D.C.- based Attorney. Moving over here from Twitter, where I had a pseudonymous account, which means I probably won’t swear as much. Blocks a**holes with abandon.
100%, this.

Honestly, that sounds better than most of the events the FedSoc threw at my law school...

Amazing to me how much this movement aligns with a religious cult even more than a political movement.

Their editorial was hot garbage. And half of those people during the second impeachment were like, let the justice system handle it, but now are like, impeachment is the remedy!

Having a nationally known lawyer talk about this stuff is really meaningful for those in the profession, especially younger ones, who feel alone. I appreciate the openness.

Update: I received my gift card this morning - you get an email with a choice of physical card or e-card. I took the e-card and added to apple wallet.

My recurring nightmare is that somehow I sound like this to other lawyers and don’t realise it.

I just listened to your podcast with Charlie and thought, my, that Tom Nichols seems like a sharp fellow who can be forgiven for his, at times, questionable taste in music. But this would be something that might affect my parasocial relationship with you, Tom.

Sounds like an easy 8 billable to me.

Duke guy here living in DC, took NC bar over a decade ago. Also thought the VA kids were pulling my leg when cramming after graduation. I was in basketball shorts and a t shirt in NC because they made us all take it in the livestock building at the state fairgrounds which is hotter than hell in July

Yeah. It’s not much cash. Kind of seems “straw man-ish” though. I haven’t done the legal research, and that’s not my legal specialty- I’m more just doubting that the card will actually show up.

I couldn't help myself. I was curious to see if it's really going to happen, so I donated precisely $1. Probably cost him more in credit card fees than the donation.

I just tried to preemptively block them, and they didn't come up. I think that the bigoted jackass was removed.

Or just "Infected"

There's also the begging on social media to "support a comrade" with donations to buy stuff that most people buy for themselves.

That stuck out like a sore thumb.
