DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, and Still Overstating Its Progress Elon Musk now says his group will produce only 15 percent of the savings it promised. But even that estimate is inflated with errors and guesswork. Gift article www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/u...

It is very good question and one I’ve been asking for months. If there is an international agreement with El Salvador for these renditions, the Trump administration is legally required under the Case-Zablocki Act to share it with Congress. To my knowledge, they have not done so.

Revealing just how selectively this administration respects national sovereignty. With Canada and Greenland, Trump threatens invasion enthusiastically. With El Salvador, Trump sees sovereignty as sacrosanct.

Before folks overreact to headlines about the judge’s ruling in the Khalil case, please note that (1) it was an immigration judge (IJ), not a federal district court; and (2) the IJ had no power to consider Khalil’s constitutional objections. This particular decision was a fait accompli.

Kirkland & Ellis, Allen Overy Shearman Sterling, Simpson Thatcher, and Latham & Watkins should be viewed as administration shills now. It would be a mistake to engage them in any matter in which your interests and positions are not congruent with this administration’s.

The Smart People said "Abolish ICE" was too radical. Then ICE kidnapped students, sent innocent people to a mega prison, broke into a car to take a mom from her daughter, and tried questioning elementary kids while lying that they had parents permission. Ask yourself: which part is more "radical"?

honestly, the government needs to pick a lane here/can't have it both ways they can't on the one hand constantly claim people with gender dysphoria have a mental disorder but also claim it doesn't qualify as a mental disorder resulting in ineligibility for nondiscrimination protections

With everything else going on, do not forget the ongoing attacks on trans people and the attempts to block their access to care and erase them from society.

columbia university has an impossible decision to make: 1) acquiesce to trump's demand for federal oversight, resulting in no one wanting to teach or attend 2) fight back & possibly lose federal funding, leaving them unable to support faculty/staff lose/lose, but the 2nd preserves their dignity

Are we not paying El Salvador for this prison? They’re not just doing for shits and giggles, right? If we are compensating them, then surely the government can effectuate the return of someone.

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.

So my client is a paraplegic. One day, a Fulton County police department asked him to come down and answer a few questions. A woman alleged that he KICKED her door down and assaulted her. And they were calling him down to arrest him, not talk to him.
