[Ed. note: “See Also” is a new column we’ll be running in place of Non-Sequiturs. It’s going to be an evening ATL Digest for people who missed some of our content earlier in the day.] WE'RE GONNA NEED MORE LAWYERS: Yes, me, Elie Mystal, law school "scam" blogger, am happy that Trump is making more people go to law school. The "Trump bump" for law school applications is real. And we need it. Because lawyers are the first responders to the Trump crisis. Go get your entirely overpriced J.D. and join the fight. Read this. THERE SHOULD BE A SITE THAT JUST PICKS A RANDOM TRUMP OFFICIAL EVERYDAY AND LISTS THEIR (LACK OF) QUALIFICATIONS: Here at Above the Law, we have to focus on the embarrassing legal qualifications of Team-Trump, but really there needs to be an app where you just pull up one of these people at random whenever you are feeling like you are under-qualified for the task at hand, to make yourself feel better. Let's point and laugh at this lawyer though. THE ARPAIO PARDON WAS A TEST BALLOON: We've written a lot about the pardon of Joe Arpaio. So have others. The overwhelming upshot is that the president can, but he shouldn't have. When reached for comment, Captain Jack Sparrow said: "The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do." Read This. F**K DA POLICE: Seriously. Read this, then read this, then come at me on Twitter about "#NotAllCops" so I can yell at you in public. IN WEDDING NEWS: It looks like our top-read story for the week is going to be the one about the newlywed who faked her bills to cover for her time spent on honeymoon. Our second most read story is going to be the law firm ad looking for "Baylor Law wives" to work as receptionists. We know a lot of people get married over Labor Day weekend, so here's just a reminder that when an attorney marries a non-lawyer, the one without legal training is probably the better person. Read about married attorneys. Read about people married to attorneys.
