DOJ lawyers have lied in court and can't answer basic questions: "DOJ attorneys have been rebuked by judges of all stripes... you've seen pushback from Reagan appointees, you've seen pushback from Bush appointees, you've seen pushback from Obama appointees and Trump appointees and Biden appointees"
Today!
Looking forward to attending this webinar on the courts and their role in our democracy with @americanprogress.bsky.social and @mikepod.bsky.social - still time to RSVP if you haven't!
"Few countries and territories have seen larger percentage-point drops in confidence in the judiciary than the U.S. These include Myanmar overlapping the return to military rule, Venezuela amid deep economic and political turmoil, and Syria in the runup to and early years of civil war."

Economic justice issues like overtime pay and credit card late fees are being decided in our courtrooms! www.consumeradvocates.org/blog/caring-...

Over the past year, I've learned a ton about the courts and their impact on everyday Americans from the folks in this starter pack! Give 'em a follow and get engaged :) bsky.app/starter-pack...
Want to tell @schumer.senate.gov and your senator to schedule votes on the four circuit court nominees still awaiting action? Use Lena's link here to send them an email.
And then call them at 202-224-3121 and tell them again!
We can't leave a single nominee behind!
