Hi Folks! I wanted to share a 🧵about my JMP in @YaleLawJournal (now on SSRN). It reconstructs the law of officeholding in early US, arguing that it is inconsistent with the unitary executive theory. (1/

(1) Hi y’all 👋 I’m on the academic hiring market this year!! I’m a PhD at Yale. My job talk is a timely piece of legal history exploring Myers, Humphrey’s Executor, and the future of the unitary executive (not in the news at all 😅). Happy to send a copy! My top five courses were con law, admin law, civil procedure, immigration law, and legislation.

Hi! 👋 I'm excited to have a new draft article on Ex parte Young, inc. analyzing the doctrine in light of CASA. I argue that in limited circumstances like the challenge to Texas's then-unconstitutional S.B. 8 abortion ban, people should be able to sue (gasp) states themselves ⬇️

Delighted to be in @TheRegReview “in depth” this morning on how to think about the civil service — my contribution to the Schedule F discourse.
It begins elaborating a realist defense of bureaucracy as the worst-besides-all-others way of doing popular sovereignty. (1/3)

This @nyulawreview article reveals how #civilservants can check & limit presidential power through #collectivebargaining, challenging the traditional view of the executive branch as a strict top-down hierarchy.

"Employees at the Federal Trade Commission in Washington and around the country will be represented by the National Treasury Employees Union following the results of an election announced this week"

Thank you so much @jamiesonwebster for your remarkable review of « the madman in the White House » in the @LAReviewofBooks smart, informed, and challenging on Freud’s interpretation of leaders in power
The psychoanalytic establishment turned its back on Freud and Bullitt’s Woodrow Wilson book. A new manuscript shows how Bullitt edited out many of Freud’s most radical points. I fell in love with this gossiped about and bullied text. @LAReviewofBooks thank you @MedayaO

Fiscally irresponsible to eliminate one of the only no-cost bargaining chips available to compete for talented workers the public sector needs.
A Romney - Manchin bill would limit federal employees to no more than two days of telework per week and ban all-remote positions almost entirely, extremely limited exceptions.
