Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

we need to be saying again and again and again that even if 100% of these people had a criminal record none of this would be okay. people who are criminalized are humans and deserve human rights. people are systematically criminalized based solely on the color of their skin, poverty, language etc

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

It's got to be set on a "dead man's switch" right? Log in every half hour or a habeas petition is filed based on the last location your phone pinged from — that's certainly the history and tradition they taught at Scalia Law 🙃

Lord have mercy. Because clearly we don’t anymore. Shame. Shame! Shame, #SCOTUS.

I'm not a lawyer, but it seems like SCOTUS just said the government is allowed to disappear anyone it wants from the street and throw them into a Central American torture pit as long as they give the victims a chance to say "wait, what" before the most conservative district court in the system?

I noted recently that I have a very significant trade deficit with farmers. In fact, I don't grow any food and they don't buy anything from me. I haven't calculated the tariffs I should impose to stop them from ripping me off by providing me with food to buy. /sarcasm

We elected a man everyone who matters in this country knew was an idiot. The bulk of them refused to say so openly and directly — either because they thought he could do something for them or because there are political and journalistic norms against speaking that way.

Personally I’d rather have a Secretary of HHS who prevented my child’s death than one who attended their funeral. Vaccines save lives. It is 2025. Kids in the US do not have to die of vaccine-preventable disease anymore.

It's getting buried, but Houston will almost certainly not have representation in Congress until January 2027. Democratic Rep. Sylvester Turner died nearly a month ago and Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott has simply decided not to call a special election to fill the seat.
