/7 Justice Roberts smug and superior dismissal of the dissentsā concerns seems to come to us via time warp from some time that never knew Trump. The danger of lawlessness he poses are manifest ā he and his followers brag of them. Only a liar or fool would dismiss them.

Enron execs went to jail. Boeing execs did not. The difference? Starting with GWB, conservatives rigged DOJ so Enron wouldn't happen again. It should be a top priority of ours to fix DOJ culture and change this back.

New, from me: Senators Joe Manchin and Mitt Romney have a bill that would limit the use of telework to two days per week for federal employees.
They say its about productivity. But it would weaken the capacity of the feds to recruit and retain employees. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/inflexible...
