Here you have it—an ALL NEW @talkingfeds.bsky.social w/ @mimirocah1.bsky.social @tarasetmayer.bsky.social & @jacobweisberg.bsky.social. We dig into the DOJ’s latest humiliations, the furor over Caribbean strikes, & Trump’s racist outburst—and ask why the country stays so quiet. bit.ly/StrikeTF

BREAKING: We won! 3rd Circuit affirms illegality of Habba appointment We @democracydefendersfund.org are honored to work on this case with the wonderful folks at Lowell & Associates, Gerald Krovatin & many others 👇

Terrific discussion between @dahlialithwick.bsky.social Dahlia Lithwick and @mimirocah1.bsky.social on a variety of subects surrounding the mess that is our current DOJ, and the fallout from that mess. Highly recommend. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

New from me in @theatlantic.com : Trump is learning that although it's easy to convict someone in a social media rant, when you get into the courtroom things are a bit more complicated. The criminal justice system is standing up to Trump. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

This is good 👏👇

The latest on Substack from @mimirocah1.bsky.social: "This was not 'merely' a directive to investigate political opponents (Democrats), but a (not so subtle) implicit warning to ignore Trump’s involvement."

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

My latest for @contrariannews.org

“The greatest risk of putting the tenure of all federal employees at the whim of the president is not that he will fire them all; it’s that people like Ms. Comey will not seek out the work in the first place” by Toobin www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/o...

Have witnessed Joyce pour her heart and soul into this. I cannot wait to read it!

Last night on @lauracoates.com: Bondi’s attack dog approach to her testimony while not surprising is beneath the office she holds. And again - no mention of survivors or victims the very people DOJ is supposed to protect.

New (& important) from @dahlialithwick.bsky.social @mimirocah1.bsky.social Rachel Foster & me slate.com/news-and-pol...

I don’t understand the supposed legal basis for this. DOJ requested a summons—*not* an arrest warrant—under Rule 9 of the FRCrP. Are they going to go back to the magistrate and ask for a warrant, even though Comey hasn’t failed to appear? If not, what’s the exigency for a warrantless arrest?

Working on a new book, “The Fix: Saving America from the Corruption of a Mob-Style Government.” Drawing from my experience as a prosecutor, the book offers ideas to take back our democracy and a vision for the future. Available June 9, 2026. Here’s the cover. What do you think?

Today seems like a good day to announce that I am writing a book! About? The assault on our system of justice. It’s more important than ever to lift up the stories of courageous lawyers standing up & doing the right thing (& to talk about those who aren’t). Fall 2026 with @harpercollins.bsky.social

The fundamental underpinning of democracy, which we spread around the world, is an apolitical, independent criminal justice system. James Comey’s case is a joke that will never stick. But the damage Trump is doing to the rule of law will leave a lasting stain.

Erik Siebert’s resignation emphasizes Trump’s feverish pursuit of becoming dictator-in-chief. Mimi Rocah examines his reliance on Pam Bondi and his plans to expedite the hiring of loyalists across government.

Survivors of the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell respond to FBI director Patel’s testimony:

“The politically motivated termination of Ms. Comey…upends bedrock principles of our democracy & justice system…. AUSAs like Ms. Comey must do their jobs without fearing or favoring any political party or perspective, guided solely by the law, the facts & the pursuit of justice.”

Exactly.

I’m proud to announce that Vol. 1 of Hidden Voices: Jewish Americans in U.S. History is now available for *free* for K-12 educators EVERYWHERE to integrate into their social studies/US history teaching. Grateful to the many who contributed, now LET’S USE IT! www.weteachnyc.org/resources/re...

Anyway in addition to teaching the law maybe elite legal institutions should also focus on teaching aspiring lawyers not to be morally bankrupt

My latest for @msnbc.com after yesterdays powerful gathering of Epstein/Maxwell survivors organized by @rachelfoster.bsky.social @laurenhershey.bsky.social www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

This #epstein press conference where survivors are speaking is incredible. The unity & power of this group of women (and their families) is so moving.

My latest for @cafedotcom.bsky.social staytuned.substack.com/p/listen-to-...

Tomorrow 930 am Washington DC survivors speak. That is who we should all be listening to.

"In any semi-normal time, the Justice Department would acknowledge that Maxwell’s denial of her own conduct proved at trial means she has zero credibility…But credibility and truth were clearly not the goals of this so-called proffer.” ✍️ @mimirocah1.bsky.social

I talk about one of the most revealing exchanges between Blanche and Maxwell in my latest for the @contrariannews.org

Reposting this in light of news Acosta will be questioned by House Committee. There are lots of questions that need answering. www.nbcnews.com/think/amp/nc...

Exactly this @asharangappa.bsky.social

Maxwell said she never saw Trump do anything “inappropriate.” She also said she never saw *anyone* do anything inappropriate. CASE CLOSED!

It’s clear that the main goal of the Maxwell interview was to get her to say that she didn’t see Trump do anything wrong. Which can only mean that there is something in the files that suggests that he did. Why else would she need to say that? The interview is more incriminating, not less.

The only thing worth saying on Maxwell: she’s denying her own criminal conduct for which she was convicted & sentenced. So she has zero credibility & her statements on Trump doing nothing wrong are meaningless. DOJ in any semi-normal time would say that (well not interview her in first place but…).

INBOX: Former US attorney Preet Bharara is representing Adam Schiff and has issued a statement blasting Ed Martin's "glaring" bias as he examines allegations Bharara says are "stale" and "debunked" re Schiff's mortgage.

Also, our standard now is that it had to have caused “concern” for Ghislaine Maxwell to be problematic?? Ummmm…obviously sexually abusing minors never caused her “concern” BECAUSE SHE PARTICIPATED IN IT

Yes this exactly.

I joined @mimirocah1.bsky.social, @eliehonig.bsky.social, and @preetbharara.bsky.social for @cafedotcom.bsky.social to discuss all things Epstein/Maxwell. It was a great discussion -- hope you will check it out! cafe.visitlink.me/p3mK33

Latest WH Press Secretary Leavitt statement does not help Trump: "The fact remains that President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club for being a creep to his female employees.” 1) That now draws connection to knowledge of sexual predation 2) Actual timeline for booting Epstein from club👇

Big picture: This has significant implications for US government attorneys who risk their bar licenses by engaging in clearly illegal and unethical conduct. D.C. Bar Board of Professional Responsibility recommends DISBARMENT for Jeffrey Clark s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26... Read this line:
