The GOP budget bill would require that judges collect a bond from all parties seeking a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, a move that could limit courts’ power.

In times like this, integrity matters. Well done 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽

Top lawyers walked out of Paul Weiss to start their own firm—right after the firm cut a shady deal with the White House to dodge an executive order that would’ve limited its business.

Some folks still have a spine.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the inevitable defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy.
The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight
Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.

The number of assaults on law enforcement in ONE DAY on January 6th is higher than the number of assaults on ICE officers over a decade.
In 2018, the DHS OIG published the following statistics for assaults against ICE enforcement and removal operations which were considered serious enough to merit criminal prosecution.

Over a four year period, Fiscal Years 2014-2017, that amounted to 28 cases charged in federal court. Total.

The current President is taking bribes from anyone who’ll offer them but I’m so glad Alex Thompson and Jake Tapper are not letting that distract them from the fact that the former President who just got diagnosed with cancer is also old.

@jaketapper.bsky.social what a shitty book you (Tapper) published. Nobody needed a book about his decline - he served us honorably his entire life. What were you hoping to gain from this? A few bucks? @cnn.com

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.
