Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

And if you’re an associate, announce tomorrow your plans to leave. There are so many better places to work, in the City and elsewhere. You’ll be glad that you did. And all you headhunters out there, get on those phones first thing!

A law firm that negotiates with terrorists and capitulates to fascists is one that no one should ever be involved with under any circumstances. Not as an employee, not as a client, not even with respect to those publications and analysts that rank firms. You don't rank a gaggle of cowardly lackeys.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Do we think it's as simple as this? Wall Street is panicked over the tariffs and is begging Senate Democrats (and promising them fat checks in exchange) to stabilize the economy and not allow the government to be shut down. Both NY senators cave and sell us out to Elon Musk.

A little over a month ago the Conservatives were as much as 27 points ahead. These latest polls show the Liberal party is slightly ahead with Carney as the likely new leader. Carney still has a long way to go to prove himself but he's in the game now at least. globalnews.ca/news/1103474...

Joe Biden's move on pardons today is guaranteed to trigger some classic right-wing outrage. But here's the kicker: it might actually make them stop and think for a second. Why? Because it proves that a Democrat can also say, "Screw the rule book," and throw it straight out the damn window.

They want a friendly autocracy that rigs the system in ways they prefer. So Laura Loomer and Steve Bannon might chafe at Elon Musk’s disdain; Cletus won’t.”
