When you turn the nation’s Dept. of Justice into the Dept. of Retribution, no qualified ethical attorney wants to work there. What you get is a bunch of bottom-of-their-class sycophants. Maybe this is what will save the day, ultimately, as they lose one case after another in court.

Justice Department struggles as thousands exit — and few are replaced
The Justice Department has lost thousands of experienced attorneys and backfilled a fraction of the open jobs, in part because of a lack of qualified candidates.

Turning over the US military to a self-important, unskilled ignoramus who treats the Pentagon and the officers who have EARNED a place there like his personal set of toy soldiers in a Lincoln Log fort is setting up the country for a very big fall. #resist www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/u...

Keep a close eye on this. The Supreme Court will hear yet another voting rights case this term. This case concerns mail-in ballots. The voting rights & election law cases in recent years reflect a steady campaign by Republicans to gain an unfair advantage. #resist

I just called the Congressional Switchboard to give my Democratic senator a piece of my mind for caving in and voting with Republicans. Believing promises given by the Republican regime is incredibly foolish, and that’s what I told my Senator. Call yours now. (202) 224-3121 #resist

I missed this last night. It just never ends.
#BREAKING: Justice Jackson has issued an "administrative" stay, temporarily pausing a district court order that would've required the USDA to continue using contingency funds to pay SNAP benefits.

The stay expires 48 hours after the First Circuit rules on USDA's request for a stay pending appeal.

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.

In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

By me & @carolinehaskins.bsky.social:
FBI Warns of Criminals Posing as ICE, Urges Agents to ID Themselves
In a bulletin to law enforcement agencies, the FBI said criminal impersonators are exploiting ICE’s image and urged nationwide coordination to distinguish real operations from fakes.

I finally returned home at 9:45 pm from running our precinct in #VA. We have an amazing team of #election officers at our precinct, and we run a tight ship. I am so proud of every one of them. We have over 3300 voters; 1267 of them voted early; 691 of them voted in person today. It's a RED precinct.

In our history we have seen faith leaders standing up to tyranny, often against other faith leaders advocating tyranny. Christian Nationalism is today's Father Charles Coughlin (look it up). On which side of history will you stand? #resist
