I spoke to Weekend Edition's Scott Simon about the Maine initiative to end Super PACs (now being considered by the First Circuit): npr.org/2026/08/08/nx-…
This is the core of the argument why Citizens United did not give us Super PACs: youtube.com/shorts/4QHG7QP…

Apologies for using social media as, well, social media, but: I've been in contact with lots of people about the upcoming AI-related events in China that was *very* eager to participate in. Unfortunately, I've not been able to secure a visa (and won't qualify for the visa-free option). Very sorry to miss... #WAIC
Want to qualify to celebrate America's 250th July 4? The Kennedy School is offering a "free, short, nonpartisan HarvardX online course on the U.S. Constitution" (though tbc: it's 250 since the Declaration, not the Constitution (trick question #1)): t.co/CpVjFnx1wK (click “audit” for free version)

Just circulated on SSRN: If Roe, Then Buckley. The essay is a challenge to the originalists: The method that motivated overturning Roe, applied consistently, means Buckley must go. Never have "We, the People" said billionaires have the right to control our politicians.
If a "business model" conflicts with your whole purpose for working, #scientists, then change the business model. Stop trying to criminalize the future. x.com/ihtesham2005/s…
Yea, James Madison's First Amendment has nothing to say about the President silencing a peaceful (and brilliant) critic, but if a state tries to limit the role of billionaires in elections, it's a 5-alarm First Amendment fire! equalcitizens.us/against_superp… x.com/WhiteHouse/sta…
Bravo, Kai! This a critically important idea: Democrats RIGHT NOW could end SuperPACs in their own elections. Let every one of them challenge others in their race to give SuperPACs up. Show America that Democrats don't believe in big money — because America doesn't believe that's x.com/kai_newkirk/st…
