The U.S. economy is officially losing jobs. From lost manufacturing to higher costs, the economic failures of the Trump administration keep piling up. There’s no way to spin these dismal results, because Americans know they’re paying the price every day.

This makes me so very happy. Both the vehicle and its maker are real POS’s. Good riddance to both.

MSG is right to fear the organizing power of the great @evangreer.bsky.social, but at some point Knicks and Rangers fans are really going to have to come to terms with the fact that their teams' home is run by an absolute creep obsessed with surveillance.

Thanks to @jeannefromer.bsky.social and @marklemley.bsky.social for working with my awesome @juelsgaardclinic.bsky.social students and me to try to solve the recent law school recruiting "race to the bottom" that harms law students, law firms, and law schools alike. It's time for reform.

State Supreme Courts Can Resolve Early Legal Recruiting Mess
Opinion: Imposing a uniform "hold open" date for job offers to law students would likely put much-needed brakes on accelerated recruiting.

A big win in the 10th Circuit for documentary filmmakers and fair use. And our amicus brief, led by @prmalone.bsky.social played a major role in persuading the court to reverse a bad decision two years ago. Also great to see citations to the new Restatement www.ca10.uscourts.gov/sites/ca10/f...

Great outcome in a case where our clinic submitted two amicus briefs on behalf of IP professors. Huge thanks to @marklemley.bsky.social, @markpmckenna.bsky.social, @rtushnet.bsky.social, and Stacey Dogan for the collaboration in making it happen.

Full-time law professor friends, please consider signing on to our latest amicus brief, this one in the DC Circuit, opposing the abusive Trump Executive Orders targeting law firms. Email or DM me if you want to see the draft brief.

Slightly inconvenient truth. One critical fact about which Trump & Rubio & Hegseth don’t have a clue is that conflicts don’t happen in a moment or a snapshot. They usually have long complex histories & repercussions that also last for decades. This instant gratification crowd doesn’t have a clue. 😡

There you have it. JD Vance’s 2023 blind fantasy in the WSJ about Trump and peace, just below today’s WSJ’s “Breaking News” alert about Trump’s newest war of choice. You can’t make this stuff up.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"
