In addition to Trump's horrifying efforts to wield military power against his constituents, there's the indignity that our tax dollars are funding the kind of argument you'd expect from a 5-year-old storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

Using litigation threats as a coercive weapon is called "lawfare," and it's the kind of conduct the FTC should actually investigate. Also, any story that mentions X's purported revenue increases should highlight that some advertisers are advertising there under duress www.wsj.com/business/med...

Has anyone seen this kind of thing in any other context? A federal judge being like "we’ve got to shut this whole litigation model down until we can figure out what is going on"?

"We do not want to be on the wrong side of history...The country is burning down. Our infrastructure is burning down. Whether the outcome of this investigation is preordained should not determine our ability...to take a stand, fight for what we believe in, and ask the government to do their job."

Okay so the Third Amendment jokes are funny obviously but there's also a deeper point, I think: Trump is more alike the exact things the Founding generation were afraid of than anything the country has faced in the interim

FTC's latest move is to see how many trans kids they can kill. This is dangerous and beyond stupid, and way beyond anything the FTC is supposed to have authority over.

Things that make me happy: Overheard two in-house counsel at the Digital Economy Best Practices conference talking about how they select outside counsel: GC 1: "The first thing I do is check the list on Above the Law to make sure the firm didn't capitulate to Trump" GC 2: "Me too!"

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

Across the government, the Trump administration is scrambling to rehire many federal employees dismissed under DOGE’s staff-slashing initiatives after wiping out entire offices, in some cases imperiling key services such as weather forecasting and the drug approval process.

Very important read. A lot of people who should have known better supported this misguided bill as it became law. Despite some good intentions, it's badly written and likely to have a lot of bad unintended consequences. Worst of all, it creates a lot of opportunities for Trump to censor speech.
