I think people are mostly in shock. There are tons of meetings and Zoom calls happening (and apparently a good crowd out there today… we’re out of town), but yeah, don’t disagree.

Thanks. He dismissed it immediately after he was reminded of Rule 11. And we’re both citizens. But yeah. It would be funny if these weren’t people with significant governmental power now.

I just want to know what's up with the Brecht footnote. Is that like an ironic "troll" thing that Nazis do or is it dumber than that?

Rehnquist and Burger agree with you. I don’t think it’s an accident that the case announcing this right was decided at a time that many political activists were using their trials as a form of activism, often pro se, to the great consternation of judges and the professional bar.

He’s 100% signaling that he would view that VERY skeptically if the government decided to re-detain him.

Given the circumstances of the above, Kilmar faces real jeopardy. But unlike what happened to him in March, now he's going to have a lawyer and he's going to get what he was denied all this time: DUE PROCESS.
He'll also be in the US with his family, not shoved into a prison and held incommunicado.

Oh, I'm totally fine, and he's done a lot worse to others (particularly students)! But thanks <3. I'm glad to know who's behind it, though the document suggests that it might also being the Jefferson Council, which is . . . less fun.

That really sucks, Em, I'm sorry. But also, that's what they're banking on.

Oh wow, yeah, it's definitely him, right? The whole thing is damning but this sealed it for me.
