We were warned about a prosecutor--or president--who might "pick people that he thinks he should get, rather than pick cases that need to be prosecuted."

@judgeluttig.bsky.social argues that *every* significant initiative of Trump’s first 100 days lacks legal authority. He concludes: "It would be impossible to say, after Donald Trump's first 100 days in office, that America has a government of laws, not of men."
