Oklahoma and SCOTUS just authorized executing a schizophrenic
Read the Times rave review of Margaret Burnham’s By Hands Now Known
DOJ’s decision only to appeal the most egregious aspect of the District Judge’s foolishness is a wise litigation tactic. But the failure to take on the totally inappropriate decision to appoint a master reflects a fear of Trump 11th circuit judges. So much for the rule of law.
Margaret Burnham’s stellar new book, By Hands Now Known, named a finalist for the Kirkus Prize in nonfiction.
The call for a master is pure delay and base fodder and one hopes a young Trump appointed judge doesn’t ruin her reputation for the long haul by falling for it

Professor @michaelmeltsner comments for The @BostonGlobe: "Justices have the sole responsibility of deciding when they should recuse themselves from a case. They are not subject to any other power... and it’s not typical of people with power to give it up.”
