Ben Wittes, Roger Parloff, Quinta Jurecic, & Anna Bower, I would be glad to make a “Champion” contribution toward the $15,000 match by your generous donor. Lawfare is literally indispensable in these historic times in which we live.

What you're seeing are wet microbursts—intense downdrafts from thunderstorms that slam rain into the ground, creating those stunning lobes. Like a reverse explosion from the sky. Captured in Perth, #Australia

EEOC has protected me in workplaces that would rather not have to disrupt their white men legacy networks. It may look like lame bureaucracy on paper to those who haven't suffered discrimination or don't know they have, but it matters. It really matters. @americanbar.org @cnn.com @nytimes.com

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social What is he using now? Congress didn't appropriate money for death camps for FY2024-5 or the CR.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

It's shaping up to look like we'll need our own army now though. I hope local police and National Guards are designing plans for various scenarios to protect at least the blue-state constituents. Just paid a tax shitload for a felon to abuse me. @judgeluttig.bsky.social @nicollewallace.bsky.social

This guy seems pretty happy to be doing this. But beyond that, law enforcement is basically unaccountable. Try filing a complaint against an officer and see what happens.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

My bff’s son works for Americorps and received a decommissioning letter today. DOGE is gutting the program. I’m so angry and disappointed DOGE would go after a program that does such good work. @marisakabas.bsky.social @kairyssdal.bsky.social @katiephang.bsky.social
