This is why the only answer here is for leagues, teams, coaches, and players who actually care about their teammates and fans to loudly shout down this hate. She's gonna keep talking. Her shithead followers are going to keep showing up. They should be made to feel unwelcome. They are not welcome.

Why do lawyers write like this? Who do they think they are writing to? Is it the judges who are skeptical that will be convinced by this b*******, or the judges who already agree with them who don't need to be convinced?

The wild — and poorly formatted — motion to Judge Willams seeking a stay pending appeal: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us... Notably, today's filings only come from Christopher Oprison. The other DLA Piper lawyer to make an appearance in the case is not on either filing today.

INTRODUCTION This case arose from the Internal Revenue Service’s (“IRS”) admitted failure to protect Plaintiffs’ tax information from a convicted criminal. That convicted felon, Charles Littlejohn, deliberately stole and disclosed Plaintiffs’ information, pled guilty, and went to prison. In addition to criminal penalties, Congress created a civil remedy for precisely that injury. Plaintiffs invoked it, the parties negotiated a compromise, and the action was voluntarily dismissed with prejudice. That should have ended the case. Instead, the Court transformed a completed statutory dispute into an improper sanctions proceeding. It incorrectly branded the litigation collusive, mistakenly accused Plaintiffs and counsel of bad faith, threatened professional licenses and reputations, imposed monetary sanctions, and entered a sweeping injunction forbidding future reference to the Settlement Agreement. D.E.106 at 46-47, 52-53. All of that was error. The Sanctions Order threatens free speech, professional livelihoods, and the integrity of judicial proceedings. The ruling rests on a grievous legal error: that, because President Trump supervises the Executive Branch, he and the United States necessarily possess the same legal interest and cannot be adverse to each other. That is wrong. President Trump asserted a personal claim arising from the theft of his own tax information. The IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) represented the sovereign’s interests in public funds and federal law. Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and The Trump Organization asserted their own independent claims. Presidential supervision did not erase those rights or merge those interests.

A hard truth: if the defendant were a pro-life leader or a gun-rights activist, the 5th Cir. would have come wielding the First Amendment like a shield. But in this case, it was a BLM leader. So they spent ten years trying to find ways to say the First Amendment doesn't apply.

Those inclined to applaud today’s result should consider how the same rule will operate in tomorrow’s case. Today’s defendant is associated with Black Lives Matter. Tomorrow’s may be a gun-rights advocate, a pro-life leader, a pastor protesting a government mandate, or parents addressing a school-board meeting. Constitutional rules cannot turn on the cause, the crowd, or the speaker. The First Amendment must protect advocacy without regard to whether the cause is popular or unpopular, favored or disfavored. Otherwise, constitutional guarantees become fair-weather guarantees. The en banc court should have stopped this doctrinal erasure. It did not. Now the Supreme Court should. I respectfully dissent.

Trump's cruelty isn't a "mistake." It's cruelty. That it will hurt people he does not like is the point.

i really, truly want to understand how some of my fellow jews believe mayor mamdani calling the prime minister of israel a war criminal—which he is—was fuel for a mentally ill man to stab two people in NYC, one of whom wasn’t jewish. what in the ever-loving fuck.

It’s embarrassing that the rabbi of Central Synagogue - one of the most prominent Reform rabbis in the US - is portraying Mamdani’s accurate description of Netanyahu as a war criminal as a sign of antisemitism. This is part of why young people take antisemitism less seriously than they should.

To this day, everybody in DC calls it national airport. What you will get, is a bunch of irritates locals and Uber/cab drivers every time a tourist says they have to go to Trump Station.

As a seventh generation New Yorker, here is something I can flatly guarantee you: There is a ZERO PERCENT CHANCE that Penn Station will ever be known as "Trump Station." It will not happen. It makes no difference whether his name gets put up on it or not; New Yorkers will simply not call it that.
