🚨 LAST CHANCE TO RSVP – Join us TOMORROW, July 16, at 2:30 PM ET for Holding Court: SCOTUS Term Review – The Power of Dissent. In this virtual conversation, we'll discuss the most consequential decisions and dissents of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2025-2026 term. RSVP: streamyard.com/watch/E5SGuR...

When Senator Kennedy asks Todd Blanche if he is friends with President Trump, Blanche replied, "I'm his lawyer – was his lawyer." He's told us who he is, and we have to LISTEN. We cannot allow the power of the DOJ to be used to attack Trump’s political enemies and reward his allies. #StopBlanche

Our President @rachelrossi.bsky.social joined more than 1200 former DOJ employees in opposing the nomination of Todd Blanche for Attorney General. Read the full letter here: www.politico.com/f/?id=000001...

The Supreme Court's latest term changed the legal landscape — but the dissents may shape what's next. Join us July 16 for Holding Court as we break down the biggest SCOTUS decisions, the dissents that matter most, and what they mean for our future. Register today: streamyard.com/watch/E5SGuR...

"If you're unwilling to show us that you're independent of the President at this early stage of your service, you disqualify yourself as judicial nominees." – @blumenthal.senate.gov These nominees are #UnfitAndUnqualified for the federal bench. Our courts deserve fair and impartial judges. (2/2)

Three actors, one script. Thank you, @blumenthal.senate.gov, for calling it out. If you can't answer these simple questions truthfully, then you shouldn't be given a lifetime seat on the federal bench. #UnfitAndUnqualified (1/2)

When judges publicly take sides on political issues, it undermines trust in our courts and fuels the perception that justice depends on ideology. Our courts deserve judges who are independent, impartial, and committed to the rule of law. #UnfitAndUnqualified #CourtsMatter

Michigan senators should not return a blue slip on Michael Martin — a nominee to United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan — who is so clearly #UnfitandUnqualified for a lifetime appointment to the federal bench. @leahlitman.bsky.social lays out why.

Justin Smith does not deserve a seat on the federal bench. He is another example of Trump trying to rig the courts with judges who will rubber-stamp his authoritarian agenda. We must #StopJustinSmith! #UnfitAndUnqualified

@booker.senate.gov questioned second circuit judicial nominee Matthew Schwartz about a past article he wrote, which harshly opposed same-sex marriage. Our courts need judges who will protect LGBTQ+ rights — not nominees with histories of anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric. #UnfitAndUnqualified

Sixth Circuit judicial nominee Benjamin Flowers defended Ohio’s law capping damages for a rape survivor — even after a jury awarded her $20 million. When pressed by @hirono.senate.gov, he tried to distance himself from the impact of his own argument. #UnfitAndUnqualified

STARTING SOON – Join us TODAY at 3 PM ET for Holding Court: The Trump 2.0 DOJ on Trial. We'll examine tensions between the Department of Justice and the courts, this administration’s willingness to defy court orders, and the impact of widespread DOJ departures. JOIN: streamyard.com/watch/tcNq4g...

In Louisiana v. Callais, SCOTUS dismantled key protections that safeguarded fair representation for decades. Their message is clear: if discrimination is well hidden, it can continue unchecked. We won't accept this. Help us fight back against this lawless Court: secure.ngpvan.com/j-6qQnzXzk61...

Some days it looks like senate hearings. Some days it’s speaking at rallies and mobilizing. Most days it’s listening, learning, and showing up for people fighting to be heard. Every part of it matters.

Year one consisted of Capitol Hill meetings and conversations across the country – with advocates, with funders, with staff. And if this year has taught me anything, it’s that justice work is deeply personal. And this is only the beginning.

We are celebrating one year of strong leadership and making a meaningful impact with our President @rachelrossi.bsky.social. We are grateful to our community of partners and allies who shared messages recognizing this important milestone.

“Everyone talks about what’s happening to our rights… but fewer people talk about what’s it actually takes to defend them.” – @rachelrossi.bsky.social on the current state of AFJ.

John Marck refused to answer Senator Coons's question of whether President Trump is eligible to run for president in 2028. This isn’t a trick question – it's in the Constitution. If you can’t say a president can’t serve a third term, you shouldn’t be a federal judge. 🚩 @coons.senate.gov

Trump nominated judge fails law school 101? Tony Mattivi doesn't seem to know basic discrimination law. #UnfitAndUnqualified

Senator Adam Schiff is exactly right that Trump loyalist Justin Smith is trying to hide his shocking views. #StopJustinSmith #UnfitAndUnqualified

Why can't Trump's lawyer simply answer Senator Durbin's very straightforward question of who won the 2020 election? #StopJustinSmith #UnfitAndUnqualified @durbin.senate.gov

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse did an amazing job of connecting Leonard Leo’s network directly to Eighth Circuit Court nominee Justin Smith. #StopJustinSmith #UnfitAndUnqualified
