"Weeks of watching Florida insurance lawyer Lindsey Halligan flail around like a toddler trying to teach calculus should serve as a warning about the perils of crowdsourcing legal research to literal randos on the internet. *But it won’t.*" — @lizdye.bsky.social
Bill Pulte and Ed Martin's shitposting legal strategy

We all want to see peace in Ukraine, most of all the Ukrainian people.
But blackmailing innocent Ukrainians to appease Putin doesn’t promote peace — it only enables Russia’s aggression.
It is repulsive that this is coming from an American president.

"Attorneys have to parse the language"
Cowardly and dishonest Mike Johnson practiced *constitutional law* before going into politics. He was also the dean of a law school. (In fairness, the school never opened because it was named after a pedophile.)

The exodus of corrections officers from federal prisons to ICE comes amid shortages of critical supplies, from food to personal hygiene items, for both staff and inmates.
It threatens to make the already grim conditions in these prisons even worse.
