"Eliminating lawyers as the guardians of the rule of law removes a major impediment to the path to more power"
- Judge Beryl E. Howard

Thank you for upholding the rule of law and thank you Perkins Coie for fighting the EO!

Happy National Law Day. Thank you to all the lawyers across this nation who are reaffirming their oaths today.

Law Day
The Constitution enshrines our collective responsibility to one another, and the 2025 Law Day theme urges us to take pride in a Constitution that bridges our differences to bring us together as a unit...

"Immigration - with all its struggles is the secret sauce that makes America great, always."

True words from @jbpritzker.bsky.social. Thank you for helping to fight for the rule of law.

"There is a time when we all are called to stand for the full and fair administration of justice and the rule of law,"

"For those of us who have served in the Office of the United States Attorney and still have a breath, that time is now."

Thank you for standing up for the rule if law.

I've only been in the U.S. Senate for a few months but I'm doing everything I can to fight back against this administration.

Now is not the time to sit on the sidelines. We need everyone to be in this fight for the rule of law, our families, and our future.

You and me both but us "non-lawyers" a/k/a successful business professionals can make a difference and more of us are being fighting for the rule of law than those with law degrees! AmLaw 200, I continue to ask. Where are you?
I wish I was a lawyer right now. What an amazing time to fight against oppression and for the rule of law.

RETWEET if you stand with Judge Hannah Dugan!
April 26, 2025 at 8:27 PM
A question we all have to ask ourselves. I will continue to stand on the side of the rule of law and with those who protect and guard it.
For the people celebrating the weaponized arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan by the trump administration because "she broke the law," just remember that it also used to be against the law to hide folks like Anne Frank.

What side of history are YOU on?

The Trump Administration is openly taking pages directly from the dictator playbook.

Disappearing people for political speech. Attacking universities and law firms. Defying the courts. And now, arresting judges.

The Constitutional Crisis is here. Judge Dugan's arrest must be expunged.

The attacks on the rule of law just escalated.
Judge Hannah Dugan, the Wisconsin judge who was arrested on Friday morning on charges of obstructing immigration enforcement, spent most of her legal career working on behalf of low-income people and marginalized groups. Here's what to know.

So much for HIPAA protections.

Law firms - This is an example of the innocent people that will suffer if you do not stand up for the Rule of Law. Do any of you have autism in your family?
First RFK Jr says that people on the autism spectrum are useless eaters. And then he announces that the government is going to make a list of them, a “registry.”

Law firms who caved and kissed the ring now receiving a letter from a handful of congress members explaining the laws they have violated...... I thought it was the law firms who usually sent these letter to members of congress.

Q: "Is this a fight you can win?"
A: "I don't know the answer to that question but the stakes are too high not to fight"

Thank you @harvard.edu President for speaking truth.

Legal industry why don't you understand this?
