OK, all! I am so appreciative of the support that you have shown me in launching Law Dork. Now, in the last 15 days of my first year, I need your help.
lawdork.com
My original goal when launching was 10,000 total subscribers in the first year, and 1,000 paid subscribers. The total subscribers is well above the goal — headed toward 15,000! lawdork.com Law Dork chart showing 14,3...
But, as you can see, I still need 100 more paid subscribers before June 21 to meet that goal. If you've been reading my work and are able to afford it, please consider a paid subscription today. It's just $6/mo or $60/year. Thank you! lawdork.com/subscribe Law Dork chart showing 900 ...

BREAKING: Federal judge rules Florida bans on gender-affirming care for minors is likely unconstitutional, issues injunction halting enforcement of the bans against the plaintiffs who challenged the regulatory and statutory bans. More to come at Law Dork: lawdork.com ImageImage
Here’s the ruling, from US District Judge Robert Hinkle, a Clinton appointee: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
This ruling does not address the adult-care provisions of the Florida law.

I mean, what am I supposed to do with this but laugh?
"Wait, I wasn't supposed to drain the pool *into* the server room?! Oops!"
This is actually the perfect Trump story:
1. People were investigating.
2. Something was done that could harm the investigation.
3. Unclear if the act was intentional or incompetence.
4. Suspicious act didn't ultimately harm the investigation.
5. It did cause more investigation.

What's most revealing about this is that this is the first time in the history of the @nytimes that it has not taken credit for its "impact" journalism.
In any other situation, that's all we'd be hearing about: How the NYT's reporting led to action. Here, the reporter acts like this is happening in a vacuum. Reporting isn't mentioned. This is "a Republican movement to regulate the lives of transgender youth." By Francesca Paris June 5, ...
It's sickening to see the failure of accountability at the @nytimes. No, they're not alone. No, they're not the worst. But, as I've said before, you don't get to say you're "the paper of record" & claim how powerful your reporting is at every moment except when you empower hate.

Twenty years of Law Dork — lawdork.com/p/twenty-years… — and I could not be more proud of the work I'm putting out now.
On Thursday, I wrote about Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissent in the big labor case at #SCOTUS, Glacier Northwest v. Teamsters: lawdork.com/p/jackson-diss…
Then, late Friday night (technically, early Saturday morning), I was the first to report on the ruling against Tennessee's anti-drag law: lawdork.com/p/tennessee-an…
