This week off to a good start on separation of powers litigation
Says a person who has never gone grocery shopping
Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:
“no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
Happening everywhere: older Americans are coming out to rallies and marches more than anyone. They know what freedom means, don't take it for granted, and want to save their kids & grandkids from tyranny. Civics education for generations X, Millennial, and Z has been an utter failure.
Well... the authors of the Constitution did not provide for the direct election of the President. In fact, they probably did fear that people could be this stupid.
This Saturday, 4/19, is the 250th anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord -- the first major military campaign of the American Revolution
Americans will mark that anniversary with thousands of "No Kings" rallies all over the USA

Based on photos and reports from Chicago and Milwaukee, not a lot of students or young people at the protests. If students mobilize and labor strikes, we can take the country back.
Proud to put my firm's name on the amicus brief of 504 Law Firms in the Perkins Coie litigation. Huge credit due to Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP for putting it together - that is how you fight with courage

This is how it's done.
A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge.
This is how to guard the rule of law.
Here is from this year's FAFSA, asking for sex at "conception," when we are all female. This is what it's like to live under an autocracy run by stupid people
I49% drop in China - concerns about resale value? Or does the population have stronger democratic aspirations than we have adherence to democratic values??
Even under oligarchy, the People-together-have economic power.
Keep this up
This #generalstrike is what I've been saying for the past 6 weeks, since they unconstitutionally dismantled USAID 👏
Lower, People. Keep mobilizing. This needs to go to bankruptcy.
