I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Trump is a criminal, but a majority of Americans chose to have criminal President. Our problem with America is that a majority no longer honor American values.

Repeal Gunmaker immunity! The marketing of firearms in America is an abomination.

Shooting deaths in America continue unabated. Restrictions were placed on cigarette sales Immunity from suit for gunmakers and gun sellers is an abomination. The marketing of firearms is unregulated. REPEAL GUNMAKER IMMUNITY !

NEW: With today's filings, it appears the Trump administration has decided on a showdown with the federal court. At this point, a finding of contempt seems likely. Then we are in uncharted territory. Sign-up for Democracy Docket to stay informed. newsletters.democracydocket.com/all-newslett...

Would today’s Americans vote in favor of preserving Due Process?

Is America really America?

The European Union and China are now starting negotiations to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. This is a major strategic failure for the United States.

Trump embarrasses America every day.

NEW: The Supreme Court took 6 months to decide immunity, but just 6 days to effectively strip the rest of us of due process. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-corrup...

They are snatching people off the street and sending them away to brutal prisons in foreign lands with zero due process - and they won't even bring them back when they realize a mistake was made. That's frightening stuff for any American who actually loves their country. #StopTrumpsTerror

NEW: The Fourth Circuit UPHOLDS Judge Xinis’s order to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US by midnight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

What are the odds that enough Supreme Court Justices believe we shouldn't put people in foreign torture prisons without due process & especially when the government misrepresents the evidence it has in briefs it submits to the Court?

Do clients really want to hire a law firm known for how quickly it rolls over? Yet, now this is Paul Weiss's well deserved reputation.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

Welcome !

Everything Trump does the n office is consistent with Trump being a Russian asset.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

Every action taken by Trump fits the profile of a Russian asset acting from The White House. He places a wedge between the USA and our closest allies & neighbors. He disrupts the economies of America and The West with destructive tariffs. He advances Russia’s position to grab sections of Ukraine.

It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.

Your April Fools' Day reminder that trickle-down economics is the greatest trick of all. It's nothing more than a cruel hoax designed to enrich corporations and the super-rich at your expense. Don't fall for it.

As a New Jerseyan, I am so proud to have @booker.senate.gov Cory Booker as our Senator. His passion to serve justice is palpable.

Deporting innocent people to a dark site prison in El Salvador is heinous I’m proud to represent leading conservatives like @judgeluttig.bsky.social, fmr Trump Spec Counsel Ty Cobb, fmr NJ Gov Christie Whitman & 30 others in urging SCOTUS to DENY Trump’s effort to stop court oversight of AEA abuse
