Pete Hegseth is obsessed with the keeping media from discovering his bumbling incompetence. His solution to that is a new order seeking to deny press access to DOD and hunt down employees talking to the media. The Pentagon Press Assn is fighting back. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman gave an inspiring lecture about the need for lawyers to protect democracy. I was honored that he noted the attacks and threats aimed at me. His words serve to steel my spine and make me more committed than ever to fighting for democracy. Thank you professor.🙏

North Carolina voters, check The Griffin List! Over 65,000 ballots are at risk thanks to a court ruling favoring Jefferson Griffin. It targets young voters & could eliminate thousands of legit ballots. He’s going after people who followed the rules. Check your info. Fight back for your rights!

Social Security is sacred in that you put your money in (without a choice) with the promise to collect when you retire. They’re literally stealing your money. They claim that solvency is an issue, but had the GOP not robbed SS funds, we wouldn’t have any issues. meetbeagle.com/resources/po...

This isn’t hypothetical. Let’s look at how Trump’s steel tariffs in 2018 affected the industry. Factories closed as downstream industries—like auto and construction—faced higher costs, losing $3.5B in output. 1/

Important point here: they are not firing public officials to save money - personnel costs are relatively minor - they want to kneecap capacity so that these agencies struggle to spend money. Its a back door impoundment.

There is now reporting that the Department of Homeland Security has deported the wrong person due to “administrative error.” This is a massive violation of people’s rights and due process. Must be fixed.

Do you know who laid the foundation for the FDA? President Theodore Roosevelt. Do you know why? Because he read a great piece of literature that exposed the mistreatment of immigrant workers and the disgusting, unsanitary practices in meatpacking plants… The book is called “The Jungle.”

@booker.senate.gov made history yesterday. He made genuinely “good trouble.” During his brilliant record-breaking filibuster, he asked “Where does the Constitution live, on paper or in our hearts?” All of us are called in our own way to answer that question by our actions, not just our words.

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm. "Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

A parent choosing not to vaccinate does not put only their child at risk for vaccine-preventable disease. They also risk the health of: 1. Infants too young to be vaccinated; 2. People with conditions that preclude vaccination or render them immunocompromised; 3. Herd immunity for all of us.

1. The Social Security Administration and DOGE are GASLIGHTING AMERICANS. They are telling millions of beneficiaries that reports they were closing SSA field offices were fake news. Actually, these closures were PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED and LEASES WERE CANCELED. 🧵

As of Friday, there have been 46 cases in which federal judges have blocked Trump policies. The rulings in those cases have come from 39 different judges appointed by 5 different presidents (of both parties) to 11 different district courts across 7 different circuits. Maybe it's not the judges?
