Summary

This week: what is the shadow docket; just how insidious is Texas SB8; where in the world is John Pierce - defender of January 6 insurrectionists and probable grifter; two key nominations from Biden; and more. *Correction: Andrew refers to John Pierce’s two-member group as the “National Constitutional Liberties Union.” It is called the “National Constitutional Law Union.” Andrew may have misnamed the duo, but he did not mischaracterize it. Mr. Torrez regrets the error, but more so, the group’s existence.
