Shocked, but gratified to see that 90 law professors at Harvard signed this letter denouncing the lawlessness of Trump’s attacks on equal protection and freedom of speech and affirming commitment to the rule of law (especially after its dean did not join in the prior letter stating similar things)

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

NEW: At least three more DOJ Public Integrity Unit senior officials have resigned after meeting with Emil Bove on the Eric Adams case. Five in Public Integrity overall.

That’s six officials who resigned, triple the number that happened during the Saturday Night Massacre.

I didn't realize that AG Bondi also flat out told Apple and Google that they were free to break the TikTok law—in writing! Nobody wants to point out amid the rest of the mess that presidents and AGs can't deliberately ignore statutes they don't like.
That's in this @stevevladeck.bsky.social piece.

In its totality what's happening at HHS & NIH is a Musk/Trump effort to shutdown almost all cancer cure research in the US. No more new cures. Cancer's brand is really in the dumps.

One enraging reaction to the LA fires I'm seeing is: All artists are rich/being an artist isn't a real job/they should have planned better/I'll reserve my sympathy for others. If you are doing this kind of sorting, no matter where on the political spectrum you are, please know that you are awful.
