Maybe the most effective attack ever executed

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

love this guy on the humane society website who appears to have just learned what neutering is

Quote I’m thinking about today

We're going to do The Gilded Age again except this time with AI and facial recognition software that automatically orders a drone strike on your location if you say the word Union to a coworker

Sorry not sorry, I'm laughing at every single pardoned Jan 6 idiot who gets re-arrested or worse. Screw y'all. (except for the one lady who refused the pardon. You could have taken it but good on you to speak up.)

Pop quiz-When you’re a president they let you do it is not a valid theory of constitutional interpretation. Right, everyone?

Me, smirking at the bear devouring my flesh: So you actually can’t do that it’s illegal. Focus on economics

WIC. They are pausing WIC. That's the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children. Last time I checked (a while ago), every dollar spent on WIC produced over a dollar in savings *in the same fiscal year.* For most people, though, feeding infants and mothers is enough.

There is simply no plausible argument that the president has the constitutional authority to refuse to spend appropriated funds because he doesn’t like how the money is being spent. The legality of policy impoundments is just not a close question.

A lot of people only want to identify Nazis after they've done the mass murdering bit. The thing is, you need to identify them and deal with them earlier to stop that.

Pro tips for attorneys: Do not use money from the trust account Do not sleep with your clients Do not engage in a fraudulent scheme with police officers to get DUI cases dismissed Do not lie to the court Just a few things I've learned from my years of practice. Hope this helps!

I heard a new term today. I will only be referring to CyberTrucks as “Swasticars” from here on out.

Post: I'm so hungry I could eat a horse 🤣 Reply 1: An entire horse? Seems unlikely Reply 2: Some people are hungrier than that Reply 3: Kinda messed up to post this on national horse day

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

Let me explain to you how business works. One day your kids sit down for dinner and you give them just water. "Isn't there anything else?" they ask. Of course, you say, if you'd like to subscribe to Dinner Premium

ChatGPT is down? Huh. Crazy how that doesn't affect my life in literally any way at all

A remarkable, historic document: The federal government’s first defense in court of the Trump administration restriction of birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants. Actual lawyers signed this brief. I hope everyone reads it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

1. I often speak out in support of commutations, even for people convicted of serious, violent crimes. I would point out, there is a TON of difference commuting over-long sentences of repentant and rehabilitated individuals who have served significant time and what Trump did.

This is beyond ridiculous.

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

"why would he think you voted for trump" listen we all have our crosses to bear

Goddamn it.

this website app is free by the way

I try not to use this language, but guys, this wording is absolutely insane. I don’t even know what to say.

Excited for this to finally come out: The Snowball, a short animated film about colder, darker days and alcohol. Please give it a watch and a share. Stats, resources, and more information available at www.thesnowball.org. Watch at - www.youtube.com/watch?v=wg92...

All of you who enabled this. You who treated us as if we were over-reacting. We see you. We will remember. Don’t think for a second we will ever forget or forgive your cowardice.

“A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute.”

I strongly advise you to get this into your mind and then to try and drill it into the minds of everyone you know. Do not comply in advance. These hateful authoritarian lunatics are incompetent and stupid. They are relying on you treating them with respect and compliance to achieve anything

CONGRATULATIONS to the team at Phillips Black for obtaining a summary vacatur in a HABEAS case from SCOTUS! (The Court agrees that the prosecutor unconstitutionally sex shamed Brenda Andrews through evidence & testimony.) www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Everyone drop book recommendations - fiction and nonfiction - that you feel are especially relevant to this particular moment ⬇️

I took a class in undergrad called “The Habsburgs, Hitler, and the Law,” wherein I learned that almost everything Hitler did was legal. And many judges and lawyers helped him do it, all in the name of ✨The Law✨ So yes, I will be judging the lawyers who aid this administration.

peeked over at twitter and whew do not recommend

The just-filed complaint challenging Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship. Filed in the D.N.H. by the national ACLU, ACLU-NH, ACLU-MA, ACLU-ME, NAACP LDF, State Democracy Defenders Fund, and the Asian Law Caucus. www.aclu-nh.org/en/press-rel...

Just a truly horrible time for those with anxiety-induced stomach problems

EOs do not override the Constitution. I repeat; EOs do not override the Constitution
