Can't eat peppers, lettuce, or eggs without peeing from your butt or visiting the hospital.

It wasn't brown people or immigrants, but rather Trump and MAGA that turned America into a shithole country.

Make diarrhea explosive and great again. Well done.

This birthright ruling is why I just refuse to tolerate all the Democrat garment rending over NY voters choosing progressive candidates. They are incapable of governing in this moment. The politics of appeasement and centrism gets us to a 5-4 decision on the constitutional question.

this WILL be relegated to the dust bin of history. it will take time, it will take effort, and it will not be easy. but this sort of bigotry will age like fucking milk, and we will look back on it with the same contempt that we do other Supreme Court opinions that gleefully entrench inequality.
Clarence Thomas's concurring opinion in the trans sports ban case in West Virginia contains some of the ugliest transphobic stuff I have ever seen in a legal opinion. Straight-up gleeful. Vile man. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Political violence is always immoral and always counterproductive for a healthy democracy. It solves nothing. It only leads to further violence and ultimately enables scapegoating of vulnerable communities. Committing acts of violence against those who disagree with us helps no one.

Our lack of humanity is staggering
We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose.

“They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a 29-year-old in California wrote.
“I Have Lost Everything”: The Toll of Cities’ Homeless Sweeps
Cities often take belongings — including important documents and irreplaceable mementos — when they conduct sweeps of homeless encampments. ProPublica gave notecards to people across the country so…

American civil society is full of abject cowards, that is the issue. The government is a mafia state but it is winning because most American elite institutions are devoid of anything resembling integrity and are folding rather than stand on principles that were little more than marketing.

I hope a long list of prominent clients "fire" Paul, Weiss, and make a very public point of moving to a different law firm.
Trump rescinds his Executive Order targeting Paul, Weiss because the firm entered into an “agreement” with Trump.

According to the White House, Trump agreed to rescind after a meeting w/ Paul Weiss chairman Brad Karp, in which Karp “acknowledged the wrongdoing” of former partner Mark Pomerantz.

Dark hearts, selfishness and cruelty are where we are. I'm ashamed to be an American. Until the citizenry arises en masse, I will continue to do what I've always done my whole legal career - stand up for the poor and oppressed, and show up when called upon by my various communities w/shared values.

I think a lot of old power has become so deeply entrenched that it doesn’t think about who supports it any longer, and I think that’s all beginning to crumble.
