Worth noting: Quote simply echoes US anti-ICC sanctions' statutory prerequisite. 1st step in 2025 & 2020 alike was presidential declaration whole institution (ICC)=threat to national security of US or its allies (see my post ⬇️). Should've been more attention to/pushback against that 1st time 'round.

Congratulations to ACS Friend and Next Generation Leader Ashland Johnson on her induction to the @athleteally.bsky.social Hall of Fame! We are proud of Ashland's transformative work.

Happy 71st Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools.

She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama.

The past isn’t past.

“*sacrosanct* nature of national frontiers” - ??????

On Monday, governments will debate a possible new UN treaty to make education free from preprimary through secondary. More than 8,000 children from 40 countries have weighed in. My colleague @bedeonkidrights.bsky.social shares their views: www.hrw.org/news/2025/08...

I just filled out the form. I encourage my fellow academics and other authors to do the same!

JPS always said he opted for bowtie because he never learned to make a proper "four-in-hand" necktie knot. This lovely photo (source?) stands as corroboration.

Sometimes you just need something sweet to look at . . .

Why none other than (future Justice) John Paul Stevens, with his brothers Bill and Jim. ❤️

All the legal research / data sites are doing this now. They’re becoming almost unusable for users who want to keep their human brain matter intact. Time for some entrepreneur to start restocking vinyl, as it were.

Thought-provoking call by Prof Sergey Sayapin for study of #UseOfForce; would like to see "interaction with international #HumanRights law" added to para. 7
