The people are not always right. Moral courage is always necessary in leadership. And we cannot ever think that we have permanently vanquished the ideas that Trump and so many others before him have used to lead so many Americans astray. nytimes.com/2024/11/03/opi…

This is amazing. The New York Times put together a graphic of how much time cabinet members spend kissing up to Trump in meetings. "On average, at least one of every six sentences either flattered Mr. Trump, gave him credit or criticized his political opponents." North Korea.

"when human dignity is threatened by new forms of dehumanization, ours is the pressing duty to remain profoundly human. We must lovingly safeguard the grandeur of humanity bestowed upon us and revealed in its fullness in Christ, the splendor of which no machine can ever replace"

A federal judge has just ruled that the Trump administration illegally weaponized the Department of Justice against Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Will he be eligible to seek millions from the Trump slush fund?
Lisa Rubin@lawofruby

NEW: After a court dismissed federal charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia due to selective & vindictive prosecution, his legal team tells MS NOW that he was "a victim of a politicized, vindictive White House and its lawyers at what used to be an independent Justice Department." 1/

This is completely staggering. Judge Perry says of the Trump admins efforts to prosecute anti-ICE protestors: “I do believe deeply in the presumption of regularity and that most government attorneys are doing the best they can to do the right thing. That trust has been broken.”

JUST IN: The transcript of Judge April Perry's comments in the Broadview Six hearing is in, and it is as described. "I have never seen the types of prosecutorial behavior before a grand jury that I saw in those transcripts."

I have no idea if he’s an idiot or a cynical liar or some mixture of both. But this sort of thing makes me appreciate how fragile the American experiment is.

Rep. Norman: January 6th was an issue that was made up in the first place. Reporter: Made up? Norman: That was a staged thing from day one. Reporter: The riot was staged? Your Republican colleagues barricaded themselves in their chamber. You think they were acting?

CLIENT: These federal charges seem serious. What kind of sentence could I get? LAWYER: Depending on the next presidential election, you're looking at somewhere between life imprisonment and becoming a millionaire.

Any institution that protects its members from corruption and incompetence is doomed to fail, often spectacularly. We're now paying the price for decades of immunities and protections granted to federal officials under the ridiculous presumption that real accountability would make it more difficult for them to do their jobs. I continue to think that the single-most important structural reform we can undertake is to enhance legal accountability in government.
