And stop blaming any of this on Democrats. That helps nothing. It won't even make you feel better, because you shouldn't feel better doing it. This is on the GOP, whose congress folks have collapsed before Mad Kings Trump and Musk like a closet full of broken umbrellas.
Now is the time to do good yourself, or at least line up behind those trying to fight back.
I would love to see a similar statement of principles from the AMA, but would be shocked if they issued one. I'd like to see it from every professional association - just "here's what we believe in, why we do what we do, and we are going to defend and protect that."

Are there actions the ABA can take to show that they are actually serious about their words?? As in perhaps stripping some of the worst of these lawbreaking lawyers of their licenses????

It doesn't issue law licenses and it doesn't have any actual real-world authority other than a platform and its general prestige.

The Republican Party supports the rule of law as long as they get to make the rules (up as they go along).
unfortunately it’s too damn late!
Thank Baby Jesus!!
Do we have 17 sane Congressional Republicans? Really? Who?
And THIS is what Musk is doing with our private information that he stole from Treasury
