An extraordinary, eloquent, courageous letter from Dean Treanor. This is how you stand up to a bully. Proud to be a double Hoya today.

Pitch-perfect response to Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin from @georgetownlaw.bsky.social Dean Bill Treanor.

It’s always a privilege and honor to be part of the GULC community (and to be Bill’s colleague), but *especially* today.

That's very classy. The 1974 letter from the Cleveland Browns' lawyer could also be reworked:

"Dear Mr. Martin,

"Attached is a letter we received on March 3, 2025. I feel you should be aware that some asshole is signing your name to stupid letters."

I look forward to Georgetown Law Prof. Randy Barnett's op-ed reply.

Emphasis on eloquent. One thousand tries, and I could not have written that without swearing or insulting. 👏

Also well argued to get at both sides of the court—or rather both sides of the 1st amendment.

...not impressed, tbh.

Retaliatory Canadian tariffs come off stronger

"This is unconstitutional. A weaponization of Govt against the people. We will send an entire army of lawyers to fight this battle in court & end this blatant 1stA violation & Govt attack on our institution, faculty & students."
