This is a ballot in Pierre Poilievre’s riding. If this isn’t election interference, I don’t know what is. This is so rigged to favour Poilievre. A blatent attempt at vote splitting. #cdnpoli

Two girls, 18 & 19. Can you imagine if they were your daughters? "They reported being subjected to full-body scans, strip searches, and issued green prison uniforms. They were placed in a holding cell overnight alongside long-term detainees, including individuals accused of serious crimes."

This thread and the piece at the end are incredible. SCOTUS ruled just before 1am and Chris wrote a thread through the night and published a full, polished analysis at 4:41am. I must note that Chris wrote this on the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s ride — to the hour.

1. The DOJ has sent threatening letters to several medical journals, focused around whether these journals are spreading misinformation that harms the American people and suppressing alternative viewpoints. I study how the norms and institutions of science facilitate discovery and self-correction.

Judge Wilkinson's opinion for a 3-0 panel in the Abrego Garcia case is written for the parties, but also for the public & perhaps a nod at SCOTUS. I go through it in this piece, which I think provides a much-needed boost for all of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-fourth-c...

This "WHO'S NEVER COMING BACK" document published by the White House should be "EXHIBIT A" in any forthcoming hearing where a judge/justice has asked the White House to prove how it is "facilitating" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

The Trump-Supreme Court battle is not really the crisis. The crisis is here now. Trump is enacting an insidious coordinated attack on our institutions of democratic accountability, designed to crater democracy before next fall. 1/ A long 🧵to explain the plan & how we stop it.

NEW: Fourth Circuit shoots down the Trump administration’s efforts to appeal Judge Xinis’s order requiring it to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. “We shall not micromanage the efforts of a fine district judge attempting to implement the Supreme Court’s recent decision.”

INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
