Timeline cleanse: this has been an amazing stretch of ski conditions in the northeast. Usually it’s snow, thaw, freeze, rinse repeat. Lots of beautiful bluebird days with minimal ice to be had over the last couple of weeks. And Gore Mountain rocks!

“…the president of the United States is the leader of the free world. And you cannot envision NATO without the leader of the free world being an integral part of that organization.”
Leader of the free world? Minneapolis would like a word. Mark Rutte needs to expand his imagination in a hurry.

Can anyone explain to my why a Nazi “protest” in downtown Minneapolis that drew a total of 4 people got national news coverage? Let’s not platform or promote these losers.

This is exactly it. If our rights are conditional based on who is in the White House, then we don’t have rights at all.

The NYT headline implies Trump is taking a risk with a payout that could justify it.The reality is he and his clown show advisors are just gambling, and the game is rigged for the house. “Welcome to trump’s great depression” would be more accurate. As for our congressional reps, #ResistOrResign

As the great Sherrilyn Ifil points out, the same authoritarian playbook was used against CR lawyers in the 50s and 60s. They kept coming. Law firms & senators mewling about personal threats need to find their courage or step down. 👀 at u @schumer.senate.gov.

![And we must never forget that local civil rights lawyers themselves were targeted during this period as well. Some were subjected to (unsuccessful) disbarment actions. Others, like Lou Redding who litigated the Delaware Brown case, were (unsuccessfully) targeted by the IRS. There were also violent attacks on local lawyers. The home of Birmingham attorney Arthur Shores was bombed twice in 1963 in retaliation for his participation in school desegregation litigation with the Legal Defense Fund.[viii] And attorney C.B. King was brutally clubbed by a southern sheriff in Albany, Georgia in 1962 when he arrived at a local jail to see his client who had been arrested for protesting.[ix]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qngeqgynh6wsguul2shzjbgh/bafkreic3gl32pxldj6uchbgqgm5vznxpu7ffxhfaa2ctuoxy5azk2ugmha@jpeg)

This blew me away and put to words the crazy fever dream, uncertainty, and yes, love as well that is swirling around me. Perhaps it will resonate with you too. Thanks to Anne Lamott and my friend Erin ❤️
