Originalism begins with one controversial premise: the Constitution's meaning is frozen in time.

Constitutional law professor Luke Boso explains that originalism looks backward. Rather than asking how constitutional language should apply in the present, it looks to what a term meant when it was drafted, ratified, or shortly afterward.

Justice Antonin Scalia captured the idea with a provocative phrase: the Constitution is "dead." History and tradition become the guide for interpreting its terms.

But what happens when today's legal questions did not exist when those words were written?

Disagreement becomes unproductive the moment we stop engaging with ideas and start attacking the person.

Constitutional law professor Luke Boso teaches students how to have difficult conversations when the subject touches their identity. His advice: listen actively, practice empathy, and try to understand why someone holds a view that feels hurtful—without accepting that view.

But there is an equally important boundary. It is not the job of every marginalized person to change the hearts and minds of everyone who says something harmful. That work is exhausting.

How do you protect your own well-being while still leaving room for meaningful dialogue?

A gap in a roadway should never be a surprise to the people working on it.

Our client, an owner-operator truck driver, was contracted to haul dirt and sand from one side of a large work site to another. His bottom dump trailers were loaded by the contractor’s crew, and the crew gave him the go-ahead to travel across a concrete taxiway.

Partway across, he saw that a large section of the road was missing. It was a hole roughly ten feet wide and four feet deep. By the time he tried to brake, it was too late, and his truck dropped into it.

He was left with chest pain, neck and upper back pain, bilateral shoulder and knee pain, and bruising across his shoulder. He also reported ongoing anxiety, hands that would not stop shaking, and elevated blood pressure after the crash.

This was a single-vehicle accident, but not a single-fault one. Property owners and contractors who control a work area have a responsibility to identify hazards and warn people before they reach them. That means barricades, cones, signage, or closing the area entirely. When an unfinished road is open to workers and nothing marks the danger, the risk falls on the person driving through it, who has no way of knowing what lies ahead.

Attorney Arash Nematollahi secured a $2,200,000 settlement on behalf of our client, helping provide for his medical care and the income he lost while recovering.

You cannot simply file a case with the Supreme Court because you disagree with something.

Constitutional law professor Luke Boso breaks down the first gatekeeper: standing. To bring a claim, you generally need to show that you have suffered—or are about to suffer—a personal injury.

Even then, a constitutional case normally starts in federal district court, can move through an appeal, and only then can be asked to reach the Supreme Court. Four justices must vote behind closed doors to review it.

Who gets a day before the Supreme Court is far more complicated than most people realize.

Supreme Court justices serve for life. But could Congress change how often new seats open up without changing the Constitution?

Constitutional law professor Luke Boso explains that life tenure makes mandatory retirement difficult. But Congress could potentially create a form of senior status, where a justice remains appointed while an additional vacancy opens for the next president to fill.

The aim would be to stagger appointments, so one president is less likely to name several justices in a single four-year term.

Would senior status make the Court's appointment process more balanced?

Who decides which cases the Supreme Court gets to hear?

On today's new episode of It's Personal, Christopher Adamson sits down with constitutional law professor Luke Boso to unpack how cases reach the highest court in the country.

The Supreme Court hears fewer than 200 cases a year, and it does not have to explain why it chooses them. That power shapes far more than legal headlines—it affects the rights and questions that get a national answer.

Luke also explores why objectivity is not as simple as it sounds, and why empathy and informed conversation matter when disagreement touches identity.

Every ChatGPT prompt runs on water and power. But whose water?

Christopher Adamson explains why the environmental cost of AI is not limited to electricity. Data centers need large amounts of water for cooling, and that water can come from the same local aquifers and groundwater sources people rely on every day.

The question is not whether someone should use AI to solve a small problem. It is whether the infrastructure behind those questions is being built with local water and power needs in mind.

As AI scales, who gets priority when a community's basic resources are limited?

Why does Erin Brockovich still feel like a warning, not a history lesson?

Christopher Adamson connects the concern around AI data centers and groundwater to a familiar pattern: pollution harms local communities, people seek accountability, and the same questions return after the damage is already done.

From the Hinkley case to Dieselgate and Deepwater Horizon, the lesson is not that laws do not matter. It is that laws only protect people when they are enforced—and enforced before a community has to fight for years to be heard.

What would accountability look like before the harm becomes a lawsuit?
