    Thrilled that Justice Ginsburg attended the first concert performance of #NotoriousRBG in Song. She, Patrice Michaels, and the performance were magnificent!

    Inspiration from Lincoln’s Proclamation creating #ThanksgivingDay in Nov 1861: I "fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it …. to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity and Union.” @ConstitutionCtr

    "Even the Founder with the most expansive view of executive power—so broad that the other Founders considered him a closet monarchist—insisted that there were limits to that power,"

    Heartbroken by the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Please watch last night’s Liberty Medal video, where @ConstitutionCtr assembled the Justice’s favorite singers and special friends, to offer tribute to her blessed memory.

    Happy #PresidentsDay! Here’s President Taft on Exec Power: The President can exercise no power which cannot be fairly and reasonably traced to some specific grant...There is no undefined residuum of power which he can exercise because it seems to him to be in the public interest.

    Thrilled that @ConstitutionCtr will award the 2021 #LibertyMedal to Jimmy Lai and Loujain al-Hathloul. Both are freedom fighters and heroes of liberty who have been imprisoned for exercising their fundamental rights of free speech, nonviolent resistance, and peaceful dissent.

    What’s the #SCOTUS "shadow docket"? Why did Justice Kagan criticize it and Justice Alito defend it? On this week's We the People, I asked @steve_vladeck and @jennmascott about the shadow docket and its effect on the Court's legitimacy. @ConstitutionCtr

    All of us @ConstitutionCtr are saddened by the passing of @SenJohnMcCain & were honored to award him the 2017 #LibertyMedal. As he said then:“I’ve had the good fortune to spend sixty years in service to this wonderful land.” Read his inspiring speech here: tinyurl.com/y7d8xdlh
