If you are in-house counsel, it's important to let your outside firms know that their actions matter.

If they have stood up, tell them you appreciate it.

If they have been silent, tell them (politely) that this matters to you.

And if they have caved, tell them their services are no longer needed.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

This should be the demand of EVERY BAR ASSOCIATION in the United States. GOP attorney I know are outraged at all the calls for impeachment by judges stating the law honestly. Those calling for impeachment are engaging in pure fascism. Speak out Bar Associations!

Wyoming attorneys urge delegation to condemn attacks on federal judiciary
“Silence in the face of such threats from those with a duty to uphold the Constitution will be properly seen as complicity," the letter to the delegation said.

"First, there’s the Espionage Act, which sounds like it applies only to spies. But there’s a provision in the law that applies to the SignalGate chatters, even if they were all legally entitled to the information. That’s because they have a custodial duty to keep national security information safe."
All the laws flouted during SignalGate
Very illegal and very not cool.

When I was 17, I opened my first checking account w/a couple hundred bucks. I didn’t meet the min monthly deposit, so they kept charging fees until I owed them money. It stuck with me—I still won’t bank w/BofA.

There’s no upside to this move for anyone who isn’t rich—just cruelty for cruelty’s sake

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow.

Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand .

I was strolling along the beach, totally lost in thought, when the sky suddenly burst into these incredible colours at sunset. I was so captivated by the scene that I just had to capture it. It felt like a moment too beautiful not to share.

What do you think?

This is incredibly helpful if you’re not sure what to say when you call your Democratic senators:

Thank you so much, Jess.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

The House just voted that “each day for the remainder of the 119th Congress shall not constitute a calendar day for purposes of section 202 of the National Emergencies Act.” A day is not a day. Lewis Carroll, George Orwell, and Franz Kafka must all be chuckling — or weeping.

Did you know that the Republicans could’ve voted to end these tariffs?

Instead, they turned their back on the American people, showed their weakness and ceded their power. The Democrats presented a bill to vote on intervening in the emergency that legalized these tariffs.
