@jonathanurick We’ve turned over all hard political decision-making to the judiciary. Until the stakes go down, philosophy won’t matter for either side. What worries me most is that the judicial right flank-Thomas, Rao,Barrett,etc-are set to kill stare decisis in favor of personal conviction.

@jonathanurick So the battle isn’t really originalism versus “active liberty,” but outcomes that fit reasonably into the nation’s needs and don’t toss x years of jurisprudence versus odd heterodox views that are vouchsafed to a judge on Monday and promised to the judiciary chairman on Tuesday.
