'The Resistance Mapping website functions as a living, digital archive that documents the history of racist housing and other place-based policies in Rochester and the surrounding region. The materials explore how Rochester’s current segregation emerges from that history and confronts these realities through stories of past and present activism, along with creative imagined possibilities for our community’s future.'

Someone asked me what I think is going on with Trump's lawyers attacking the clerk.

Yesterday I said this:

"It's hard to tell what is going on with that. My best guess is that Trump's lawyers are fatigued, know they are losing, and are getting weird and paranoid."

Judge Engoron, who sees it all up close, said there is misogyny.

I just saw a picture of the clerk and I have revised my opinion.

The judge may be right . . .

Here's the DOJ's request for a gag order:

https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.258149/gov.uscourts.dcd.258149.57.0_1.pdf

As with all of the DOJ's filings, this was written for public consumption. It contains very little legalese, the law is presented in a straightforward way, and the material is, um, I guess you could say compelling.

The DOJ refers to this as a high-profile case.

Well, that's your classic understatement. I think it's safe to say that everyone in DC by now has a strong opinion about Trump.
