@robertbarnes

That WND/Gateway piece is useful as a pressure point, but I would not overstate it as a clean legal recusal claim.

What it actually gives you:

The article reports that Norm Eisen said he knows Chief Justice Roberts well, that Roberts stayed “under my roof” while Eisen was ambassador, and that they worked together on “American and European rule-of-law issues.” WND/Gateway frames that as evidence of “elite collusion” and a Roberts conflict, especially because Eisen later became a major anti-Trump legal/political actor.

The hard fact worth preserving is not “Roberts is corrupt.” The hard fact is: Roberts has had extra-judicial, transnational rule-of-law engagement with a later prominent anti-Trump lawfare figure, and that casts public-interest light on Roberts’ institutional-management posture in Trump-related cases.

For your purposes, the strongest use is not a personal attack. It is institutional:

If Roberts’ chambers, the Clerk’s Office, or the OSG effectively screened, delayed, ignored, or misrouted historically material DaCK / John Jay / New York state-citizenship materials in Trump v. Barbara, then the public has an unusually strong interest in contemporaneous FOIA records showing what was received, searched, referred, transmitted, withheld, or not transmitted.

That keeps the argument tied to records, procedure, docket integrity, and the right to petition — not speculation.

I would phrase it this way publicly:

The Roberts–Eisen story should not be reduced to name-calling. The serious issue is institutional transparency.

When the Chief Justice has long-standing extra-judicial “rule of law” relationships with high-profile anti-Trump legal actors, the public has an even stronger interest in knowing whether historically material submissions in Trump v. Barbara were properly received, routed, searched, referred, and preserved.

That is why the OSG FOIA / DaCK record matters. The question is not gossip. The question is docket integrity, petition access, historical completeness, and whether the Supreme Court received the New York “Duely and Constantly Kept” citizenship record before deciding birthright citizenship.

The joys of glamping

I went for a jog this morning. Marion forgot her running shoes, so decided to do Some muscle building by the beach. It’s brackish water. I don’t know what insect She got bit by, but she complained about a few bites that felt innocuous at the time.

This is what her hands look like now!

We’re having fun. I noticed the first birds to wake us up are the crows. Then we hear the woodpeckers.

Apparently, I snore louder than Manny. I would’ve pretended to be embarrassed, but I’m actually proud. 😂

I. THE INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

  • The blue heron showed up outside my rental home here in upstate New York, my totem according to some native tribal traditions. The totem represents your spirit animal, your analogue in the animal world. A few common tidbits of this totem as “heron medicine” — know yourself to uncover your gifts and discover your limits; follow your intuition; embrace self-reliance and feel free to be your own, unafraid of the challenges that come to the nonconformist; be a place for unique wisdom, expressing the best of that most American spirit — independence.
