- Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli tries to make it easier for people to arm themselves while driving.
- Justice Thomas is no longer mad at Yale.
- Rob Weiner discusses how the roots of much of the case against the Affordable Care Act can be found in discredited Supreme Court decisions striking down child labor laws and other essential regulations.
