Former lawyer, former Brooklynite, now uptown and out of town.
both Andrew Lawrence of MMFA and Dean Baker of Beat the Press have been suspended from twitter, anyone who follows those guys knows their only sin is poking fun at the right and they aren't even major shit stirrers. Suspect the lefty purges will continue

This is shockingly bad journalism. The WaPo wants us to sympathize with Trump's surgeon general because he finds it hard to get hired. It briefly mentions a few of his worst statements but does not make him answer for them. This is the guy who tweeted, “Roses are red/Violets are blue/Risk is low for #coronavirus/But high for the flu."

I’m a civil rights lawyer. I don’t want to practice before a Court that’s compromised. I want a fair Court. Expansion would make this particular Court more ideologically balanced. Agree. But w/o a real, enforced ethics infrastructure, there will be 18 justices not fully disclosing financials, not compelled to recuse, praying in chambers w/their own faith leaders, going on trips w/groups filing briefs in cases before them, owning stock in indiv companies whose interests are before the Court.
