Great people, great docket, great opportunity.
So I'm running to bring a Democrat back to the 14th Court. Hopefully, the scary political case will never come there--but we need Democrats just in case. As a full-time appellate lawyer, I'm the right one for that job.
I hope you'll support me. Again: www.adams-hurta.com (full website in progress)

This is a perfect explanation of why the issue of independent agencies matters: Because it’s about something much bigger—how we understand and implement democratic legitimacy, the idea that we the American people control our government.

MARIANNE VOS WINS STAGE 1 OF 🇫🇷 #TDFF2025
Wow what an ending! Pauline Ferrand-Prévot had looked like taking the win but tires in the last metres leading to Marianne Vos taking her 250th win of her career, and the yellow jersey!
I was so in awe of the people I worked for when I interned at State. It’s what made me want to be a lawyer, made me know I wanted to do environmental work, made me determined to be a public servant. It felt so special to walk into that beautiful building every day. This is just so sad.

I like it when you and @jdmortenson.bsky.social have bad sweets-related takes. Really humanizes y’all.
Someone gave me a hug for alerting them to good BBQ, and it's probably the most accomplished I've felt all year.

I have to end this thread with a major shoutout to @sshebaya.bsky.social and @nipnlg.bsky.social, who litigated this case since the family was first arrested in Washington DC.
The family have been put through the ringer and NIPNLG deserves support for the incredibly victory they just won for them.
This was a great read!
