After the election, I created this Starter Pack of pro-democracy accounts. I update it regularly. I hope you find it useful!
Creates an active feed of (mainly) US politics
Election law profs, practitioners, and others in the field.
Law professors! So many law professors joined, I had to create two more!
This Starter Pack is a list of Georgetown Law faculty, staff, centers, institutes, and departments to follow and stay connected with on Bluesky.
A cohort of smart follows of folks who keep a close eye on SCOTUS and courts in general.
People I've met in real life, who I think are really nice. I look forward to meeting the 1,000s of other nice people who follow me. List is limited, so if you're not on it, it's possible I tried to add you but ran out of space. Also: It was 2 a.m. when I did this.
Craig Sheldon's Favorite Feeds
US Constitutional law scholars who employ a variety of methods including legal interpretation, history, and political science.
People who can explain how Congress and the Courts really work together.
Experts on government and markets (aka "democratic capitalism") in the United States: its past, its present, its fraught future.
People who research and share knowledge about American history and/or how it shapes politics - cultural and political history welcome. If you publish/teach US history/politics & want to join just give me a shout.
Some of my favorites.
I always learn something new from these people and they remind me that there are people in the world still doing good for others.
Accounts that engage with the minutiae and big picture of Congress, mostly from a political science perspective. Not reporters or actual Members of Congress. Limited to 150.
Interesting politics-adjacent people to get you started.
