so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

I’m not sure how many times this has to happen for people to get it.
Not gonna pretend like I know anything about Carney’s politics because I don’t, but I watched his speech yesterday and he essentially told Trump to fuck off and now Trump’s speaking about him with a modicum of respect.
I feel like there’s a lesson in there somewhere.

If a 78-year-old George W. Bush appointee can school DOJ and DOD on anti-trans discrimination, maybe we should expand our definition of what’s possible — and then act on it.
Judge Benjamin Settle, a George W. Bush appointee to the federal bench born in 1947, had this to say to the Trump administration tonight about its defense of its anti-trans military ban: www.lawdork.com/i/159798593/...

Today’s bonus issue of “One First” uses Tuesday’s executive order on elections to illustrate what a President can (and, as importantly, *can’t*) do through an executive order—and how major media organizations should do better in reporting on them:

Bonus 134: What Executive Orders Can (and Can't) Do
President Trump's ominous new executive order on election administration is constrained by the limits on what an executive order can directly accomplish, especially outside of the executive branch.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
