I’ve come back to look at this a half dozen times since last night

Slotkin facing ethics complaint which accuses her of threatening public servants based on their political views:
SCOOP: Elissa Slotkin has become the latest subject of a formal ethics complaint filed to the select committee chaired by @SenatorLankford and @ChrisCoons, at a time when conservatives have called for more action over tough words. washingtonexaminer.com/news/…

Notably, this comes after @NickSolheim of @americanmoment made a bold pitch to conservatives not just to respond with tough criticism, but to take measures to ensure Slotkin is investigated over what critics call her chilling rhetoric.
Our response to @ElissaSlotkin's threat to conservative staffers: “We are going to help them get jobs, we are going to put them to work, and if anyone comes after them—they’ll have a fight on their hands.”

The @dcexaminer has yet to hear responses from the select committee nor the senators leading it, but we will keep you apprised.

How do you burn through 6+ hours in a single hearing, order DOJ attorneys to sign a document at the outset, then end the day by walking back that forceful order you gave earlier in the day? Be Judge Reyes. Here's a rundown from the explosive hearing today: washingtonexaminer.com/news/…

Thankfully Judge Reyes backed off this request at least. For those wondering, a common reason high level DOJ appointees sometimes signs briefs boils down to good leadership. If there is something that is likely to be contentious with a judge, a DOJ leader signs their name on the brief so that any issues someone has with the brief is directed at them rather than lower level attorneys. Regardless, it goes without saying that a decision such as this should not be something a judge is inquiring into.
Just now: Judge Reyes withdraws her request for DOJ to re-file yesterday's submission with any other DOJ attorneys who are willing to sign it. Reyes says she made decision after thinking about it more, consulting with her clerks.

What happens when a sitting federal judge with life tenure has an apparent mental break and abandons her role as a judge? Chief Judge Elrod has released this incredible document about what happens next. I hope Judge Brown gets the help she needs.

I don’t think it’s supposed to parody anyone in particular.

I mean it is straight out of the rehearsal. At a basic level, he is using an actress to finish the story he wanted to tell for Liz. And the magic trick is that we believe it’s still Liz’s story. It’s Nathan’s.

Happy Opener, South Dakota! Foster and I wish you good luck in the field! Pheasant hunting is part of who we are, and it’s a tradition worth passing on to our kids and grandkids. As Governor, I partnered with landowners to start the Second Century Initiative, helping turn marginal land into wildlife habitat so the next generation can enjoy the same hunting traditions we grew up with.

In the wake of "lawyer v. attorney" kerfuffle, I learned folks feel very strongly about people claiming to be an attorney/lawyer if not able to practice law. I also learned that commentator Elie Mystal (who self-describes as an attorney) never got admitted in NY. It's the same
