Adam Liptak should be fired for this. It's not some sort of minor technical error or a debatable issue. He's simply lying.

It's my birthday. The very best thing you can do for me is to support my book The Freaks Came Out To Write. You can do so by 1. buying it (for yourself or someone else) 2. reviewing it (on Goodreads, Amazon etc), or 3. sharing how much you liked it on social media.

Still marveling at Gorsuch's Ohio v. EPA opinion, in which he confused nitrogen oxide (a pollutant) with nitrous oxide (laughing gas). He did this five times, never once getting it right—in an opinion overruling the EPA's own expert scientific analysis! s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24...
