Originalism is a legal fiction

The concept of “Originalism” is a legal fiction, a hubris designed to conveniently ignore decades of jurisprudence recognizing rights expressly laid out in the Constitution. This is real and happening - look no further than Amy Coney Barrett has written that the 14th Amendment is possibly illegitimate. That is not an exaggeration or an implication; Ms. Barrett actually wrote those words in a law review article for Notre Dame. I talk about it here: https://bit.ly/ACB14thAmendment.
