Constitutional Originalists Love America

Being an originalist is not a good career move [but] we do it out of love.

Fact Check: No, overruling Roe v. Wade would not endanger other rights

Left-wing conspiracy theories

The left advances crazy conspiracy theories not because they are true, but for political goals.

Why the Leak of the Draft Decision on Roe v. Wade?

The Jan. 6 committee appears to have no more regard for the attorney-client privilege than for the Constitution’s Speech and Debate Clause.
