“Engrossing and Essential” — says historian Jill Lepore about Amy Gajda’s new book on the right to privacy — SEEK AND HIDE. “A gorgeously written, rollicking account” beams Dahlia Lithwick. I read the galleys and loved it. Judge for yourself with this sneak peek from page one. https://t.co/SUPz5LaYcG

I agree, and AG Garland still has not acted on the Mueller Report as the five-year statute of limitations clock runs down. Volume II had incidents of obstruction in July 2017. As James Joyce wrote in Ulysses, “Can't bring back time. Like holding water in your hand.” https://t.co/2Ps2PToYZW

While picking up my copy of @ElieNYC’s “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution” at @broadsidebks I spotted “Big Dirty Money” in good company and felt so grateful for a career that provides time to read, write, luxuriate in thought, and speak truth to power https://t.co/bDucS8oISa
