Going to pitch a Cool Runnings sequel to Disney but it is just a 2 hour courtroom drama where Kari Lake disputes the Olympic bobsled results.

The way to stop being accused of being a partisan hack is to stop being a partisan hack.

I should first clarify some basic facts: — The Met Gala is a fundraising event that supports the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute. — The Costume Institute preserves historical garments, curates public exhibitions, and educates people on how clothing reflects and shapes culture.

Criticizing Israel and its behavior and policies, even very sharply, isn’t bigoted. Reflexively responding to any mention of Jews, Judaism, Jewish history or culture, or the Jewish community with demands to denounce Israel is absolutely bigoted and also unhinged.

Anyway, there's important work to do to improve our elections. Baseless, fanciful conspiracy theories about stolen elections distract from this. Want to help? One good way is to become a poll worker in your local jurisdiction.

It's been a weird couple of days here. In the middle of an interesting discussion of election security, I've found myself suddenly brigaded by a crew of vehement election deniers who've convinced themselves I'm the mastermind (or a useful idiot) in a conspiracy to deny Kamila Harris the Presidency.

Me: well at least things can't get any worse My Monkey's paw:

There are serious, exploitable vulnerabilities in the human body. For example, if you obstruct a person's breathing for just five minutes or so, they will die. All reputable physicians acknowledge this. However, this is not proof that you have been murdered. Same for election vulnerabilities.

NEW: U.S. District Judge Susan Brnovich has dismissed a DOJ lawsuit over Arizona’s voter rolls. Her ruling deals another blow to the Trump administration’s nationwide efforts to compel states to turn over full, unredacted lists of registered voters. Read: www.votebeat.org/arizona/2026...

BREAKING: A federal judge dismissed the DOJ’s case against my office. Arizonans’ personal identifying information is safe and I will continue doing everything in my power to protect your privacy.

Marc Elias can’t take credit for this one. Congrats to the AZ AGO.

The difference was Trump had a plan to get out of Vietnam.

Congressman Andy Biggs, or maybe someone on his staff, called my boss and tried to get me fired because I had the audacity to point out (to my 1k Twitter followers) his hypocrisy. He closed his offices during COVID, while demanding everything else remain open for the "economy."

Once again, Marc Elias ignores the work state AGs are doing and acts like his clients’ intervention in these cases was the deciding factor.

The projection is so strong with this one.

An upcoming Turning Point USA rally in Phoenix with President Donald Trump appears to be part of a larger effort by the conservative organization to collect voter data ahead of the 2026 election cycle.

NEW: Officials in several states agreed that the order would upend the way they do their jobs and be extremely challenging to implement. But it's unlikely to go into effect. As one official from Wisconsin put it: "The courts will strike it down faster than a cheetah on meth." ⬇️

Law school grades are predictive of lawyers' incomes. But Gabriele Plickert and I found that women with the highest grades earned LESS than lower-achieving men in private practice.

Women with an advanced degree are paid the same as men with just a bachelor's. And at every education level, women's hourly wages are about 20% lower than men's

@lawliberg.bsky.social for you, car into building, with added firepower.

Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

I have an election law joke but I can't recount it.

I have an election law joke, but it’s too close to the election to tell it.

Not gonna lie, "You don't read Seth Abramson? Guess you don't care about facts!" has made my day, and possibly my entire week. Not gonna say it can't be topped, but it's highly unlikely to be

HEY Y’ALL are you super mad about people being kidnapped and/or renditioned by the federal government, want to do something about it, but aren’t a lawyer? See below!

@beckerdavidj.bsky.social and @brahmresnik.bsky.social chat AZ election stuff.

SCOOP: Federal judiciary approves new Supreme Court defender office to help represent indigent defendants at #SCOTUS. Its full-time director will serve as a counterweight to the U.S. solicitor general in federal criminal cases. The first will be former Kagan clerk and SG atty Ashley Robertson.

As if the Nazi Bar that Twitter has become isn’t bad enough, I just had to update the app, and I’ve lost the ability to use it in dark mode. This may be the thing that gets me off of there for good.

I just sent this email to the news director at NBC4 Washington about the unprofessional and disrespectful way they handled publishing the body camera footage of the DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace that was obtained via my FOIA lawsuit:

Another fine piece of work from @lizdye.bsky.social, who I can always count on to keep up on Kari Lake news. But I must take exception to Liz’s suggestion at the end that Kari return to AZ and run for office again. She bought a place in IA, they can take back their daughter. AZ doesn’t want her.

Can’t say I’m the least bit saddened by Kari Lake finding new and different ways to lose.

To all those who are saying "I did not vote for this, this is not what I voted for when I voted for him!" - Yes, you did. Yes, you did. Yes, you did. We told you. We warned you. You didn't listen.

The judges in WV have seen enough. They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This is amazing.

Folks, this is talking about new durable medical equipment *suppliers*. They're putting a temporary moratorium on newly founded companies enrolling to receive payment from Medicare for selling durable medical equipment. All the old suppliers will still be open. Patients can still get new equipment.

Legal news and soul music, my two favorite things!

Congrats to the AZ AGs who worked on this one!

Don't look at the Court's correct ruling on tariffs and what I anticipate to be a correct striking down of the birthright citizenship executive order as evidence of a moderate Supreme Court. The Justice have done, and continue to do, lots of mischief, including accreting more power for themselves.

the AZ-GOP bills this session are like Charlie Kirk freeway, bring back firing squad, Charlie Kirk park, let ICE personally interrogate people at the polls, Charlie Kirk statue, ban mosques, Charlie Kirk vanity plate

This legislative session HB2022 moved the Primary Election date up by two weeks. This change impacts various other deadlines tied to the Primary date including but not limited to candidate filing, canvass, and provisional ballots curing. See all the updated dates at Arizona.Vote 📲

AZ angle — the expert here, Ryan Macias has served as an expert for the AZSOS and Maricopa County, including during Kari Lake’s election contest and the Fraudit. He’s the real deal.

WI poll worker checking in! Happy to report zero shenanigans so far in today's primary at my city's biggest polling place.

Jessica speaks the truth. I’ve been representing state and local election officials for 15-plus years. None of them will be violating their duty to carry out an election pursuant to state law and they will go to court if someone else (read Feds) tries to stop them.
