in fact what "originalism" means is if our legislators take issue with the constitution they have to amend it — which they have done, correctly, for centuries — because a lifelong, unelected body of justices is not supposed to be passing law. it's supposed to be upholding it.https://twitter.com/umairh/status/1316038363665793024 …

“Originalism” would mean, among other things, that women couldn’t vote, that black people wouldn’t be people, that religious and ethnic abuse and exploitation of minorities and say gay people would be perfectly acceptable. When ACB uses that word, think about all that.

  Big self-own here, given that he proves the value of "originalism" by butchering meaning of the word entirely.

  What it really means is whatever the hell the author claiming to be an originalist wants it to mean. You just cherry-pick historical sources that support your preferred interpretation and say "see, THAT'S what the founders intended."

  Rather than paraphrase, I'll just leave you with the words of Paul Brest, who coined the term (in criticism) in 1980. http://fs2.american.edu/dfagel/www/Class%20Readings/ALCReadings/Brest_MisconceivedQuest.pdf …pic.twitter.com/znGNBmuuUK

  You’re good in the first half here, but go well off the rails in the second half. SCOTUS doesn’t just uphold the law or call balls and strikes. That’s an artifice, just like all applications of originalism have been. Many founders w/ varying interpretations of the constitution.
