This is hysterical. From Dutch television.
Even the Dutch are calling out the regime over here for the blatant attack on our 1A, and the personal 1A attack on Jimmy Kimmel.
Enjoy this clip of Dutch comedian Lubach!

A come-to-Jesus moment for American lawyers, and for America's most important law firms.
This is it.
This is the moment you always imagined, where you told yourself you would do the right thing -- where you told yourself that your profession would stand up.

Law firms refuse to represent Trump opponents in the wake of his attacks
The result is an extraordinary threat to constitutional rights of due process and representation and a far weaker effort to challenge Trump’s actions in court than during his first term.

🧵 You might have noticed I haven’t announced my congressional campaign on any other platforms yet and that’s because I want to make a point:

How does one go about getting investor support for a pizza truck? I'm a poor, so the likelihood of me getting a bank loan for 35k is pretty much non-existent. I make some pretty killer pizza though!

In 24 hours we've gotten executive orders attempting to ban gender affirming care, ban recognition of trans youth in schools, ban trans employees in the federal government. It's a full on societal purge of trans people.
They meant it when they said they wanted to eradicate us.
