Letter from the Georgetown Energy Law Group withdrawing from a Skadden recruiting event, and explaining the reason for the cancellation: Skadden promising the Trump regime to end its DEI programming and give $100 million in free legal services to Trump-approved causes.

I could not be prouder of this Georgetown University Law Center student group. They were invited to an exclusive recruiting event with Skadden and withdrew because of Skadden’s preemptive capitulation to the Trump regime. Alanna, Caleb, and Carly were all students of mine.

Still waiting for an employment boom from polluting fossil fuels? The NY Times points out, "U.S. oil and gas production has hit record highs, but industry employment has fallen roughly 25 percent over the past decade." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/b...

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

Today in user-hostile design: A website’s security question was “What is your age?” In fine print, it said, “enter the age you were when you first registered.”

I’m not sure, but I think there is a better solution.

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Trump's Energy and Border Emergencies Advance His Own Interests Mr. Trump had the authority to declare two emergencies. But they also happened to advance his favorite targets: more fossil fuels and less immigration.

"But by any economic measure, the United States is not facing an energy emergency" www.nytimes.com/2025/01/22/c...

Project 2025 has a bullet that says, "End grid planning and focus instead on reliability."

During Winter Storm Elliot, gas generation was less than 50% of the capacity on the PJM grid but was responsible for over 70% of the failures. Not putting more eggs in that basket seems like a good start.
