I may be the only lawyer targeted by Trump willing to speak on camera, but for me it wasn't a choice. All of us have an obligation to speak out against what Trump is doing. All of us have an obligation to fight for democracy. I am fortunate to be a lawyer and to have a platform -- and I will use it.

The Biden administration made nearly 4 million more workers eligible for overtime pay.
But if Trump doesn't defend this rule by a May 6 court deadline, those workers will lose their much needed raises.
Time for the self-proclaimed "pro-worker president" to put up or shut up.

From an orphaned calf found sleeping beneath a tree in 2004, to a mother of three living wild in the wilderness from whence she came. Lualeni’s journey since her rescue is as profound as her success as a wild-living mother. Her latest addition is her first male calf, who we’ve named Luki.

Maybe democratic leaders need to make it clear now: if you’re a nation that engaged in absolute corruption with the Trump family, you will absolutely pay a price when he is out of office.

There's probably always some of this anti-feminist machismo in every iteration of fascism, but it's fascinating how the rise of man-o-sphere and incel culture as conspiracy riddled offshoots of right-wing politics has made "feminization" fears so central to the current version.
he goes on and on about the “feminization” of society and a “maternal surveillance system” and it’s like, are you mad your mom told you to clean your room once?
