Like I said a few times before, it was NEVER about campus protests or anti-semitism. It was always about seizing control of higher education through govt blackmail and coercion.

"I want people to be safe and protected. I want to live on the right side of history. I am an immigrant. My parents are refugees from Chile. We fled a dictatorship and I was privileged enough to grow up in the United States after asylum in Denmark. I stand by those protections, always."

In this country, everyone has constitutional rights—not just US citizens. Van Hollen did what few have the guts to do—he showed up. In person. For someone our government is using as a pawn. The Constitution says “persons,” not “citizens.” Due process is not optional.

Proud to submit 2 more amicus briefs today urging courts in DC to stop Trump's unconstitutional & dangerous executive orders targeting law firms. They're plainly “self-declared acts of retribution that target a law firm for representing clients and causes the President disfavors.”

It has been genuinely moving — moved me to tears, actually — to see so much support for our work at @lawfaremedia.org. Since yesterday, 3 additional donors have agreed to match contributions up to 5K each — thank you @judgeluttig.bsky.social for helping us get there! givebutter.com/journalism/a...

It’s almost as though everyone in Trump’s orbit, inside and outside government, gets together on a (non-secure) Zoom call to decide “What’s the most corrupt and illegal thing we can do today? And on some days they can’t reach consensus so they just go ahead and do them all.

Ben Wittes, Roger Parloff, Quinta Jurecic, & Anna Bower, I would be glad to make a “Champion” contribution toward the $15,000 match by your generous donor. Lawfare is literally indispensable in these historic times in which we live.

TAX BREAKS FOR BILLIONAIRES = CUTS TO SOCIAL SECURITY The MAGA Republican plan is a slap in the face to everyone, who has worked their whole life for a comfortable retirement. Stealing our hard-earned benefits to reward corrupt billionaires like Elon Musk will hurt them on election day in 2026.

This picture may haunt me to the end of my days. It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man. An axe taken to a car window and to our democracy. 1/ #MomSky

Let’s be perfectly clear… When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is ‘the role of Congress’ to remove him from office… Full stop. Any Questions?!

One of the most troubling developments under this new administration is we have a government that fails to keep its promises. We have seen the termination or pause of funding for many essential programs that Michiganders rely on — including Medicaid and Meals on Wheels.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.
