1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year β€” enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare.

"We have allowed ourselves to normalize what is likely the biggest fraud in human history.
Now we have a job to do: guard our common home against plunder and desecration. Contain the corruption."

WilmerHale was polite, professional, and direct.

BigLaw could learn. Now, WilmerHale needs to actually fight this thing out. These orders are blatantly, insanely unconstitutional.

This is how it's done.

A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge.

This is how to guard the rule of law.

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

The Houthis PC small group should have listened to the Project 2025 course:

"Political appointees get into trouble sometimes [if] they're using these encrypted chat platforms or self-deleting messages, and they are, in some sense, violating the law by deleting those."

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

I’m tired of all the moral cowardice.

And now I’ve never been angrier about it.

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first.

Any lawyers at that firmβ€”partners or associatesβ€”who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.

They worked to prevent violence and terrorism at the agency created after 9/11. Then they got fired A federal program designed to prevent targeted violence and terrorism in the U.S. has lost 20% of its staff after layoffs hit its probationary staffers.

This is terrible. We need more people working in this capacity, not less

House and Senate republicans are actually calling out the Trump administration for their plans to withdraw from NATO's Supreme Allied Command Europe - the primary command that oversees support for Ukraine, and the first step in abandoning NATO allies.
