Good for you for doing what is right.
They are about to violate this law you speak of.
I hope there are lawyers standing by.
My parents had three rules: always be loyal, always do the right thing, and always… serve the best hamburger you can!
All three come into play here 2/x
Paul Weiss has always been so wonderful to me. That was true when I was in private practice at another firm & they were colleagues on cases.
And it has been true since in a variety of ways for me & SO many other people in the nonprofit sector.
But… 3/x
Like, how can I justify calling out other people & institutions for bending the knee & treat Paul Weiss differently just because I know & like them?
Believe me @jenrubin.bsky.social gave me an earful on this when we spoke… 4/x
The third rule! As the publisher of @contrariannews.org I have to call it like it is. That’s what it means to make the best hamburger when you’re a commentator

Mean is taking away people rights, their jobs, their healthcare, women’s bodily autonomy. Forgive me if I don’t feel like indulging people who find it hard to break with people who are complicit in this nightmare.

I agree about the caving to fascists bit. 👀
There isn't another good explanation. He was an honorable man before this.
I don't believe Brad would have done this without being under duress.
Rumors of infidelity exist, and that smoke has been known to many in & around the PW community for a long time. Most shrug. It's not our business.
It would not surprise me if someone found proof and leveraged it.
We have billionaires to and they pay taxes.
Pr. Capita Norway is the richest and best country in the world.
USA never was!
So true for all of us who have thrived in our democracy. We all must #StandUp to the best of our abilities — that includes difficult conversations
