I know he's president, but when will the media learn to stop listening to him becuase nothing that comes out if his mouth has any actual meaning?

I am Jewish.
I have spent literally my entire life on university campuses.
I was the child of two Jewish professors.
Since kindergarten I have spent exactly one year as neither a student nor a professor.
I have, on occasion, experienced antisemitism. But never on a university campus.

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first.
Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.

The White House quietly released a Friday night EO that would eradicate privacy protections, make enemies lists a lot easier to assemble, and basically set the stage for a police state.
The first and most important thing to know about last night's Exec order is that it's intended to break current law and allow people throughout the federal gov look at yr tax returns. Beyond that it's intended to compel states to turn over all their data to the fed govt.

Hey Democrats: Maybe Now *Is* the Time to Fight?
Trump is racing to dismantle the rule of law before Democrats can make him unpopular enough so that other institutions can push back against him. Do the Dems understand this?

Many of you have asked what you can do to help fight the country's dramatic slide into fascism. If you are in house counsel, here is one important thing: send all your work to Covington, Perkins Coie, and other firms willing to resist Trump and that have been made targets for that reason.

Emphasizing again that anyone who responds to "that's illegal" with some variant of "lol all law is meaningless you're a sucker for thinking that matters" is actively doing PR for Trump and helping him.
Nihilism about the law is the best way to make sure that the rule of law dies a quicker death.

If you can’t hide the secret, feature it. Need to steal a coin from your pocket? Dipping in looks suspicious. So make it deliberate. Reach in openly, emerge holding a handkerchief. All eyes are on the cloth; no one sees the coin now in your palm. You can steal anything this way. Even a government.

All the mainstream media is doing is wasting their legitimacy by showing up. It isn't helping them or the public. Get some sources, do some real reporting. Why does it help to give platform what lies Barbie Goebbels is telling?
Brian, Wired isn’t in the White House yet they kick CNN’s ass every day and twice on Sunday. Find some courage or stop wasting everybody’s time with this ‘strategy’ bullshit.
Consider the possibility that the Trump White House WANTS this fight. Wants journalists to act like opponents instead of observers. If the entire press pool skipped a Trump photo op in solidarity with The AP, wouldn't the White House welcome Breitbart and One America News to take their places?

So either Pete Hegseth is telling Russia & the world that every U.S. president & general has been lying about our military being the most lethal fighting force in history..Or he is telling the truth that the U.S. navy can’t match the Russian navy.
