One of the themes of Bluesky comments about Trump Administration lawyers is “won’t these guys get in trouble for that?” or, more optimistically, “that’s going to get [Ed Martin, Emil Bove, Pam Bondi, etc.] disbarred.” At the risk of being the Debbie Downer
Trump’s Unresolved Childhood Trauma On Full Display
---------------------
Trump’s words are not the declaration of a leader seeking justice but of a man consumed by vengeance. His impulse to “go after” those who oppose him reveals not strength, but weakness, the fear of a man who cannot tolerate truth, only submission. The wielding of power through threats and intimidation is not a sign of righteousness, but of moral decay.
---------------------
A truly honest man does not need to attack others to prove his integrity. Yet here is Trump, a weak man who has built his life on deception, labeling others as “very, very dishonest.” There is no principle in his accusation, only projection. He accuses others of the very corruption he himself embodies, as if by pointing the finger outward, he can escape the reality of his own lies.
---------------------
Violence, whether physical or verbal, only deepens the cycle of falsehood and suffering. Trump believes he can bend reality to his will through force, but truth is not something to be controlled or silenced. The more he fights to destroy those who expose him, the more he reveals his own moral emptiness.
---------------------
Ultimately, true power lies not in threats, but in living by truth, no matter the consequences. And for all of Trump’s lame ass bluster, history will judge him not by the enemies he tried to crush, but by the legacy of deceit and division he leaves behind.
Thanks, Bill! Sorry it was a bummer, but I don't want to see people spending too much energy working on bar grievances when they're almost certainly going to go nowhere. I get the publicity value of something like the letter from the Democratic Senators on the Judiciary Committee, but I worry that it feeds into the right's "weaponization" claims.
Thanks, Brad. I learned a lot and love the song reference.

Downer, indeed. But, still, a wonderful article.
