Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?

You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators.

So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.

Trump is saying that he will disregard Congress and issue an Excutive order that will violate the Constitution.

Here is my promise: If he does that, we will sue and we will win. Just like we did the last time. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump: ‘There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!’
"I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting an irrefutable one in the very near future," wrote Trump, who is not a lawyer.

One thing is clear—the justice system does not support victims or survivors. That’s why Members of Congress are working with Epstein survivors, not just for accountability and justice, but to create a system that believes, protects, and supports them.

Yesterday, the House passed the GOP’s new voter suppression legislation modeled on the SAVE Act.

Let’s be clear: This series of bills (which would end registration by mail and add new ID requirements that could prevent millions of eligible voters from registering) is unlikely to pass the Senate.

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

The right to vote is among the most sacred rights we possess. It is the source of all other rights, writes Damon Hewitt of @lawyerscomm.bsky.social.

As discriminatory barriers to the ballot box become more calculated, the need for bolder, stronger federal voting rights protections is long overdue.
Beyond Callais: We need new tools to uphold voting rights
Over 60 years of precedent and protection for voters of color, especially Black voters, could be upended and voided if SCOTUS fails to uphold the right to vote.
