So great to host youth from @KokuaKalihi and visit with @RonWyden on the court! Next time maybe we can get @brianschatz to join us for a foul shot contest!
Great after last night's Trail Blazers home win here in #RipCity to meet these standout kids from Hawaii. They're in Portland to get YouthLine training from our local heroes at @Lines_for_Life so they can go home & help young Hawaiians facing mental health challenges.

The Secretary of State grinning in a picture with an actual domestic terrorist no longer shocks, but it should.

With @SecRubio at the Shield of the Americas summit. By far the President Trumps choices for his cabinet.
Proud of this Cuban!

I've been reporting in East Africa on the impact of President Trump's USAID cuts, and I find that not only are children dying in large numbers but the pace is accelerating as stockpiles run out and people grow weaker. I also obtained an internal Trump administration memo stating that the cost of shutting down USAID is $6.4 billion over two years. That sum could save more than 1 million children's lives; instead, it is being spent to to shut down programs that save lives. Help spread the word. nytimes.com/2025/09/20/opini…

So it turns out the intellectual force behind the Trump Tariff plan — the one who knits together economic growth, tariffs, deficits and yes, even the attack on DEI, is none other than….. Liz Truss!

Who's Liz Truss, you ask? Well she was British PM for about ten minutes, lasted less time than a head of lettuce sitting on a shelf before the Brits realized she was driving their economy into the ground...

Impossible to overstate the power of Judge Howellʻs rebuke of the Big Law Capitulators in her opinion nullifying the Exec Order that attacked @PerkinsCoieLLP. Judge Howell in essence said two things: 1/4

2) To all you clients out there, do you really want a law firm that tuns tail and runs? She specifically cited the lawyerʻs ethical duty to zealously represent a client, and suggested uncertainty as to whether a firm that capitulated could be trusted to deliver. 3/4

That smackdown will be enshrined in law books called FSupp - the beige books you see on TV & film in any lawyerʻs office. Next time you see Law&Order, you will see those books and know that inside is a huge smackdown of @PaulWeissLLP @SkaddenArps @WeilGotshal - the Capitulators.

HIGH ALERT FOR DC LAWYERS:
Trump/Pam Bondi loyalists are currently making a bid to take over the DC Bar: Her brother is running for President and Alicia Long (who I believe is US Attorney Ed Martin's chief deputy right now) is running for Treasurer.
DC Bar member? VOTE! On line
