😂😂 “minutes of fun” (H/T @robhuebel.bsky.social )

I love this project called Justice in Motion: judges riding through PA, OH, and MI in minivans (the new "riding circuit"?) to discuss the importance of the rule of law in everyday life as we mark America's 250th. Check it out if it is coming near you! www.justiceinmotion.us

It’s funny how all the criticisms of Democratic socialism end up sounding like endorsements

This collusion should have made a bigger splash. The instant example is awful, but there's nothing to stop them from running roughshod over the APA in all sorts of contexts.

🚨Per @kyledcheney.bsky.social, earlier today the DOJ and Texas colluded with Reed O’Connor to erase a Biden-era regulation permitting immigration judges to administratively close removal cases. Texas filed this morning, DOJ filed a consent decree hours later, and O’Connor entered final judgment.

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/

This is the perfect example of one photo being worth a thousand words.

Okay but What would YOUR totally gratuitous White House lawn event be, if YOU were the mad king of a dying superpower

The president of the United States is watching a cage fight under a bunch of untested metal structures in a lightning storm.

"Real men show their bravery during storms by holding lightning rods and testing if God loves them." Pass it on.

And a huge risk of toxic masculinity and fraud

Cheers break out in DC as Trump’s name (illegally added) is removed from the building

BREAKING: This ICE flight has just landed. Central African Republic becomes the 27th country to take third-country nationals from the Trump administration. The Third-Country Removal Tracker has been updated. gillianbrockell.com/tracking-all...

The ICE Air flight (OAE2272) has just departed Ghana and is now en route, likely stopping in Central African Republic next. This flight is carrying Iranians, Afghans and others granted protection by a U.S. IJ.

This flight is on its way to CAR by way of Ghana carrying shackled asylum seekers to a war-torn country where they will very likely be confined and coerced to return to the countries they fled. The next administration must pledge to make reparations for this unconscionable cruelty.

Among the many lessons to be learned from this administration is that it is crucial to have a government comprised of people who are capable of empathy.

‼️The ICE deportation flight (OAE2272) has just taken off from Alexandria, LA for Ghana. This will be the 1st leg of the flight before stopping in Central African Republic with Iranian, Afghan & Syrian nationals.

This is unconscionable cruelty.

A reminder that judges are NOT supposed to be neutral emotionless umpires calling balls and strikes. That's right wing propaganda invented by the Federalist Society. They're supposed to be impartial purveyors of justice, not neutral robots chained to the text regardless of the consequences.

I mean, you have to admire the honesty and openness of these federal prosecutors vouching BY ACTUALLY USING THE WORD VOUCH That’s like the time they got Avenatti to basically recite the elements of extortion

IT IS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO HOLD ELECTED OFFICE TO NOT DO AND SAY THINGS THAT WILL MAKE LIFE WORSE FOR TRANS KIDS. TRANS KIDS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR POLITICAL AMBITIONS.

There are only two things you need to be a true New Yorker: 1. Presence 2. Intent to remain

One of the most frustrating parts of the legal system is how long everything takes, and how many people think it's because their lawyer doesn't care. In reality, it often takes longer BECAUSE they care. A "rocket docket" is often a great way to cut corners.

Forcing immigrant detainees to work for their captors isn’t just exploitative It’s unconstitutional Trump's policies are dramatically expanding both the immigration detention population and the nation’s Thirteenth Amendment crisis ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

We are enslaving people. Again. Yes, even though we abolished slavery. “[H]istory did not end in 1965.” Shelby County v. Holder. 570 U.S. 529, 552 (2013) (Roberts, C.J.).

Cautionary thread: do not confess to AI lawyers devised by professionally stupid techbros

NEW: On Friday the Trump admin announced a proposed work permit regulation that could make it dramatically more difficult for many immigrants in the US to work to support themselves and their families, including DACA recipients, asylum seekers, and the spouses of skilled workers.

Narrator: He does not call the shots.

I'll say this for the Supreme Court they're making it easier for me to convince people of the necessity and urgency of court reform

Due process is the single most important right you have, because it's the one that protects all the others. No one has ever had their civil rights violated, their rights to life and liberty violated, without their right to due process being violated FIRST. It's why protecting it is so important.

Supreme Court Holds, 6-3, That Black People Voting Violates Rights Of White Voters

The Purcell Principle means it always too late for courts to fix something racist and never too late for states to do something racist

What happens if the election is already happening, John and Sam? What happens?? Will that "result in voter confusion"? Might that cause "consequent incentive to remain away from the polls"?

The Supreme Court has reduced democracy by 600%
