Retired after more than 3 decades at DOJ's Environment & Natural Resources Division, which was a great place to work--home to many of the nation's best lawyers. NO DM, PORN, or SOLICITATION! Looking for news, analysis, and gallows humor, not love or sex.

When Biden forgave student loans, the GOPers went ballistic, accusing him of taking Congress's power of the purse, even though servicing and enforcement of loans is an Executive function. But Felonious Rump just takes what Congress appropriates and uses them as he likes. Who needs Congress?

Whiskey Pete thinks a middle-age guy prancing around preaching toughness—looking as threatening as a synchronized-swimmer—is going to change the fact that in Ukraine and Iran a bunch of rag-tag, dedicated fighters are holding off the most powerful armies. Pete's swimming in the wrong direction.

This alone is a sufficient reason to impeach Trump and DOJ's leadership! "[O]ne in five government lawyers had left their job since the start of 2025. The largest numerical decline was in the Justice Department, where more than four thousand have left—a reduction of roughly thirty per cent."
