Ellis: [Bovino] admitted that he lied about whether a rock hit him before he deployed tear gas in Little Village."

Your faith says you can't eat dinner with Jewish people?

This sort of mentality wouldn't exist, and we wouldn't have to try and undo it through awkward application of injunctive relief, if people could just sue officers for damages.

oh my god they actually did it lmao

Oh, fer fuckssakes.

(1) You can't sanction someone *before* they've violated a court order. (2) If you're asking simply whether a cause of action can ultimately end in a remedy against DHS or certain officers, the answer is "yes, partially (but not likely monetarily), and eventually, but that comes much later."

Fed. judge issues TRO to address constitutional deficiencies in ICE detention facility in Broadville, Illinois. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

just want to reiterate that the first amendment isn't something you "hide behind," it's something that constrains the government's ability to limit your inalienable rights. that distinction is very important

im not mad. please dont put in the newspaper that i got mad.

¿Porque no los dos?

I know most of us are listening to SCOTUS' tariffs argument, but don't miss @djbyrnes1.bsky.social live-posting the Chicago trial about ICE attacking protesters outside of Broadview detention.

They thought "mass deportations" meant millions of cartel members getting shipped out, but now they're starting to realize that if Trump is going after random grandmas it's because either (A) there aren't millions of cartel members or (B) Trump is choosing not to deport them (and both are Bad).

4 court hearings today: 1) Review of Trump's tariffs in SCOTUS 2) Hearing on FBI's review of Jim Comey material w/o new warrant 3) Closing arguments and deliberation for sandwich guy in DC 4) Preliminary injunction hearing for CBP/ICE invasion of Chicago, featuring Greg Bovino vids

UPDATE: No.

Another often overlooked but important election. Loudoun County Public Schools has been ground zero for targeting by the Trump administration over trans students, and chose to protect their students. Pro-trans candidates Chandler and Svenson are winning, and anti-trans Munoz-Melendez is losing.

Some amazing quotes in here from Judge Ellis, who reportedly had to intervene in Gregory Bovino's deposition on Thursday when the latest in a "revolving door of attorneys" for DOJ was unprepared for questions. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/03/b...

“The actions yesterday — in which FBI Special Agents were terminated and then reinstated shortly after, and then only to be fired again today - highlight the chaos that occurs when long-standing policies and processes are ignored." www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field. In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront. By me & @carolinehaskins.bsky.social:

9th Cir. holds that it did not violate the takings clause for officers to fire dozens of tear gas canisters through a shop's walls, door, roof, and windows to get at a fugitive, which damaged the store and inventory. Held: a public safety exception applies. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/op...

9th Cir. rejects claim that the requirement that men register with the Selective Service System, but not women, violates the ERA. Held: the ERA has not been ratified and published or certified by the Archivist. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/op...

Mamdani already moving the needle on sex offenders, you love to see it

Btw, demanding Vought's resignation should still be a non-negotiable demand for re-opening government.

It appears that Lindsey Halligan was confused by Judge Currie's order to provide COMPLETE grand jury transcripts related to her role in Comey's indictment. Judge has ordered her to cough up the missing transcripts by tomorrow at 5pm. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I voted by mail weeks ago (knowing I would be in Texas rn), but the DH reports that our polling place has leftover Halloween candy. He was the fourth person in line this morning bc he's crazy excited about voting (and stopped on his way home from the gym).

Trump says he will violate a court order.

NEWS The Trump admin's announced that they'll pay HALF the SNAP benefits due this month, but that "is not consistent with" the federal judge's order, the coalition that brought the lawsuit says. The coalition just asked the judge to enforce his TRO. Background www.allrisenews.com/p/smith-trum...

Plaintiffs in the Chicago lawsuit against DHS are asking to unseal an Oct. 20 transcript, and the redactions make it sound kind of juicy storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The words "timely filed indictment" are doing a lot of unsupported-but-loadbearing work in DOJ's argument that AG Bondi can ratify Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan's indictment against James Comey notwithstanding her appointment problem. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Specifically naming the Comey and James prosecutions in this end-run around the appointment problem isn't going to help with the selective and vindictive prosecution motions.

60 Minutes Edits Donald Trump Telling Them 60 Minutes Should Edit Donald Trump Talking About How 60 Minutes Paid Him For Editing Kamala Harris 60 Minutes is under new management and things are getting stupid faster than you might expect. Last night’s episode featured President Trump, which is…

If you're from a state where it takes *months* to implement a reduced SNAP payment based on numbers the federal government is providing, I think you need to make some state government changes badly.

10th Cir. holds that noncitizen who successfully petitions for habeas corpus from immigration detention can seek EAJA fees because habeas in this posture is a purely civil action. www.ca10.uscourts.gov/sites/ca10/f...

JUST IN: 11th Circuit politely tells Judge Aileen Cannon to get moving on motions seeking to unseal remainder of Special Counsel Jack Smith's final report. Basically, gives her 60 days to act or appeals court will take further action. Doc: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

UPDATE: the Trump administration has filed a status report in which it says it will spend the full amount of SNAP contingency funds (which will mean households get a partial payment some time later this month). Status report --> storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Once again: Republicans in Congress could stop all of this tomorrow if they wanted to. Every day, they wake up and decide they prefer this to removing Trump.

Also over the weekend, fed. judge issues a PI blocking Trump from federalizing and deploying National Guard troops to Oregon. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

ICYMI, Trump posted that he wanted to fund SNAP "as soon as possible . . . [i]f we are given the appropriate legal direction." So a federal judge said "here's the legal direction" and ordered either full payment by today or partial by Wednesday. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

it is not remarked upon enough that these guys just genuinely and sincerely hate america and hate americans
