For Wolf Hall fans: PBS has a 3 part series on The Boleyn Family. We stumbled upon it the other night; fun stuff-- well, not for the Boleyns though.

In democratic states, time to bring state law violation charges whenever possible, to uphold the rule of law and prevent withdrawal of federal law prosecutions, and pardons.

I suspect that (1) the class action run around from the lying unethical partisan hacks supreme court decision banning nationwide injunctions will not succeed, and (2) birthright citizenship will be gone.

Law professor Steve Vladeck opines that the statute that permits appointment by district court of a prosecutor for contempt enforcement is contrary to current supreme court jurisprudence.

“Trump’s new Executive Order underscores how far removed this President, Attorney General and Administration are from our nation’s Constitution and bedrock values. Our liberties depend on lawyers’ willingness to represent unpopular people and causes, including in matters adverse to the Federal Government. An attack on lawyers who perform this work is inexcusable and despicable. Our profession owes every client zealous legal representation without fear of retribution, regardless of their political affiliation or ability to pay. We encourage law firm leaders to sign on to an amicus effort in support of Perkins Coie’s challenge to the Administration’s executive order targeting the firm, and to resist the Administration’s erosion of the rule of law.”

I submitted a complaint to OIG at SSA re: the Trump Musk coup and data breach. My bank's customer service rep read me over the phone a scripted statement about their cyber security and procedures blah blah blah. I'll be opening a new checking account for my SSA direct deposit.
