All truth. I was supposed to get a month off, but one week went to helping on a federal class action trial and then it took more than a week to get everything ready for me to leave for the week. That 11 days included travel, too.

How can you define the Trump era when you can't define lawfare?

Trump was a nothing politically until 2016, so that is easy.

That's why it's 2016-Present

The "present" part is ever changing.

That doesn't even really make sense in the context of trying to be cute with the term "lawfare."

Well "lawfare", depending on the day/thread, can apply to criminal prosecution, civil suits, AND administrative actions.

So it works both from a policy-admin perspective as well as civil-regulatory litigation perspective.

He gets caught being too cute by a half and then tries to audible from the original discussion or further obfuscate his position.

He's been outed so many times, but he doesn't care. He maintains he is a beacon of truth. His schtick is old and tired.

The land shouldn’t have to pay for the blight of democrat lunacy there. It just needs to get so bad that democrats just can’t stand it anymore

Recently? FEMA and North Carolina. That disaster was called "lawfare" early and often.

Other non-DOJ favorites are the IRS and EPA. You can go to X and search "lawfare" and whatever agency you want and you'll find plenty.

I don't know of many major shifts.

Still a small-L libertarian like I have been for almost 20 years on here.

Still promoting the free market and removing government intervention in the market as well as dismantling the Police State.
