Lawyer. I make up songs about my dog and sing them to her. Sometimes I run into things.

Seen some folks asking about lawyers who help federal employees so:

1. obviously, you can call us. we'll try to fit you in considering ~everything~

2. go to MWELA.org. that's the plaintiff's employment bar association in the DMV. go to NELA.org nationally. search for lawyers who do federal work.
CONGRATS to my husband and law partner, @joshuaerlich.bsky.social for being named Lawyer of the Year by the Metropolitan Washington Employment Lawyers Association.

Guys, this man works so hard and cares so much. Well deserved and could not be more proud.

Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.
CBP didn’t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old.

it really can't be said enough that this is a person who has dined with the president of the united states
Fuentes then fantasizes about “breeding gulags”: “So just like Hitler imprisoned Gypsies, Jews, communists, you know, all of his political rivals, we have to do the same thing with women… They go to the breeding gulags. The good ones will be liberated. The bad ones will toil in the mines forever.”

Hold on murderous robber let me go to my wall and grab my antique knife. It's shaped like brass knuckles so give me a minute.

Yes, yes. I know.

You "don't remember inviting me";

You "never even implied" this was a costume party; and

The song I'm singing "isn't a song";

I get it.

Thanks, Judge.

Looking for a keyboard for myself - a person used to playing a piano.

It would live in an apartment with space for something relatively substantial, but not absurd.

I would like it to be on the nicer end of "good," but again - not absurd.

I'd like a piano "feel" and sound.

Suggestions?

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.

It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.

Just wow.

Bookmarking the fact that Bondi yelled "Don't you ever accuse me of a crime" at the hearing today.

Just a hunch that we'll want to revisit that audio at a later date.

Jayapal: To the survivors in the room, if you are willing, please stand. And if you are willing, please raise your hands. If you have still not been able to meet with this DOJ. Please note for the record that every single survivor has raised their hand.

My labrador was personally offended by that Ring ad.
That Ring “search party” ad was unsubtle enough that even my 10yo watched it and was like “are they gonna use this for ICE?”

So manipulative!

Help us spy on you and your neighbors! Unless you hate dogs...
