Law Professor @rgoodlaw.bsky.social catches DOJ in a contradiction in the Abrego Garcia case. A major one.

NEW: In the case over Trump's unconstitutional order targeting the WilmerHale law firm, WilmerHale's lawyers at Clement & Murphy had to go back to court, asking the court to amend its judgment because DOJ is being appallingly intransigent. DOJ's Richard Lawson is really skating on thin ice here.

If the causation is here — if he really did resign over this — that’s huge. That is very indicative of some extremely questionable decisions.

Likely in light of the situation in LA, ICE leadership just put out a pretty outrageous message to politicians: “I’m demanding they stop.” He specifically calls out Mayor Wu and Hakeem Jeffries.

Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up. "Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons" Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

Harvey Milk served his country in the U.S. Navy. He was an early and powerful leader of the modern gay rights movement. Stripping his name from a Navy ship—and doing so deliberately during Pride Month—is a shameful insult to his legacy & to LGBTQ+ Americans who serve. abcnews.go.com/Politics/heg...

A program to relocate Afghans who worked with U.S. service members during two decades of war is being targeted by the White House for shutdown by the fall. Advocates fear hundreds of thousands of Afghans awaiting resettlement in the U.S. could be shut out if Operation Enduring Welcome is defunded.

Bigots in his neighborhood burned his house down, killed his dogs, and murdered him . . . all for being gay in Texas. So don't you dare complain that there's no reason for #LGBT people to have a Pride holiday that announces our right to live safely and openly. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

🚨Heard about this earlier today; ICE is expanding to arrests at ATD (alternatives to detention) case management check-ins. Dozens of people got texts to show up weeks in advance of their normal check-in, and ended up detained. Three women let go were told to come back tomorrow with their kids.

I fully anticipate some type of DADT revival, and the question is how do you reconcile a fighting force of honorably serving members. Ask anyone who has been in combat, they can care less who you chose to love, they care if you can fight. 👏WE ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE 👏

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

Let’s talk for a moment about some of the more subtle ways that the press acts as a mouthpiece for law enforcement. Actor Jonathan Joss was shot to death on Sunday. I don’t know what happened; I wasn’t there. But his husband said a homophobic neighbor shot him as part of an explicit hate crime. /1
