Stephen Miller serves a deranged authoritarian who thinks he is all powerful and can do whatever he wants. He is wrong. Our job as lawyers is to stand up to him and defeat him in court. I, for one, will never bow down or seek a deal with Trump. I will stand tall and fight.

Trump regime just arrested the Mayor of Newark Ras Baraka and roughed up two Democratic members of Congress for standing up to ICE. Here is Rep. Menendez, Jr. slamming ICE for their attack on Democratic officials. Nothing makes MAGA happier than arresting a Black Mayor and beating up Democrats.

A hill I’ll keep dying on: Whatever your politics, the fact that so many U.S. leaders do not understand basic constitutional law—or willfully distort it—reflects extremely poorly on our country.

The Trump administration is rushing to bring the first group of white South Africans classified as refugees to the U.S. early next week. Meanwhile, they’re trying to deport other refugees already here. Make it make sense. Oh wait, Elon’s homeland. Got it.

NEW: @nbcnews.com confirmed last night that the Trump admin almost sent a dozen men from Vietnam, the Philippines, Laos, and Mexico to Libya, a country described as a “hellscape” for migrants where some have been SOLD INTO SLAVERY and many have been subjected to extraordinary horrors.

I've negotiated many settlement agreements & brokered sales deals. My understanding of a deal is having a signed agreement. Anything before can still fall apart. My stuff is small potatoes compared to country-to-country agreements. Announcing we may have deal is not a deal.

Not to be too pro technocrat, but it is astounding how much this country depended on the selflessness of like a few hundred thousand highly educated public servants who, for peanuts, made sure our food and medicine and environment etc were safe. And in return these servants were demonized.

UPDATE: The DOGE aide was told by ethics attorneys that he held stock in companies that agency employees are barred from owning — and was advised not to participate in any actions that could benefit him personally. Days later, he helped fire 90% of CFPB staff anyway.

Move the World Cup, the Olympics, and every international meeting out of the U.S. It is not safe to come here until conditions change. That's not alarmist. That's the reality we are looking at. It's never been like this my whole, getting to be longish, life.

Even if you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d still need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented. His argument fails even on its own terms.

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."
