It’s always a pleasure to argue before my home circuit, the Tenth. I would have loved to do it in the Byron White Courthouse in Denver — my favorite place to argue — but ended up doing it from here.

If you’ll indulge me, a personal 🧵 I've been storing up, about a question I often get (at least when folks have the gumption to ask it): “So… what’s the deal with your name?”

The fun part of preparing for a Supreme Court argument.

The best thing about an afternoon argument in the Fifth Circuit — beignets for breakfast! (For those on the earlier beignet thread, no, I’m not wearing my suit.) #AppellateTwitter

It was a pleasure to welcome @steve_vladeck to Paul Weiss DC today to talk about all things Supreme Court-related. It's great to have Steve and his family back in these parts.

All you need to know about my mom: she came to my argument at the Court this morning, then stood in line at the Capitol for two hours this afternoon to pay her respects to President Bush.
