Lawyers for Good Government (L4GG)@lawyers4goodgov.bsky.social · 2d ago

Join L4GG Founder and Executive Director Traci Feit Love, Stacey Abrams, Ashley Upkins, and Dahlia Lithwick for a conversation about the courts, legal strategy, and how lawyers and advocates can take action. August 4 at 7 p.m. ET RSVP: L4GG.org/Litigate

We know posturing when we see it. Acting AG Todd Blanche won’t make the assurances in court that President Trump’s slush fund is gone for good — even though he can post about it on X. CEO @skyeperryman.bsky.social joined @weeknightmsnow.bsky.social to talk about our latest demand for answers.

Thoughts on the way to @ms.now about why Todd Blanche’s promises about the slush fund are not enough and what our team of attorneys at @democracyforward.org is doing in court — we aren’t fooled and it isn’t over.

Said it before & will say it again: if can say it on tv or on X, say it under oath in court. The slush fund isn’t operating because we blocked it in court. Neither we nor our clients are fooled. It’s unfortunate some Senators are. Blanche has to show more to claim the slush fund is really dead.

Democracy Forward@democracyforward.org · 2d ago

BREAKING: Acting AG Todd Blanche wants the American public to believe a late-night social media post is proof that President Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund is completely dead — but seemingly still won't swear to it in court. We're demanding the DOJ say under oath that the fund cannot be revived.

The facts don't add up. And you can't escape that in court. @skyeperryman.bsky.social on the DOJ's decision to drop charges in the reflecting pool case and what it means for all of us.

Remember: When we fight, we win. Dozens of our brave clients have proved in court that we have the power to successfully stand up against this admin’s unlawful actions.

Courage is not the absence of fear, it requires fear. It is not a knight in shining armor riding in on a horse, it’s often people who are quaking in their boots. But we must show up anyway. 1/ #booksky💡💙📚

Taylor Farms called the White House to delay an FDA recall of their produce that sickened thousands with a parasitic infection. This shows how Trump is willing to put corporate interests over the health of Americans. We’re investigating this unprecedented White House interference.

Docs obtained through our lawsuit paint a startling picture of Todd Blanche & Kash Patel’s coordinated efforts to cover for public figures mentioned in the Epstein Files. The Trump-Vance admin wants the American people to forget about how it’s handling the files. We'll keep demanding transparency.

Our country’s history makes one thing clear: real change has always come because the people have demanded it. We must do so now. Thank you to Stephanie Streett & @clintoncenter.bsky.social for having me and our @democracyforward.org team to Little Rock. Let’s keep going.

DHS is secretly collecting the personal info of people who observe or protest ICE into a database – a gross violation of the Privacy Act. We're challenging this abuse of power. The Constitution protects people's right to hold govt accountable, not a govt's ability to retaliate against those who do.

“The federal government cannot build secret dossiers on people because they exercise their First Amendment right to peacefully observe, document, or criticize its actions," said the head of Democracy Forward.

Okay folks, we are 100 days out. Time to get to work. Our team at Democracy Forward has a 100 day of action plan. Find a friend or partner, recruit your kids, let’s go 👉 democracyforward.org/act/100-days...

Our team at @democracyforward.org is so proud to be on the frontlines suing to challenge this abuse of power. We blocked the President’s arbitrary termination of this funding in his first term and we will prevail again.

Millions of women and girls pursued dreams they may have otherwise deferred. The Trump administration wants to turn Nback the clock. It's up to all of us to tell them in November that we won't go back.

The Trump-Vance admin's threats to our elections are serious — but we must stay focused. Remember: the American people have the real power in the midterms.

Our country belongs to the people – not the president. CEO @skyeperryman.bsky.social joined President @rweingarten.bsky.social at the @aft.org convention to talk about how lawyers and communities are working together to protect the right to vote.
