An Attorney. A policy wonk. An IT geek. I love the APA. Dislike unmitigated negative externalities. Hate the destruction of the rule of law and dismantling of Democracy.
Not sure of the sourcing , but here’s a thought. Apparently, the Trump family made an entire replica of Trump Sr’s office & surrounding life as his dementia took control. It tamped his frustration and temper & allowed him live with the believe that he got his way on everything. La La La…

Entertaining & horrifying.
I’m not a criminal law litigator- anything close involves admin law (issues related to agency decision-making.) However, these mistakes appear clear even to me from an ETHICAL standpoint. I’m going to make the “Chick List” of govt attorneys who need to take the MPRE.

More remarkable findings by a federal judge about the lack of credibility of members of the current administration.....
THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.
I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

The Trump administration released a new rule aiming to block public servants from loan forgiveness based on ideology.
This is yet another alarming move to silence dissent and punish those who don't fall in line.
