In response to the shooting of Alex Pretti and the events over the past week's in Minneapolis, we are calling on all lawyers to defend the Constitution.

People's Constitutional rights are being taken away in Minnesota. It is time for lawyers to stand up and say stop.

Anyway, this seem like a good time as any to remind everyone that @glowlaw.org, of which I'm president, is looking for lawyers/law students volunteers to document and research misconduct by government lawyers.

Todd Blanche said there was "no basis" for investigation. Harmeet Dhillon decided not to pursue this.
We should never forget this. Accountability must come to all involved in this cover-up.
Very legally significant.

I am going to avoid the gory details in these texts.

NYT also reporting: "Two of the gunshot wounds were not immediately life-threatening, the autopsy found." It appears to be bullet that appeared to go through the left-side window that was.

This post prompted us to do something. Today, you can find the said list at glowlaw.org.
If you are a lawyer or a law student - we need your help to maintain and expand the list. Please email us if interested at [email protected]

"Ms. Halligan’s insistence on including 'United States Attorney' in her signature block exhibits disrespect not just for this
Court, but also flaunts the Rule of Law more broadly. It also self-evidently manifests noncompliance with Judge Currie’s Orders."

We may or may not be looking for someone to take on full time position solely dedicated to updating Lindsey Halligan's profile on our database.

If you are a lawyer, webdev, or (if you're really good at it) law student, consider joining up with @glowlaw.org, which needs volunteers to help document violations of professional legal ethics by US Executive Branch lawyers.

It's serious work, and it's focused on *verifiable* abuses.
"ellie, have you done anything to resist personally besides posting" not much no! and I'm honest about that! we'll see what happens if/when the fuckers descend on Seattle, I have my reasons for personal caution but the least I can do is recognize and appreciate the people who *are* fighting@

Any DoJ attorney who participates in this investigation should suffer professional and social shunning that makes it effectively impossible to continue to work as an attorney.

Renee Good was alive when a physician bystander asked to assist her, and ICE agents prevented him from doing so.

Harmeet Dhillon decided NOT to investigate the shooting.

Todd Blanche said there was "no basis" to start an investigation.

Jerome Powell is the latest of Trump’s perceived enemies to be investigated by the DOJ.

Ed Martin is the “chief enforcer” behind these attacks – he’s reportedly destroying records related to his work.

We just expanded our lawsuit for his records.

New York Bar - you are in a position to do something about it. We will be documenting not only the ethical failures of lawyers like Blanche, but also the failures of the lawyers in bar associations whose job is to hold people like Blanche to account.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche calls what is happening in Minneapolis an “insurrection” and threatens to go after Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey over their “terrorism.”
