Rep. Jim Himes: Zelenskyy is watching 70,000 dead Ukrainians. Missiles are slamming into hospitals. This is what he’s seeing, and he comes to the Oval Office, and a reporter asks him why he’s not wearing a suit. And the effing VP wants him to say thank you…

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

I’ve been suggesting on TV and podcasts—without actual evidence(!)—that it may turn out that DOJ will wind up not having enough lawyers to defend all the lawsuits challenging this administration’s illegal conduct. Turns out it seems already to be true. 👉

Amazing lack of self-awareness from Clarence Thomas, who takes a dig at Oklahoma's attorney general for appointing a "personal friend and campaign donor" to review Glossip's case.

A president rapidly sundowning into full-blown dementia ambiguously handed power over the entire government to a delusional billionaire drug addict in a made-up illegal quasi-office and the Cabinet is split over whether their departments have to listen to his mad orders. It's day 34.

Lawyer Brain is setting the bar for Constitutional crisis at egregious, unambiguous, unyielding, in-writing violation of a direct Supreme Court order. And that means this Supreme Court majority can simply make up a way to say the law doesn’t apply to Trump (for the third time) and voila, no crisis.
