Analysts at Cantor Fitzgerald, formerly headed by the Trump administration's Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, called for the dismissal of Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reut.rs/4cjOM3m

"If this many different judges in this many different courts appointed by this many different presidents are blocking this many policies promulgated by the same president, we ought to be able to agree that the problem is the policies—not the judges." www.stevevladeck.com/p/136-settin...

My friend Dr. Joanne Liu, former international president of Doctors Without Borders, was cancelled at NYU. The vice-president in education asked to see her powerpoint, prior to her lecture. One slide showed the number of humanitarian workers who died in Gaza. NYU cancelled the event.

With the Signal leak, a normal White House would admit error, promise to get to the bottom of it, fire some high profile people, and move on. But as @zackbeauchamp.bsky.social and @gregsargent.bsky.social point out, this combative cult of personality can’t do that. Worse for them and the country.

Why were these people confirmed in the first place? There is a cancer on the heart of the presidency, to quote from the Watergate era, and it’s infecting all of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/what-will-...

Let it begin.

Here’s my ask of you today: I want you to engage with EVERY article/post you see about Signalgate. Like, comment, share. Every one. The reason why the media kept talking about Hillary’s emails was because every story & post about it got massive engagement. Sound good?

I am very angry. Which is weird for me because I don't usually get angry. (Depressed is more my speed). But I am very angry at the cowards, the betrayers of our oath, the colleagues who joined my profession but now abandon any pretense of pursuing the ideals of the rule of law.

I was proud to sign. I am grateful for the conservatives who signed. I am angry at and have contempt for the many lawyers who know what happening is wrong and are too cowardly to sign. History will remember them all. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

To work for Donald Trump means you have to lie as you breathe.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Excerpts of a Signal chat published Monday by The Atlantic provide a rare and revealing look at the private conversations of top Trump administration officials as they weighed plans for U.S. strikes in Yemen. See excerpts from the group chat. nyti.ms/4iIBq2Z

DNI Gabbard testified she maintains her "First Amendment rights" to post comments through personal accounts regarding views that might be different from her official work positions. Yet law firms & lawyers (incl me) are being targeted by Administration for excercising their 1st Amendment rights. 🤦‍♂️

If there is one person on the Supreme Court to whom President Trump owes a debt of gratitude for empowering his disruptive, smash-and-grab second term, it is Chief Justice John Roberts, @cristianfarias.com writes.
