This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first.

Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.

If those of us who claim to want democracy to prevail, don’t stand up and fight this, then we should at least have the self-awareness to never say, “This is not who we are.”! 😡😡 Thank you @timmiller.bsky.social for demonstrating the moral outrage we should all be feeling.

Last week, House Democrats opposed giving Elon Musk and Trump a blank check funding bill that would allow them to gut programs and services families rely on.

The Senate must pass a short-term spending bill so we can pass bipartisan bills that protect programs for our communities.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
