Kim Wehle

Kimberly Lynn Wehle is a tenured law professor, writer, public speaker, lawyer, and legal contributor for ABC News.

John Dean, White House Counsel to President Richard Nixon and a primary figure in the Watergate hearings, wrote the foreword.

Wehle was offered a full scholarship to remain at art school, but ultimately turned it down in order to complete her undergraduate degree at Cornell.

[4] She was selected to serve as a Fulbright Scholar at Leiden University in the Netherlands in 2025 where she will engage in research on how citizens across six global democracies understand and internalize constitutional norms.

This statement prompted her to write her first op-ed, published in The Baltimore Sun, to underscore that most of the Constitution is not black and white, but grey, and that even the pardon power is subject to checks and balances.

[6] From there, she began writing with greater frequency on issues of constitutional and legal significance for various journalistic outlets, including The Hill,[7][8] The Bulwark,[9] The LA Times,[10] The Atlantic, Politico, Newsweek, and The Guardian.

She has appeared as a guest on BBC,[11] CNN, MSNBC, NPR,[4][12][13] Fox News, Al Jazeera, C-SPAN, PBS NewsHour, Peacock TV, NBC, Newsy, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, France 24, and on major networks in the Netherlands, Australia, and Ireland.
