Two months ago I wrote about why my law firm is litigating 63 voting and election cases. Today it is 65 cases covering more than half the country. Eleven of them involve redistricting.

Where are the big law firms? Why isn't legacy media covering this? www.democracydocket.com/opinion/why-...

This administration is filled with the absolute dumbest, meanest, cruelest pieces of shit.

And they're so *proud* to be dumb, mean, cruel pieces of shit too. They delight in it. They brag about it.

It's vice signaling as a way of life.
I assume she means everyone who isn’t white.

pretty remarkable that Costco has more of a spine in fighting for the rule of law than many major universities and fancy law firms

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

The Gallup poll is a disaster for Trump. Nixon is the only president with a worse net approval at this point in a second term than he has.

No second-term presidency’s net approval has risen more than 5 points from this point through the midterms.

Quoting “officials” is an excuse to lie for Trump and everyone at the NYT knows that.

After days of denying the story as “fake news,” now Karoline Leavitt says OF COURSE they ordered a second strike, and it was very legal and very cool, and they found an Admiral to take the fall to protect Trump and Hegseth. I hope Admiral Bradley is lawyering up.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:

In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.

In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

talking to reporters last night, Trump claimed of Hegseth's double tap strike that "I don't know anything about it," then moments later claimed "I don't who you're talking about" when asked his plan to pardon the former Honduran president

Dear Senator Cassidy,

“We” didn’t. WE didn’t pardon anyone. HE did. The President of the United States pardoned him. Come on Bill, say his name. Who’s our president? Say his name.

Best,

Your Former Congressional Colleague

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

President Hernandez was responsible for smuggling 500 TONS of cocaine into the United States! He was the top dog; the Pablo Escobar figure! He wasn’t just “selling drugs in that country.”
Reporter: You have made so clear how you want to keep drugs out of the US—

Trump: Right

Reporter: Can you explain why you would pardon a notorious drug trafficker?

Trump: If somebody sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president

Indiana Republican state senator. I appreciate her not caving, but they are all still afraid to ever use Trump’s name. I guess doing so exponentially increases the threats. Trump rules the GOP with fear and intimidation. What a broken party.
