🚨 Indiana's Lt. Governor is spreading dangerous, theocratic hate during #PrideMonth — comparing LGBTQ+ people to a "rainbow beast" and calling equality a "pagan conquest."

This isn’t “family values.” It’s Christian nationalism at war with reality and basic human decency.

1. A transgender woman let legislators know she intended to use the bathroom in the Florida Capitol.

A contingent of officers waited for her, and stood outside the door.

When she stepped in, she was arrested and sent to a men's jail.

I can't watch this and say nothing. The arrest of people lawfully here because of things they have said is nothing short of creating a new class of political prisoners.

Then sweeping them away to Louisiana to evade the rule of law is atrocious.

We cannot stay silent.

Even if you think Paul Weiss and Columbia made the only choice available to them in the circumstances (and that's not what I think, to be clear), you have to recognize that there's no future for our democracy if every powerful institution approaches official extortion in this way.

Do you get it yet, law firms?

What’s happening isn’t an isolated threat to Paul Weiss or Covington or Perkins Coie.

It’s an existential threat to the independence of the legal profession.

You’re a fool if you think you won’t be next.

Say something. Do something.

It’s a long “memorandum,” but it’s essentially telling Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem to go after lawyers who challenge the federal government — which is many lawyer’s jobs.

It’s basically a catch-all “let’s Paul Weiss whoever pisses us off” memo.

This will be Paul Weiss' most enduring shame. Performatively denouncing an honorable man and a former partner in order to please an autocrat.

"Paul Weiss has acknowledged the wrongdoing of its former partner Mark Pomerantz."

Love to see Governor Patrick Bateman destroy his political future via his dumb podcast. Lol.
