@jjindc.bsky.social Any news on flights?

STARTING NOW: Judge Boasberg holds an emergency hearing on reportedly imminent Alien Enemies Act deportations. 🧵

NEW: DOGE is knitting DHS immigration records together with IRS, Social Security, and voting records into a master database, sources tell WIRED. Experts say it could be used for a surveillance tool of unprecedented scope. This is by @makenakelly.bsky.social and @telliotter.bsky.social

Further evidence of the ongoing collapse in transatlantic travel.

MORE NEWS: Judge Boasberg has called an emergency hearing in 35 minutes on lawyers for Alien Enemies Act targets’ urgent claim that Trump administration is resuming summary deportation.

BREAKING: A court ruled that our case challenging Rümeysa Öztürk's unlawful detention should move forward in Vermont, instead of Louisiana, and that ICE must transfer her there. Nobody should be shipped to a detention facility halfway across the country for writing an op-ed.

With a compagnon from El Salvador government present during the whole conversation, you can't take statements from a prisoner factually. The man is fighting for his life and against retaliation in the US against his wife and kids ffs.

Ach, #Fico is op cursus geweest.. Nu net als in Rusland, Belarus, Georgië en Hongarije..

NEW: In response to reports that President Trump is planning to deport dozens more people with under 24 hours notice, we filed an emergency request for Judge Boasberg to block the administration from carrying out these deportations.

An alarming allegation in this motion—but unsurprising for those who have been keeping tabs on Trump judges for a while: "The district court in the Northern District of Texas, where Bluebonnet is located, has refused to act on Petitioners’ emergency motion for a TRO or hold a status conference."

If I were a senator, @democrats.senate.gov I would be ON A PLANE to either Bluebonnet in Abilene or Harlingen NOW where Trump is about to send more people to CECOT under the Alien Enemies Act with no meaningful due process.

JUST IN: Lawyers for Venezuelan nationals say they’re being loaded onto buses this hour in anticipation of a new wave of Alien Enemies Act deportations, w less than 24 hours notice. They’re asking Judge Boasberg for an immediate restraining order requiring 30 days notice.

Judge Amy Berman Jackson has suspended efforts to implement large-scale terminations at CFPB until she rules on whether it’s a violation of her injunction against dismantling the agency.

Van Hollen: "This case is not only about one man, as important as that is. It is about protecting fundamental freedoms and the fundamental principle in the Constitution for due process that protects everyone who resides in America."

Trump says he’s moving forward on stripping civil service protections, making it easier to fire government workers. “If these government workers refuse to advance the policy interests of the President, or are engaging in corrupt behavior, they should no longer have a job.”

Trump's counterterror czar Gorka responds to backlash following suggestion that critics of deportations could be charged for material support for terrorism. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/terror-cza...

No way SpaceX (or anyone) could create a "Golden Dome" missile shield for the US. Israel's Iron Dome works (mostly) because Israel is a small area—America is not—and it shoots down smaller, shorter-range projectiles. When Iran launched, Iron Dome couldn't stop it. Boondoggle to grift billions.

Niet vergeten dat Omtzigt en een groepje NLse journos & politici bloed aan hun handen hebben omdat ze meededen aan lastercampagne van het Kremlin en zodoende hulporganisatie Mayday Rescue en oprichter James Le Mesurier kapot maakten. Omtzigt stond toen vooraan: www.groene.nl/artikel/wij-...
