They don’t do it because it’s not about crime or justice or even following the law. It is about terrorizing brown immigrants. It is about keeping America as white as possible. They’ve admitted it.

It was extraordinary. There is, for example, no earthly reason why a little-known radio presenter on a commercial station should have become a national rallying point for Brexit reality simply by telling the obvious truth. (He did have to step down from occasionally presenting Newsnight, though.) 😉

It's funny how the stupidest people of this year - the "Don't worry about what Trump says, he doesn't mean it" brigade - were also the stupidest people of all the Brexit/Truss/Johnson years. It's not funny how they still occupy almost all of the major roles in the commentariat.

JUST IN: My old firm WilmerHale sues to challenge Trump’s order against them, represented by the best conservative lawyer in the country, former Solicitor General Paul Clement. THE TIDE IS STARTING TO TURN 👊🇺🇸🔥 assets.bwbx.io/documents/us...
Case 1:25-cv-00917 Document 1 Filed 03/28/25 Page 7 of 63
INTRODUCTION
1. "[The right to counsel is the foundation for our adversary system," Martinez v.
Ryan, 566 U.S. 1, 12 (2012), and the "courage" of attorneys who take on unpopular clients has
long "made lawyerdom proud," Sacher v. United States, 343 U.S. 1, 4 (1952). John Adams famously embodied these principles by defending eight British soldiers in the "Boston Massacre"
trial, an effort he described as "one of the best pieces of service I ever rendered my country."! And
British monarchs' practice of punishing attorneys "whose greatest crime was to dare to defend
unpopular causes"-which threatened to reduce lawyers to "parrots of the views of whatever group
wields governmental power at the moment"-helped inspire the Bill of Rights. Cohen v. Hurley,
366 U.S. 117, 138-40 (1961) (Black, J., dissenting). It is thus a core principle of our legal system
that "one should not be penalized for merely defending or prosecuting a lawsuit." F. D. Rich Co.
v. United States ex rel. Indus. Lumber Co., 417 U.S. 116, 129 (1974).
In an unprecedented assault on that bedrock principle, the President has issued
multiple executive orders in recent weeks targeting law firms and their employees as an
undisguised form of retaliation for representing clients and causes he disfavors or employing lawyers he dislikes? These "personal vendetta[s]" are so facially improper that the first court to address the merits of one of these orders concluded that it likely violates multiple foundational
' David McCullough, John Adams 68 (2001).

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.
