His mistake was taking the assignment to begin with rather than resigning. The wisest lawyer so far is SDNY's Hagan Scotten who said when resigning: “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

If the new tariffs stay in place for multiple years, and are enforced and inflationary, and DOGE continues to cut and fire , we will be in a far worse situation than 2008

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

This is so poorly drafted I have to imagine it got basically no review by real lawyers. I’m not aware of any state or local IDs that that would fall within categories (B) or (D).

The only thing standing between Donald Trump and his authoritarian dream is the courts. But to defeat him, we need lawyers willing to litigate against him. Trump is trying to intimidate lawyers and law firms to stop fighting. At least for me, it won't work. I wear his scorn like a badge of honor.

This is why the Republican Party went all in for Trump. This has been their wet dream for decades. Trump is the man to do it. He will literally dismantle democracy and the regulatory state, and murder the poor en masse to make the rich richer. Their panties are soaked at this prospect.

There is virtually no better commercial you can run for the European defense industry than these two sentences uttered by Trump. No matter with whom I’m talking about this on this side of the pond, the common understanding is that this is going to severely damage the US industry.
