Trump cannot unilaterally terminate a settlement agreement. He can breach a settlement agreement.

'Why are high fertility people always so weird?' A weekend with the pronatalists

I wonder what the armed folks who attacked FEMA because of rumors under Biden will do with this?

is he ordering us to work in the mines.?

The United States Supreme Court, as packed by the Federalist Society, as supported by the Randy Barretts and Ilya Shapiros and Jonathan Turleys of America, is suited to squabble over what “facilitate” means but not to achieve justice or protect or defend the United States Constitution.

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

Listening to Ken Burns’ The Civil War again (Appomatox 160th anniversary passed on Wednesday) - and I’ll tell you, if you think Lincoln would’ve been a Republican today, you’re drunk! ROFL.

On FB I wrote a post about Trump firing federal prosecutor Adam Schleifer last week - my MAGA oldest brother responded (below) - and they are seriously poisoned. I’m reading about “fundamental transformation” and Obama and they actually think there was a plan to destroy America.

hard hitting

even if we throw these people out of power the enduring legacy of Trump is that nobody can ever again trust the US government to keep a promise, and that will come back to bite us over and over again what a shameful thing this is

We’re fighting antisemitism on college campuses. That’s why we pulled Holocaust history from the library of the Naval Academy but left two copies of Mein Kampf.

“When I say it, they do it.” - even if EVERYONE involved knows it’s wrong!

Note that the AUSA who got stuck with this now will have to micromanage this w/every top manager at DOJ. And even then she'll STILL likely end up getting fired as a scapegoat.

I'm an atheist working at a Catholic college and faith almost never comes up in day-to-day because we're just doing our work. WTF does anti-Christian bias mean, do your job - practice whatever faith you like on your free time.

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.

5:00 PM tomorrow feels a little like the old Robin Williams bit about british police having no real teeth.
