During the Red Scare, Arnold & Porter was one of the only firms to defend people accused of disloyalty. Their courage is a lesson for today. Here’s their story: www.politico.com/news/magazin...
At a Time When Lawyers Feared Defending Government Enemies, One Law Firm Stood Up
A scrappy law firm decided to represent federal workers accused of disloyalty and survived to become a legal behemoth.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

This is Marco Rubio retweeting El Salvador’s president mocking the Trump administration’s open defiance of a judge’s order.
Every single Democratic senator voted to confirm Rubio. Some like Tina Smith, in her interview with me, now say they got it wrong and regret it. They all should say it.

Today, we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before.
But the greed of the oligarchs never stops.
Now, in order to get huge tax breaks, they want to cut back on Social Security, Medicaid and veterans programs.
Together we can stop them. We must stop them.

If we really wanted to talk about waste, fraud, and abuse, we wouldn't be talking about the Department of Education.
We'd be talking about tax breaks for billionaires.

If Tesla's stock drops far enough, the bank loans Elon took out to buy Twitter lose their collateral and get called back immediately.

It’s not “America First” to pull the rug out from under an ally and leave their people to die. This kind of foreign policy will end with no one in the world trusting America. Our alliances give us strength and the damage being done makes our country weaker and us all less safe.
