam to take her temperature, she tested at 101, and she was escorted from the exam. (And no, she does not have Covid.) . A thread 🧵 /1 . #nebarexam #lawtwitter @abajournal #barexam2022
