The Felon resends order on federal grants!

Donald Trump did not rescind his Executive Order (EO) on federal grants, but rather, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) rescinded the memo directing agencies to implement the freeze on federal grants. The confusion arises from the White House clarifying that while the memo was rescinded, the underlying executive orders themselves remain in effect.

  • The OMB issued a memo on January 27, 2025, ordering a pause on federal grants and loans to review their alignment with Trump's executive orders.
  • A federal judge temporarily blocked the implementation of this freeze on January 28, 2025.
  • On January 29, 2025, the OMB rescinded the memo that caused the confusion, but according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, this action did not rescind the executive orders themselves. The administration's broader efforts to block spending it opposes were still in effect.

Thus, while the immediate directive to freeze grants was rescinded, Trump's executive orders on federal funding were not rescinded.

No, attorneys are not required to work all day. Like professionals in many fields, their work hours can vary based on several factors:

  1. Type of Practice: Attorneys in private practice, large law firms, or those working on high-profile cases might have more demanding schedules, sometimes including long hours and weekend work. In contrast, attorneys in government roles, smaller firms, or those with a less demanding caseload might have more standard hours.
  2. Case Load: The amount of work can fluctuate. During busy periods, like before a trial, during significant corporate transactions, or when deadlines loom, attorneys might work extended hours. However, there are also quieter times where the workload is lighter.
  3. Employment Agreements: Some attorneys might have contracts specifying their hours or have arrangements for flexible working conditions.
  4. Work-Life Balance: Many attorneys strive for a balance between work and personal life. This can lead to different working hours or arrangements like part-time work, especially for those in non-litigation roles or with established practices.
  5. Regulations: In some jurisdictions, there might be rules concerning maximum working hours for legal professionals, especially concerning the ethical obligation to provide competent representation without being overly fatigued.
  6. Client Needs: The urgency of client needs can dictate working hours. An emergency or time-sensitive matter might require immediate attention outside of regular business hours.

In summary, while there are times when attorneys might work very long hours, especially under certain circumstances, there is no blanket requirement for them to work "all day." The profession has evolved to accommodate various working styles and personal commitments, though the nature of legal work can still demand considerable time and flexibility.

"Best practices", especially as defined by a single website, are not a binding requirement upon the entire legal profession, AFAIK.

Your self-esteem might be best served by quitting now. :thup:

I do not do billable hours, and own my own firm. I work as much or as little as I choose. I do not bill by the hour, so I do not do unnecessary work, I do not do extra's just so I can bill.

Any attorney who does 2000 billable hours is raping you to justify his company's bill.

Receptionists don't do billable hours. You are correct.
