Besides upstanding lawyers and law-abiding honorable (present and former) judges, here's a growing list of Profiles in Courage men, women, and advocacy groups who refuse to be cowed or kneel to the force of Trump/Musk/MAGA/Fox "News" intimidation: [Continually updated, e.g. ABA, Robert Reich, Judd Legum, , Sharon McMahon--suggestions welcomed]

I'll begin with Missouri's own Jess[ica] (à la John Lewis's "get in good trouble") Piper, then, in no particular order, Heather Cox Richardson, Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, Ruth Ben-Ghait, Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell, Chris Hayes, Robert Reich, Jim Acosta, Jen Rubin And the Contrarians, Steve Brodner, Brian Tyler Cohen, Jonathan Bernstein, Jessica Craven, Sharon McMahon, Annne Applebaum, Lucian Truscott IV, AOC, Chris Murphy, Elizabeth Warren, Tim Snyder, Jay Kuo, Robert B. Hubbell, Ben Meiseilas, Steve Schmidt, David Pepper, Judd Legum, Jeff Tiedrich, Josh Marshall, Paul Krugman, Andy Borowitz, Jeff Danziger, Ann Telnaes,­͏ ­͏Juan Cole, Will Bunch, Jake Tapper, Bennie Thompson, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger; American Bar Association, Blue Missouri, Sunrise Movement, Third Act, Democracy Forward, Public Citizen, Democracy Index, Democracy Docket, ACLU, America, America/Steven Beschloss, The Freedom Academy et al. And, as Joyce Vance says, "We're in this together"--or via Jess Piper, from rural Missouri: "Solidarity." FIGHT BACK! WE ARE NOT ALONE!

“President” Schmusk is a busy man that is dismantling democracy while being head of every federal agency. You say you want a revolution? Don’t you know you can count me in.
