Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

I honestly think that this is a sanctionable brief. It falsely claims that the District Court "forc[ed] the government to detain [8 men] at a military base in Djibouti." This is false. As Judge Murphy himself repeatedly emphasized, it was the DOJ that requested the option of holding them overseas!

DOJ files for 30 more days to answer complaint in Abrego Garcia. That’s needlessly dilatatory, but it’s the sort of motion that is routinely granted. Not this time. Judge Xinis denies it and orders them to file today. More concrete cost for their shabby lawyering and squirrelly evasions.
