DOJ is short staffed and has a rising workload. They just sent a signal that no one should grant them a courtesy filling extension because they use that extension as an opportunity to further injure the opposing party instead of working on their briefs.

Not only did a federal judge just order Trump to *immediately* reinstate tens of thousands of fired federal employees across 6 agencies, calling their firings "unlawful" and a "sham." The judge said he might also extend his order to cover more agencies. www.huffpost.com/entry/judge-...

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

I disagree with many of the anti-Israel protests, especially those that target Jewish spaces, but this is appalling. Deporting people based on their political beliefs is a horrifying slippery slope that will not end well. Jews should not be applauding this.

This is fascism at its core. Trump is making lawyers fear who they take on as clients. This is happening before Trump uses the DOJ and FBI to go after his enemies. At that point, wrongfully targeted people won't be able to get the best representation. I am terrified. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

“It’s a sad spectacle to see a law firm …rendering itself into an instrument for lawlessness. It’s also a cautionary example of how lawyers should not conduct themselves as the Trump regime proceeds with its effort to replace the nation’s justice system with one governed by cronyism and corruption.”
