You can read Cohen's full statement here: www.linkedin.com/posts/rachel...
I just put in conditional notice at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Affiliates. I sent that notice firm-wide and anticipate the email will leak. I would rather just share it with you myself.

Once, when I was in fifth grade, I failed a test and came home sobbing. My mom was disappointed in me but couldn’t figure out why I was so upset until I choked out, “now I won’t get into Harvard!!” I was a gunner, even then.

I’ve spent thirty years working to get into these spaces. I do not give them up lightly, and I have made plenty of moral compromises before. But this moment is existential; whether we get better from an already unacceptable status quo or get worse hinges on how we handle it. If being on this career path demands I accept that my industry—because this is certainly not unique to Skadden—will allow an authoritarian government to ignore the courts, I refuse to take it any further. As I have said before, others stand to lose far, far more than a paycheck.

I’m going to go cry and watch the new White Lotus, but rest assured I will be back tomorrow, and the next day, and the next. Thank you.

NATO is dead. The US has informed its NATO allies of its intention to no longer participate in the planning of future military exercises in Europe, according to Expressen sources. This is the only report on this so far, so we'll have to wait and see.

For anyone wondering why Donald Trump refuses to criticise Putin, while hectoring Zelenskyy, here is my piece about the US president's 1987 trip to Moscow. Trump's visit was arranged by the ... KGB. Extract comes from my #1 New York Times-bestselling book 'Collusion' www.politico.com/magazine/sto...
politico.com
The Hidden History of Trump’s First Trip to Moscow
In 1987, a young real estate developer traveled to the Soviet Union. The KGB almost certainly made the trip happen.

Trump’s $5M Gold Visa proposal is just a back door for Russian oligarchs to fast track US citizenship and throw unlimited money at our elections. We the people need to work out how to stop this otherwise a lot of Americans will end up poisoned by plutonium tea and falling out of windows.

My very first political protest in 2023. I dragged my kids and husband along. Someone gave us a sign to carry. This five and a half year old kid now 27, normally leaves the politics to his younger sister, just sent me an essay that he wrote that touched my heart….
