(next to an image of President Obama) “It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—the ordinary person who says, no, that's not right." PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

This order pauses to address defendants’ attempts to frustrate fact-finding. The defense submitted a single declaration, from defendant Charles Ezell, in opposition to plaintiffs’ motion for a TRO. The undersigned ordered defendant Ezell to appear for cross examination at the subsequent evidentiary hearing, or, alternatively, to submit to a deposition at his convenience. Plaintiffs were likewise ordered to make their declarants available for examination. Defendants chose to withdraw the Ezell declaration to avoid submitting its declarant to examination, in violation of this Court’s order. Defense counsel “understood coming out of the TRO hearing” that the undersigned “wanted to know what was actually communicated” during several phone calls between OPM and the relief defendant agencies (Dkt. No. 120). The purported reason to withdraw was that Ezell was not present at those calls, so his testimony “would have scant evidentiary value” anyway (Dkt. No. 75 at 12). The undersigned did not impose sanctions at the time, as it appeared defendants had righted a wrong they would not repeat.
Update on AFGE v. OPM (case in NDCal over OPM-directed terminations of probationary employees). Last week, Judge Alsup entered a PI. Govt. appealed & requested a stay. Judge yesterday denied the stay request, with some brutal language/warnings for the govt:

A D-Day veteran called a gracious and humbled Zelenskyy a hero.
Emmanuel Macron « @EmmanuelMacron There is an aggressor: Russia. There is a victim: Ukraine. We were right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago-and to keep doing so. By "we," I mean the Americans, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese, and many others. Thank you to all who have helped and continue to do so. And respect to those who have been fighting since the beginning— because they are fighting for their dignity, their independence, their children, and the security of Europe. 1:11 PM • 2/28/25 • 821K Views

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.
