I recorded a special episode of my Bulwark podcast with @timmiller.bsky.social this morning to discuss Paul, Weiss’s appalling capitulation to the First Extortionist of the United States. I didn’t mince words. Link below. @thebulwark.bsky.social

If Brad Karp has any decency, he would resign from the firm he has dishonored. If Paul Weiss partners have any self-respect, they will do the same to protest this capitulation.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

“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."

“George Conway, a frequent Trump critic and a former partner at a major law firm, told NBC News that firms need to look beyond the bottom line: “‘They have a moral duty to defend the very system that has allowed them to make the kind of money that they make. … (1/2)

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

Tulsi Gabbard now confirmed Director of National Intelligence. Comrade Putin gets ANOTHER agent in a key position. His years long cultivation of Trump and Republicans has been worth the effort. Powerful opposition needed NOW.

Who would have thought Russia is fully integrated into the USA government Jack Ryan must be throwing up somewhere
