Richard Trumka Jr., Alex Hoehn-Saric, and Mary Boyle were illegally fired from the Consumer Product Safety Commission by President Trump — and they’re still speaking out to protect Americans. I’m grateful for their courage and leadership.

It's a high bar, but this from @radleybalko.bsky.social might be one of the most fucked up things I've read in the new Trump era. For context, this TX lawyer had just had an informal conversation with a family caught up in ICE raids. Seriously. Read this. radleybalko.substack.com/p/the-courag...
