Every accusation is a confession. Every. Damn. Time.

Sounds desperate. Even more so than usual.

This is not law. It couldn’t withstand legal scrutiny.

Don’t comply in advance university presidents. General counsel, don’t panic. Do law, not vibes.

I give them my best mom "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed" look.

ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Vaccines are life saving. The individual & public health benefit outweighs the risk more than nearly any other approved drug/med procedure.

Example: Tylenol is responsible for more deaths & hospitalizations than all vaccines combined.

#RFKJr made $Ms off of telling people otherwise.

It's not even remotely subtle. People are so easily manipulated, it's painful to watch.

I officially scrolled to the end of TikTok. @momchats.bsky.social your farewell video was the last one that loaded. Thanks for playing me out!

SOOOO much colder. Pretty sure I only survived because one of my smarter friends brought some of those chemical hand warmers. I put them in my shoes, pockets, and gloves. My dumb self didn't even bring a hat 🥶

I'm a capital defense/habeas lawyer and sat on a jury for a homicide trial in DC. You just never know.

Just arrived here and appreciate this so much!
