Update - the actual text of the EO seems to indicate that the “This mechanism shall include the use of private sector pro-bono assistance for such law enforcement officers” refers to legal representation (aka the private firms he strong armed) and will likely be used to protect bad cops.

The Sharks Circling the Boat From Marc | Donald Trump’s “flood the zone” strategy is designed to overwhelm us.

Today marks Trump's 100th day in office. Since Jan. 20, we've seen countless anti-democratic actions from the administration. Trump’s “flood the zone” strategy is designed to overwhelm, but we can’t lose focus or energy, @marcelias.bsky.social writes. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Its the first day of my life~

Law Firms Made Deals With Trump. Now He Wants More From Them. To avoid retribution, big firms agreed to provide free legal services for uncontroversial causes. To the White House, that could mean negotiating trade deals — or even defending the president and his ...

The only thing missing from the reporting is what Trump said to the heads of these law firms:

"Some day, and that day may never come, I'll call upon you to do a service for me."

Don’t shame people for not immediately reading all the books they buy. Some books aren’t made to be ready right away, okay? Some books need time to mature. Some books need to cure for a while. Some books are prosciutto, and don’t you forget it.

If the IRS deprives Harvard of its tax-exempt status, that's very bad for Harvard but it's also a catastrophe for the IRS. Instead of a neutral agency that enforces tax law, it will become a tool of partisan warfare. It may never recover.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

I’m really grateful Senator Van Hollen is in El Salvador rn, but ngl, if something happens to him I will feel a little guilty because he’s on the list of lawmakers I’ve been contacting weekly to ask to do something

I still think it’s really brave & the right thing to do & I’m glad he’s doing it

🚨BREAKING: Judge finds flying migrants to El Salvador after orders not to "demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt."

Legal residents getting kidnapped by plain clothes agents of the state for expressing their political opinions isn't something that happens in democratic countries.

This was 100% predictable (and predicted). The big firms that capitulated will cave and do whatever Trump wants. He owns them and will humiliate them for the next 3+ years.

If you are a lawyer at one of these firms, leave now with your dignity.

If you are a law student -- is this what you want?

Oregon isn't up here either. Disappointing.

I cried when I watched it in August... just a few days before my life shifted.

Great movie tho.

I really doubt it. Mine was changed in 2015...I expect it to be reverted soon. Thank god my state still allows name and gender changes on birth certs.

In my years of reporting on LGBTQ news this was by far the hardest.

But we are still here. You made it to Friday. You lived. Good job. That wasn’t easy.

Through a diversity of tactics, we will continue to live.

Rest up, drink water, find community, so that we can all be here tomorrow too.

Understanding and Responding to the Transgender Movement In recent decades, there has been an assault on the sexes. That is, there has been an attack on the previously undisputed

If you think that trans people are getting our rights ripped away "because the left went too far," you're a moron.
