It looked like a scene from Batman. The supposed leader of the free world buddying up to Nayib Bukele, President of El Salvador, who likes to be known as “the world’s coolest dictator.” The Oval Office looked warm and inviting; two friends catching up after too long. Juxtaposed with the bullying that took place when […]
I started this blog because I feared the worst: That judges, whom we hold in the highest regard as a country, as a Bar, as officers of the court, would purposely cave to the pressure of an unhinged executive whose only ambition seems to shred the Constitution in favor of a dictatorship. Thankfully, the opposite […]
Another week, another bully pulpit true to its name. Amidst the chaos of Unconstitutional deportations, funding freezes, and more, the Trump administration continues its attack on some of the most vulnerable among us: children. Specifically, Trans kids, who currently fear for their lives as the adults turn their backs on them, and as they become […]
Today, I shopped at Costco. Like many of us, I am new to the club; I joined when the Progressive stars aligned: Target showed its cowardice, pulling back on important DEI initiatives, and workers at King Soopers (my local grocery store) went on strike, alleging unfair labor practices. Employment lawyer moms don’t put up with […]
As Trump’s goons continue their attempt to intimidate the judiciary, the judges are fighting back. Actually, that’s not quite accurate. Judges don’t need to fight or even file claims. Judges simply rule. And yesterday, Chief Judge John J. McConnell, Jr. of the U.S. District Court of Rhode Island, ruled that his prior Temporary Restraining Order […]
Well, it’s finally happened. Our nation, great in no small part because of our Constitution, is in crisis because it’s fundamental values are under attack. Ever since Trump rode his golden escalator down to announce his foray into public life, this nation has been threatened by more than one moronic wannabe dictator. The threat comes […]
SPOILER ALERT: Musk continues to violate the Constitution; eggs are still expensive. Elon Musk is angry. Yesterday, another pesky federal judge ordered that he and his army of tech bro minions stay away from the highly confidential Treasury Department’s records. This order, another emergency Temporary Restraining Order and the second in one week to deal […]
Our federal judges continue to make us proud. Just in time for Super Bowl, they may be on the bench (see what I did there?) but they are most certainly in the game. With 85 executive actions so far, Trump, the President for the Billionaires, is papering the judiciary with a lot of ripe issues […]
Last night, a federal judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia temporarily blocked President Trump’s Executive Order attempting to forcefully relocate Transgender women prisoners into federal prisons and remove their access to medical care. Quick background: Trump signed an Executive Order on January 20, 2025 (yes, that was the first […]
Do you remember the 1993 film, Groundhog Day? Bill Murray stars as Phil Connors, a man who keeps experiencing the same day over and over and over again. I was only 12 when I saw the movie, and I absolutely hated it. I was bored and frustrated with the movie’s circular story. Little did I […]
