Unreasonably excited about the @FERC open meeting agenda for Thursday. Co-location of generation may be THE issue in the industry right now.

Proud of all the civil rights work we do here at @MorganLewisLaw regardless of how popular the individual client may be. Part of being an attorney and a big part of why it's great to work with the best of the best.

[J. Daniel Skees @JDSkees]

Most shocking legal news yesterday may be @Kirkland_Ellis setting $ as their lodestar "they’re leaving the firm rather than dump their clients. That’s the honorable and ethical decision." You Won Your Gun Case. You’re Fired. https://t.co/0UpxDzp1pr

If true, whoever leaked this has chosen to harm to the foundations of the US justice system and should be in prison and (if applicable) disbarred.

[SCOTUSblog @SCOTUSblog]

It’s impossible to overstate the earthquake this will cause inside the Court, in terms of the destruction of trust among the Justices and staff. This leak is the gravest, most unforgivable sin.
