Why has no judge appointed an independent, special master to evaluate and report on 1) actions taken by the appointed rogue personnel of an agency (DOGE, et. al.; 2) whether they have proper security clearance; 3) whether the TRO’s are being implemented; 4) the degree of data breaches?
... and done! For lack of a better alternative, it came as an application for "Litigation Attorney," which is what I'd like to be in about three years. :)
Mr. Elias - I will commit to paying $100.00 for your firm to put in a successful bid to sponsor the White House “Easter Event.” And unlike the President, I keep my promises.
Are you giving “how to grow & strengthen your backbone” lessons? ~260 out of 266 @housedemocrats.bsky.social & @senatedemocrats.bsky.social are eligible for a beginner’s course.
I think you will also need a mental health professional on staff , I’m a licensed prof and would happily support your efforts, and have a ton of colleagues also on board to help 💕❤️
I'd love to work for you, but despite having over a half-decade of experience as a successful lobbyist and being a published researcher/journalist, I don't have a JD or paralegal degree. I'll keep an eye out for any roles that do not require a JD.
I'm just subscribing to Democracy Docket to help. EVERYONE on Bluesky should do also and help support the fight. Don't forget Norm Eisen and The Contrarian...support that too!
I studied for the LSAT many years ago, intent on fighting for justice. Unfortunately the price tag of another degree was too much. But man I wish I could fight with you now. Keep going.
You know Marc I've said before how important you are to this country and begging you to never stop trying to save our democracy and country and our children and your asking for help scares me thinking you're leaving or you truly need more help because you actually need help...
Can you send Schumer - Klobuchar the GROUNDS for announcing an impeachment of Trump? Please?? The Republicans want them to make a move. #MondayImpeachment
35 year senior litigation paralegal with a massive amount of trial experience. I’m in Michigan however. If you would consider remote work and travel/ in office for trial prep reach out.
Seeing you named specifically in the EO targeting lawyers and judges, I felt a frisson of dread, knowing how directly this places you in the crosshairs. Thanks for all you do, I'm a monthly donator, and will remain so for the foreseeable future.
The Trump regime consists of New York property developers, one generation aways from migrants with links to the mafia, a tech bro and some uneducated rednecks with alcohol issues . Vance & Hegseth are the latter

Speaker Johnson is a lawyer whose BlueSky profile claims the Bible is above both the Constitution and the Quran. Methinks he needs a refresher course on the Bill of Rights.
I've been retired as a lawyer for years. Great proofreader/copy editor, though, and decent cartoonist. If there's something I can do as a volunteer, from where I am, please DM.
If you’re hiring clever executive directors with a big articulate mouth, I’m your guy. Otherwise stick with qualified lawyers. Your recent dialogue with BTC and “never back down” attitude is inspiring. Brain? Engaged. Mouth? Enabled.
Not an attorney, but will work for free as any kind of administration assistant. BSN, MPA, retired. I live and breathe confidentiality, but have to work remotely in MT.
Observing this administration, I've never wished more that I had studied law instead of medicine. I'd adore being able to bash their plans into billions of shards of schemes.
Are you just looking for Attorneys or people that are very good at research and not afraid to stand up against Trumps Mob. I would be glad to shout it from the roof tops that Trump is a POS
I'm thinking about states' rights this morning and wondering if a coalition of governors could be established and make some united declaration to stand against the reign of terror? I'm not entirely sure what I mean by this, but the state of the union is extremely

dire, and I believe that some formal, organized, push back from within the political system may be our only hope of surviving this. I'm concerned that we're almost at Tom Snyder's 6th & 7th lessons in On Tyranny: "Be wary of paramilitaries" and "Be reflective if you must be armed."

The Dem Governors have formed a group. Gov. Tim Walz & Gov. Pritzker are members. It's called "Governors Safeguarding Democracy" @govsfordemocracy.bsky.social . There's also @demgovs.org . They're on it. 🙂 But we should all be writing to our Governors (R & Dem) to let them know our point of view. 👍🏼
Thanks for this. It would be better if this weren't another "us vs. them" thing but we have to start somewhere.
I'm worried that protesting will slide into vigilantism.
I support you and most of your work, but as a Progressive I am not sure I believe you work for us. We have faced a war imposed on us by the Democratic machine and they are your main customer. Hard to square that circle. Still I hope the Trump's legal attack on you, backfires.
I’ve worked as a fraud investigator for decades. Mostly insurance but I have great investigative skills & instincts if you need a researcher. I will gladly work for free just to be a part of the great work you do for all of us.
I was a lawyer back in the day, getting ready to retire as a professor. Maybe reactivate and work remotely doing research or drafting, anything to help out?
Probably a silly question, but does your Seattle office have a Law Reading program for intelligent, driven people who can't possibly afford law school?
I know Washington allows it, and while I'm not sure it's a g realistic way to produce lawyers who are cut out for huge, high-stakes court cases, it's likely a good way to produce competent clerks, generic community legal advice, & potentially, with exceptional participants, even public defenders.
I know someone looking with experience with the RNC, among other organizations, who'd love a chance to do something about this era of "Amerikan Troubles".
Now back to my job search due to Trump DOGian tearing up the community security net.
I have a short list of people I'd love to sit with on the porch on a spring evening to solve all the world's problems over cocktails. Because of posts like this, you're at the top of the list.
"DementedDonnie" is attacking the judicial system!
That is the M.O. of Want-to-be-Tyrants!
"Retribution-in-the-White-House" has attacked every Federal Agencies/Entities without authority!
"DelusionalDonnie" claims the people want him a third term! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mNBJdkTEnc&t=871s
Lets call his bluff!

Thank you for your service Marc!
Unhighlight the word ^ helping ^ in the above to correctly describe your group.
That will define clearly whether we have a coup on our hands and require a mutiny revolution
Fight on.

I’m in UK but hear about the shenanigans in the Oval Office.
Professional Services firms are unique in that their main asset walks out the door every evening.
The Peter Weiss settlement will cause partners to leave rather than represent fascists pro-bono.
A large number of Peter Weiss customers are going to be leaving as well.
All in all, hard to see how the firm can survive in business very long.
Thank you for standing up to all this chaos Mr. Elias! This country needs more people like you and your team 💪

For your firm, I'd work for free!
