All of the increasingly bellicose rhetoric from an ever-widening array of admin officials makes it feel like they realize this was not the test case they wanted for this policy and are worried the removal plans and any public support for them could crumble very easily.

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges. Good luck! 🫡

Visited the WWII Memorial in DC today, and this quote by Truman really felt ironic. What our vets are suffering under this administration is unconscionable. We cannot pay back their debts, correct, but why are we intentionally hurting them now? Where is the gratitude they deserve? #MomSky

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

What's the evidence linking Abrego Garcia to MS-13? This exhaustive @rparloff.bsky.social review finds that the whole thing boils down to a vague, unexamined police statement that he "was confirmed to be a ranking member of the MS-13 gang by a proven and reliable source.” It's shockingly flimsy.
