Actually, lawyer and client should come up with all the options together and then the lawyer can help define the risks with each option. A good lawyer will not just articulate the legal risks, but also maybe reputational and moral risks. And, the best lawyers will help you take smart risks.

Too bad @durbin.senate.gov doesnβt answer his phones or open up his voicemail. Itβs almost like he doesnβt want to hear from his constituents. π€¨

But Warner voted no. Itβs because Warner is up for reelection in 2026 while Kaine not until 2030.

Liars. Protecting the filibuster because eventually thatβs what Republicans would have had to do to break the stalemate. Weaksauce - all of them.

Donβt believe it unless you take action to oust Schumer. Otherwise, just looks like the caucus worked together to pick the least vulnerable Dems at the next election cycle to give you all cover. Enough with the empty rhetoric.

π― He looked like he was being propped up at the No Kings rally. My household is *directly* impacted by the shutdown and I am furious at his vote. And the fact that as a constituent I canβt get through on any of his phone lines (per usual with him) is despicable.
