“Lawsuits are one of the only ways to hold the line against a regime bent on frog-marching our country back to the late nineteenth century—the actual Gilded Age, before women’s suffrage and the civil rights movement—or even further into the past, perhaps to the 1700s, when Edward Jenner discovered that a cowpox injection could prevent smallpox, and we were literally a nation of immigrants. Hundreds of lawsuits have been piling up since Trump’s executive-order dump on the first day of his second term. These lawsuits and legal complaints are a sinkhole of time and money that we’ll never get back. But they are essential, as are the countless lawyers, watchdog groups and others flooding the courts to defend—even save—American rights, freedoms, laws, values, science, and modernity itself.” (03/03/26)
