Senator Accuses Jack Smith Of Perjury Because Missouri Lawmaker Too Dumb To Know About The Iowa Hawkeyes - Above the Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
First, the Iowa Hawkeyes delivered a demoralizing 20-19 gut punch to the Michigan Wolverines on a last second play. And now the university has indirectly exposed the sitting senator and former state AG of neighboring Missouri as an unserious clown of the highest order. Eric Schmitt is a dolt. This isn’t really news. He was a drooling idiot as Missouri’s attorney general where he proved incapable of contending with the plain text of a statute and succeeded mostly in wasting taxpayer resources pur
New Report Finds More Lawyers Use AI, But For What Tasks? - Above the Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
DISCO’s 2026 Legal AI Report opens by announcing that this “may be the year the legal tech dam finally burst.” Compared to the legal industry’s baseline, that makes some sense, with simple adoption taking a huge leap this year. Despite the gushing imagery though, the rest of the report suggests less of a violent burst, and more of a substantial, yet controlled opening of the sluice gates at Flood Control Dam #3, allowing a managed release to gently flow downstream.

Weil Get You And... Then Maybe You'll Go To Cravath - Above the Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
More fallout from the big Weil departures. Joe and Kathryn talk about balancing business and why “values” is not necessarily the corporate speak language law firms should adopt all the time. Plus new speculation that Weil is considering merger partners — has the music stopped on merger musical chairs, or does the industry have another blockbuster left in it. Then we discuss ChatGPT, college sports, Ted Cruz, conference realignment, the AI regulation freakout, ESPN, and the Protect College Sports
Everlaw Supplying Technology To Investigative Journalists To Help Root Out Corruption - Above the Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Investigative journalism always mattered, but it feels as though trailblazing journalists matter more these days. With the Department of Justice being run as a concierge service to shakedown the president’s enemies, and traditional journalism outfits like CBS News turning into marketing agencies for billionaire ownership, the constellation of actors working — sometimes imperfectly — toward justice has grown dimmer. What’s left are journalism outfits trying to piece together important stories at
Federalist Society & Bari Weiss University Planning New Law School... Move Over ASSLaw! - Above the Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Politicians started chipping away at the American Bar Association’s law school accreditation authority over the last several months. First, a number of states — including, importantly, Texas — announced that they would stop respecting the ABA’s century of experience vetting legal education. Then the federal government stepped in, with the FTC disingenuously claiming ABA accreditation contributes to rising tuition, followed by the Education Department recommending yanking the ABA’s federal recogn
