How not to respect the rule of law - this is among the worst judicial appointments systems in a world of shameless corporate vote buying. Wisconsin supreme court race a litmus test for Elon Musk’s political power

The irony with the responses to Rory Stewart here will be that Stewart cut his political teeth in a theatre of war, Iraq, and then traversed the Middle East on foot, while neither Musk nor his defenders have probably ever seen real brutality up close.

Grest post for German speaking international lawyers in connection with academic freedom and the weaponised antisemitism label.
Die unsägliche BT-Resolution zur Wissenschaft trägt Früchte. Nicht jede Äußerung von Francesca Albanese muss man teilen oder mögen. Jedoch spricht sie vor allem über Völkerrecht. Rechtliche Debatten müssen auch an der LMU möglich blieben. 1/
