* Congressional Republicans are rushing to SAY they support IVF in light of the Alabama Supreme Court ruling... so why are they actively trying to block a bill to protect IVF? [Slate] * SBF wants prison term under 6.5 years while prosecutors are asking for 100 years. The source of the difference is the amount of the loss in the fake money case. [Law360] * "Senator Kennedy’s Judicial Pop Quizzes Trip Up Nervous Nominees." True, but they're also mostly BS questions asked by a senator in way over his head with this job. [Bloomberg Law News] * Trump judge declares federal spending unconstitutional based on parliamentary procedure. But he doesn't understand basic parliamentary procedure so... it's mostly gibberish. Too bad Senator Kennedy didn't ask him about that! [Reuters] * Litigation in high demand for West Coast Biglaw. [American Lawyer] * Private equity coming for law firms? [Forbes] * Kenneth Chesebro had a secret Twitter account despite telling authorities he didn't? Look, it's embarrassing for all of us to still be on "X" but you've got to do what you've got to do. [Daily Beast]
