1/ 🧵I’m interrupting my vacation to investigate the free-speech debacle at @StanfordLaw involving Judge Kyle Duncan (5th Cir.). This thread from @EdWhelanEPPC is accurate (but I have additional info).👇 https://t.co/PTl8dJXCxk

Instead, their operating principle is: If I don’t like what you say or think, I will silence you.
‘Unless those students undergo a radical change in their whole approach to argument and disagreement, they are unfit to be members of any bar.’ “

Stay classy, Stanford.
Law students protest the Dean for her apology to Judge Duncan, and those who didn’t join in the protest.
