Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

The fact that the Department of Justice has not, and will never, launch an investigation into this massive national security breach tells you all you need to know about this lawless and profoundly corrupt Administration.

Listen everyone. I’ve see classified stuff before. This in the Atlantic is the kind of stuff that gets the highest classification. I had to have TS clearance to hear the names of the people we targeted in Iraq when i was with TF16 and 17. And still some names were withheld until op was over….

As more information is revealed, it is clear that the cover-up is even worse than the crime. Every single person involved has no business being involved in our government. At minimum, there should be resignations. And prosecutions.

Today, four U.S. soldiers went missing in Lithuania during a training exercise and were found dead. When asked about it during an Oval Office presser, Trump claimed he knew nothing about it. Because he doesn't care about our military. He has never cared about our military. They are mere collateral.

I think the Atlantic scandal might actually be a pretty big turning point, more than it seems at first. Not because it's the worst thing Trump has done, but because they look SO, SO stupid and incompetent. And it's an incredible reminder that this is all a massive clown show.

So this is absolutely an attack on democracy, but I am struck by the sequencing, because it doesn't resemble - to me at least - the normal sequencing for an authoritarian takeover. But I think it makes sense given a conspiratorial and inaccurate view of where liberal support comes from. 1/

It’s a long “memorandum,” but it’s essentially telling Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem to go after lawyers who challenge the federal government — which is many lawyer’s jobs. It’s basically a catch-all “let’s Paul Weiss whoever pisses us off” memo.

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first. Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.
