Randy Barnett has ceased to be an originalist in any meaningful sense. Any principles expressed in his academic writing are fully abandoned IRL in favor of lib-owning.

there have been a lot of dunks on critics but not a lot of substantive support for the ruling, agreed

I won't fault the silent ones for not having a hot take, but I would expect something at some point soon. Barnett... argh. He was a prof at my law school when I arrived, if I'd been a year earlier or so I might have taken a class with him. But irony: he represented my former doctor in Raich...
