No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

Admin invoked state secrets privilege and deliberative process in Abrego-Garcia. They tried this before, or feinted in that direction, with Boasberg. It shouldn’t shield them from responding to all discovery, but they’re going to try.
