We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

This is the video that Hegseth thinks is worth court martialing Mark Kelly over. You tell me. Is this seditious?

It's a fun time at #NoKings

This will be quite a match-up: Trump's personal attorney who has never tried a case vs former Chicago U.S. Attny Fitzgerald who among other things "went after the Gambino crime family, al-Qaida and even the White House in court — not to mention several Illinois politicians"

Read every word of this.

Millions of Californians can now be profiled by the color of their skin and the language they speak, thanks to the Supreme Court.

This is not the slippery slope. We are already on the slide towards dictatorship.

1/ If you are feeling overwhelmed by the fast paced of legal news, remember that it’s deliberate. It’s a strategy Trump uses, flooding the zone in hopes that people will tune out. Read what you need to know here to get ready for the week: joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

Will the C.D.C. Survive?

Trump & Kennedy, instead of attacking diseases are attacking the scientists who keep us safe, exactly what anyone who watched Trump’s performance during Covid, is familiar with Kennedy’s anti-science views, or read Project 2025 could have anticipated. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/h...

Maybe ICE shouldn’t have lowered their standards for new recruits.

Disgraceful.

Donate now to give workers a voice in Washington! I’m personally asking: Will you chip in now to help me win in Ohio, flip this Senate seat, and fight the corporate special interests stacking the deck against us all?

If we're going to win this race, I need you with me. Election experts have already upgraded our chances, but I don’t have a bunch of billionaire friends or corporate interests bankrolling me. I need you.

Please make a donation to help us flip this seat:

PICU/NICU RN here👋🏼

The American Academy of Pediatrics just said it will continue to recommend its own childhood vaccine schedule regardless of what RFK Jr's AICP recommends.

This is leadership. 🫡

A female democratic representative was killed in Minnesota today by someone impersonating a cop. Turns out the threat to women's safety isn't trans women identifying as woman, it's men identifying as cops.

Examining the inaccurate reproductive health messaging of crisis pregnancy centers: A comparative qualitative study Objectives Given the prevalence of inaccurate or misleading health messaging linked to crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) in the literature, we sought to understand what role, if any, standardized traini...

🚨New Pub Alert!🚨

PLOS One has just released our latest article on Crisis Pregnancy Centers and their role in spreading reproductive health misinformation. In this Open Access research paper, my co-authors and I analyze staff interviews and training materials to understand the spread of misinfo. 🧵

Quote from Obergefell V. Hodges (576 U.S. 644). "“No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death. It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves. Their hope is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization’s oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right.”

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows:

An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

It only took 95 days to get to “arresting federal judges for defending due process.”

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

CDC Staff Prohibited From Co-Authoring Papers With World Health Organization Personnel It’s just the latest “Orwellian” crackdown on government scientists.

I don’t even know how this could be presented as being in service of anything other than hindering scientific progress.

Trump and Vance would NEVER, EVER, talk to Putin like that.

And everyone knows it.

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

Lawyers, this is what it looks like to honor your oath as a lawyer and as a prosecutor. I want to lift up Denise Cheung, one of a growing group of senior DOJ lawyers who have put the rule of law ahead of politics & short-term career advancement. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...
