“This,” because the referent immediately precedes the pronoun.

If my own words came between the argument and the pronoun, “that.” So, “Despite Defendant’s insistence, that argument . . .” [not trying to rewrite, don’t come for me again]

🧵 from the prof who taught me everything I know about intl trade law (which is probably less than he’d have hoped and more than I deserved)

Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope: "Oh, she says, well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And I'll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is — we're here on Earth to fart around And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And it's like we're not supposed to dance at all anymore."

Kurt Vonnegut man

We support the right of people to advance their interests in courts of law when they have been wronged. We reject the notion that the U.S. government can punish lawyers and law firms who represent certain clients or punish judges who rule certain ways. We cannot accept government actions that seek to twist the scales of justice in this manner. We reject efforts to undermine the courts and the profession. We will not stay silent in the face of efforts to remake the legal profession into something that rewards those who agree with the government and punishes those who do not. Words and actions matter. And the intimidating words and actions we have heard and seen must end. They are designed to cow our country’s judges, our country’s courts and our legal profession. There are clear choices facing our profession. We can choose to remain silent and allow these acts to continue or we can stand for the rule of law and the values we hold dear. We call upon the entire profession, including lawyers in private practice from Main Street to Wall Street, as well as those in corporations and who serve in elected positions, to speak out against intimidation.

More than 50 bar organizations stand together with the American Bar Association to defend the rule of law and reject efforts to undermine the courts and the legal profession. Read the full statement: www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

Read the whole thing. This isn't an unhinged warning by a critic about a dystopian future; it's what they actually want and think sounds awesome.

Congratulations to @universityofga.bsky.social School of Law students Dustin Batchelor, Grace K. Johnson, Marion Kronauge, Morgan Pfohl, and Ellis Schmitt for winning the East Coast regional of the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition.

"I RESPECT THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT!" yell the Democrats as they're being thrown into volcano. "DIGNIFIED DEMOCRATIC PRESENSE-E-E-E" a fading echo is heard as the last of them hit the magma below.

Here's a story that illustrates why primary sources are important & how Black history is whitewashed.

It involves a mass slave escape, Government-sponsored slut-shaming, my nomination for the Blackest name in history & the guy who discovered two words that might end racism.

A thread.

We speak today on behalf of the legal profession and its members who seek to live by the oath each took upon admission to the bar. We reject efforts to undermine the courts and the profession. We will not stay silent in the face of efforts to remake the legal profession into something that rewards those who agree with the government and punishes those who do not. Words and actions matter. And the intimidating words and actions we have heard must end. They are designed to cow our country’s judges, our country’s courts and our legal profession. These efforts cannot be sanctioned or normalized. There are clear choices facing our profession. We can choose to remain silent and allow these acts to continue or we can stand for the rule of law and the values we hold dear. We call upon the entire profession, including lawyers who serve in elected positions, to speak out against intimidation. We acknowledge that there are risks to standing up and addressing these important issues. But if the ABA and lawyers do not speak, who will speak for the organized bar? Who will speak for the judiciary? Who will protect our system of justice? If we don’t speak now, when will we speak? The American Bar Association has chosen to stand and speak. Now is the time for all of us to speak with one voice. We invite you to stand with us.

Nazi symbology is not just historical imagery—it’s a declaration of hate, violence, and genocide.

Every time it’s brushed off, it inches closer to normalization. We must call it out with clarity and conviction.

A Chat With Georgia's 50501 Movement Leader "Bri" doesn't want resistance to the Trump Administration to be about her. She wants it to be about you.

Organizers of the #50501 movement have another protest scheduled today at noon at the capitol in Atlanta. I spoke to one of them about what they're about, why they're not the 501c3 types, and what they're trying to accomplish.

Happy President's Day.

To dismiss Kendrick Lamar's halftime show as the squandering of a global platform in service of nursing a petty grievance is to miss the significance of exactly what he is saying. https://capitalbnews.org/kendrick-lamar-super-bowl-halftime-show/

We're seeing an exceptional level of interest in how ordinary people survive and fight back against authoritarianism. If you're a historian of (anti)fascism, oppression, survival and resistance, then know that a lot of people want to know about your work right now!
