-Slime in the ice machine

-Justice Elena Kagan’s compelling reasoning for saying “and” means “or”

-Terrorism distortion and special needs exceptions to the Fourth Amendment

-The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is overwhelmed

-An emergency petition on the Texas A&M drag show case

-Don’t say 'Don’t Say Gay' when referring to this lawsuit

-Justice Stephen Breyer and choosing pragmatism and not textualism
