🚨BREAKING: A federal judge issued a sweeping order blocking President Donald Trump’s unprecedented seizure of California’s National Guard, calling the move illegal and a “dangerous precedent. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

SHUT. IT. DOWN. A senator was dragged out of a press conference for standing up for his constituents and against fascism. Watch how your representatives and senators respond to their own colleague being treated like this. That'll show you how they'll react when it's *you* on the ground.

You don’t need a think tank to figure this out. Every single person in the world wants to be safe and comfortably afford housing, groceries, and healthcare. It’s really that simple.

it was not right that Hasan was stopped however his encounter seems to have ended when he asked if he was being detained. if this happens to you the script is simple am I being detained? If no: may I go If yes: invoke the 5th

REFUGEE: "We'd like asylum in the United States." ASYLUM HOTLINE: "We're full. Not taking any more." REFUGEE: "We're white." ASYLUM HOTLINE: "How soon can you get here?"

This thing about the Afrikaners getting asylum while everyone else doesn't is a story you'd make up if you wanted to slander someone.

Telling on themselves. THEY 👏🏼 NOT 👏🏼 ANTI 👏🏼 IMMIGRATION 👏🏼 THEY 👏🏼 RACIST

Does anyone know why the ghouls who run our country put propaganda “self-deportation” commercials on my MLBtv and if I can make it stop?

BREAKING: An appeals court ruled RĂĽmeysa Ă–ztĂĽrk must be transferred back to Vermont from Louisiana within a week. We will keep fighting until RĂĽmeysa is released for good.

Austin Riley going dong city as Perez says the batters eye is too hard is poetry

I’m so tired of seeing stupid shit like this

JUST IN: A federal judge in Texas, appointed by Donald Trump, will allow those targeted by the Alien Enemies Act in South Texas to proceed with a class action against the government. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

They’re arresting judges. This is fascism. Get loud about it.

The incompetence is part of the terror. Your life is blasted to smithereens while a MAGA ghoul smirk-shrugs, “Oops” then goes back to shitposting.

ELI WHITE BRAVES 8TH INNING HERO JUST LIKE WE DREW IT UP

Some stank you can’t wash out, big dog. Good luck with that tho.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess nobody ran this by legal before posting

Just before 1 a.m., #SCOTUS stepped back into the Alien Enemy Act litigation with a (remarkable) ruling that suggests, among other things, that a majority of the justices is tiring of the Trump administration’s Calvinball. For more, see the latest “One First”: www.stevevladeck.com/p/144-the-su...

As a lawyer, it always baffles me when other lawyers make statements like the Vice President’s below. I don’t understand how you can make it through law school and/or practice law and then come out saying shit like this about due process when the Fifth Amendment exists.

After an immigration court denied Rümeysa Öztürk bond, she remains unlawfully detained in Louisiana. This fight isn’t over. In a new filing in her federal case, we’re asking a court to urgently bring her back to New England. We'll keep fighting for Rümeysa's freedom and First Amendment rights.

Abolish ICE. This is disgusting.

It's genuinely hard to express to sort of normal not politically plugged in non-lawyers *how* lawless the Trump administration is, and I think that's some part of the problem. You sound like you're hyperventilating, but it's just a flat description of what is going on.

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of detainees being removed from the United States to foreign prisons until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

This is exactly what Democrats should be doing!! You’ve got power and status so leverage it. More of this!!!!

If Kristi Noem can fly down to film a promo video for fascism at this prison, the US can go get him and bring him home

The problem with this ruling is the presumption of regularity. In any other administration, a remand with instructions to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s return would lead to honest representations about what is—and isn’t—possible. In this administration, there’s no reason to expect straight answers.

Lfgggggggg

Spooky shit y’all.

Over the past few weeks, President Trump has used executive orders to wage war on law firms. On "The Daily," a lawyer who chose to quit after his firm, Skadden, negotiated a deal to placate the president, shares his story.

At this point I’m convinced the Braves are playing this game without any consideration of my feelings whatsoever
