* The first letter of every paragraph in this rebuke to President Trump from the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities spell out the word “Resist.” That’s putting your English degree to its highest possible use. [Politico]
* “[The Statue to Stephen Foster] was commissioned in 1900 by a local newspaper editor who imagined Foster, ‘catching the inspiration for his melodies from the fingers of an old darkey reclining at his feet strumming negro airs upon an old banjo,’ per a 2010 City Paper article.” The “culture” some people are defending is embarrassing for y’all. [Very Smart Brothers]
* This is why we can’t have nice things like democracy vouchers. Alternative headline: we can have democracy vouchers and catch the people who try to abuse them. [Election Law Blog]
* The ABA is rolling out a “fact check” website for the public looking for legal information. It’s an interesting idea. I wonder if they should do it for law schools? Hmm… if only there were some body, some “accreditation association” of some kind, that could professionally fact check law schools, and deny an imprimatur of legitimacy on schools that routinely mislead their students. I’m telling you, the ABA might be onto something here. [Simple Justice]
* I’m in the Daily Caller pooping on Roger Taney. I’m sure no minds have been changed but, hey, Dred Scott didn’t win either. [Daily Caller]
* Cass Sunstein heroically managed to talk about infrastructure. [Bloomberg View]
* This is probably the first day that I’ve been excited to check in with Breitbart. “Get Ready For Bannon The Barbarian,” they say. Yeah. This popcorn is so good, you guys. [Breitbart]
