WHAT COMES NEXT? This should go off like a nuclear bomb in the AEA litigation. It means (1) that ICE Is not complying with the SCOTUS order in JGG, (2) that DOJ is not accurately representing the admin's behavior in court; 1/

NEW! DHS expands on its defiant middle finger to the Supreme Court's ruling that anyone subject to the Alien Enemies Act must get "reasonable time" to be able to "actually seek habeas relief." They say they're only giving 12 HOURS for people to raise an objection, and 24 HOURS total to sue. Period!

Columbia is investigating these students. Agree or disagree with the students, but all of the writings and statements mentioned in the piece are constitutionally protected political speech.

And there it is. Donald Trump is now selling “Trump 2028” hats on his official website, even though it is unconstitutional for him to run again.

Holy crap. Here are 91 pages of letters that 14 House Democrats just sent to the nine law firms that have paid off Trump to not attack them. Lots of Qs aimed at sorting out if they violated federal bribery/anti-fraud/racketeering laws. min.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Once again, just months ago, the Mental & Physical Acuity of Geriatric Presidents was The Great Political Issue Of Our Time. This? Won't even be in the papers, let alone on the front page, by tomorrow. Also, again, this is obscene & should immediately end his presidency: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

Here’s how you know the market is fake. Tesla has its earnings call yesterday. It badly missed its targets. Its sales are down 71% from this quarter last year. But the stock is up nearly 8% right now.

Look at this sweet, innocent baby —small, scared, utterly alone in a courtroom. No lawyer. No protection. No justice. Trump cut legal aid for migrant children, tearing away their last lifeline. They say they care about families. But this? This is sanctioned cruelty. @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social

This is why it's stupid for dem consultants to keep insisting "don't hit them on immigration." Hit them on what they're strong on, because they're doing terrible shit and you can make them not so strong any more

BREAKING: SCOTUS allows signature collection to begin on a qualified immunity-ending ballot measure in Ohio. A district court issued an injunction against Ohio AG Yost's effort to stop the ballot measure. The Sixth Circuit — and now SCOTUS — have refused to stay that injunction pending appeal.

I am of the firm belief that the Trump Administration’s apparent allergy to ever admitting it was wrong is undercutting its goals. I think if they had brought Kilmar back, SCOTUS becomes a lot more willing to let them deport anyone under the AEA proclamation, at least until the merits ruling. 1/
