This is a very serious problem. If you want the judiciary to continue being a check on the federal government, any policy targeting plaintiffs’ lawyers must be prohibited.
Otherwise cases will be dropped before a judge has a chance to issue an order.

This is problematic & weaponizes sanctions against attorneys litigating against the federal government.
I’ve had attorneys try to use sanctions as an intimidation tactic under the guise that my clients’ lawsuits are frivolous. I fought back and won each time.

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.

10 days ago Trump fired hundreds of FAA employees, weakening the systems air traffic controllers rely on.
Maybe instead of handing Elon a $2 billion FAA contract, we should use that money to actually hire and retain the workers who keep our skies safe.
Just a thought.

These strangers think it’s okay to come on my page and laugh at my fundraisers, then block me so I can’t see who did it.
If they think education, leukemia research, suicide prevention, and supporting LGBTQI youth is funny, then I’m sure they won’t mind me sharing their reactions.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

Trump is offering all federal workers a buyout with seven months’ pay to shrink the government—but that’s not the whole story. Reports reveal some employees are being pressured to resign or face termination under the guise of organizational restructuring. In short: take the buyout or be fired.
