Agree. Completely agree.

Oh.

Martin O'Malley just mentioned state attorneys general filing state kidnapping charges. Just imagine the collective cheer in this country if state troopers pulled over, arrested and cuffed a van full of masked ICE fascists.

Constitutional crisis.

Every morning I pray for the US to ratify the Rome Statute so we can start throwing these demoniacs behind the bars they’ve built for others. 😤

Manipulation Day, amirite?

That was quick.

Building on the astute analyses by @karenattiah.bsky.social and @adamserwer.bsky.social in my debut post for the @lpeblog.bsky.social on the Trump Administration’s assault on Black federal workers today, which calls upon us to consider that peonage may be the point: lpeproject.org/blog/racial-...

Never ever miss a chance to read @marissaesque.bsky.social and here’s a great one about racial capitalism in the present moment.

Today, @marissaesque.bsky.social argues that Trump's assault on federal workers is part of a broader effort to demolish the the bargaining power of Black workers.

Great piece in @lpeblog.bsky.social by @marissaesque.bsky.social on racism behind the administration's attack on federal workers. "Federal government jobs have long been responsible for the creation and maintenance of the Black American middle class." Check it out! lpeproject.org/blog/racial-...

It’s giving 1929.

Screaming.

Kamala Harris and Barack Obama owe y’all NOTHING.

Cuomo has 100% name id & a terrible disgraced corrupted brand. In the next few months you will necessarily see the current and non corrupted elected leaders spending their campaign money to raise their profile and win one of your five slots. Make sure you are listening and tell everyone you know.

The next part of my project on social murder is now forthcoming in the Maryland Law Review. Abstract and outline available on SSRN. Full draft coming later this Spring.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

There is no ambiguity about this. You can be elected president twice. It is universally agreed upon. You cannot run a third time.

No news organization should ever use the words "third term" without the word "unconstitutional" preceding it

Forthcoming, Volume 85 of the Washington and Lee Law Review 🙏🏾

I’m emotionally exhausted, y’all. The destruction is overwhelming and soul-sucking.

That’s a good word from the Lord!

Thread: Alien Enemies Act hearing 🚨

ACLU atty says that unless there's a review process, "anyone could be taken off the street." He adds that the plaintiffs see another question: whether the proclamation itself is reviewable by the courts; he says it is

*stares in contracts professor* Someone please sue for discharge of the loans, please! I wanna see something!

And he means it, too.

I want to hear from Ted Wells (Paul, Weiss). Hard for me to believe that he’d be going for this, or even willing to tolerate it (but I’m prepared to be gravely disappointed).

All of this!

www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u... How can Paul, Weiss ever be trusted to properly represent its clients again?! This is horrifying, and a huge strategic mistake as well.

Deeply, deeply concerning. May I ask my American friends to consider making conferences hybrid as a rule. www.lbc.co.uk/world-news/d...

Imagine if Kamala Harris was the POTUS right now and we could focus on being outraged about whether or not she’s sufficiently Black or some other mundane macro aggressive shit that’s none of our business while eating a 3-egg omelette, and respecting Canadian sovereignty. Just imagine!

GET HIM OUT OF THERE.

We can do better than this! Let’s get it down by 90%!

So, this is human trafficking.

Get her out of there!

Living for this right now!

CHUCK MUST GO.

Columbia and Johns Hopkins. Read another way, that’s Harlem/Wash Heights and Baltimore. I don’t believe that’s coincidental.

I think the Democratic Party has died, and I think we should bury it instead of letting the rotting corpse stink up the place. Working Families Party? Where you at? Your time is now.

There are many Democrats who don’t agree with some or many of AOC’s policy ideas. But what she gets and more conventional Democrats do not is that political fight can be catalyzing and transformative. You can change the shape of the playing board in ways … www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/p...

Schumer’s betrayal is proving as galvanizing/clarifying/unifying to the Democratic electorate as Trump’s betrayal is to our erstwhile foreign allies

In the latest assault on First Amendment rights, Columbia University has expelled and fired Grant Miner, President of UAW Local 2710, which represents thousands of Columbia student workers. The firing comes one day before contract negotiations were set to open with the University.

F*** Ch***.

A Statement on Recent Events lpeproject.org/blog/stateme...

Has anyone explained to the President that champagne cannot be made in the USA? I don’t think he knows.

We’re all being reminded that the Senate is, and was designed to be, an anti-democratic institution that tempers/stalls/undermines the work of the House of Representatives.
