If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Man, if we can come out of this scandal with both Larry Summers and Jaime Dimon getting ostracized from polite society, that would be amazing.
Top JPMC execs were in constant contact with Epstein and were aware of his shady financials. Top staff at JPMC, reporting directly to CEO Jamie Dimon, closely supervised Epstein’s accounts. One even coached Epstein on how to sanitize his suspiciously large cash withdrawals.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Fox News displaying a poll with the first age bracket for women and men being 15-44.
Once again, 15 year olds are children.
They are kids.
They are not adults, they can’t consent to sex, and pedophilia must not be normalized.

I wish we lived in a land where if journalists heard the president call one of their colleges "piggy" or suggest another of their colleagues, who was butchered for what he wrote, in some way had it coming, they would close their laptops, leave as soon as possible, and ask to be reassigned.

It seems like every day I learn about someone passing who has been a touchstone for me. While considering who to ask about speaking on criminal justice, I immediately thought of Ed Latessa, only to discover that he died in 2022. I never met him, but loved him anyway.

The House of Representatives will vote on releasing the Epstein files today.
It will pass, then it needs to get through the Senate and Trump.
Trump claims he has nothing to hide, yet he could’ve directed the DOJ to release the files at any time.
He doesn’t need a vote from Congress.
