Hey @jaywillis.net, @fleerultra.bsky.social , @notalawyer.bsky.social , Josh Blackman is going to do an AMA on May 19 if you wanted the opportunity to lob Qs to gauge how insane he’s gotten

Justice Jackson ends her dissent with a devastating condemnation of the Court's use of the shadow docket and the horror of what's happening here:

I do not read anything in the Trump White House's appeal to the Supreme Court that would, as a practical matter, prevent the government from legally disappearing *anyone* to a foreign torture prison by "mistake" ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

the backstop against this is criminal liability for the president *hand flying up to earpiece*

A thread on the moment and what it means for feds. The Civil Service Reform Act envisions 3 guardrails to protect civil servants: (1) An Office of Special Counsel to investigate allegations of prohibited personnel practices, (2) the Merit Systems Protection Board to hear cases, and (3) unions. 1/

Striking how much Judge Henderson’s opinion rises to the moment and emphasizes the historic importance of this while being legally excellent as well, to Walker holding water for the DOJ and just asserting the habeas claim as if it isn’t just a footnote in a monumental case like this

Pitch-perfect response to Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin from @georgetownlaw.bsky.social Dean Bill Treanor. It’s always a privilege and honor to be part of the GULC community (and to be Bill’s colleague), but *especially* today.

I don't get this "SSRI eyes" thing. You shoulda seen my eyes before them--lightless and void though continuing to exist as an affront to natural life, like a ramshackle lighthouse who's torch remains ever in the night and storm; unlit.

I went here and everyone knew her

V funny that the Supreme Court could potentially release the decision that the ATF can’t regulate ghost guns the same week we learn a CEO was merced with one

Alito arguing for mental illness/disability being something that could be conceived of as being protected to invalidate protection for trans people because the Court hasn’t protected disability is crazy-making

Lmao at Biden letting his DOJ investigate him, letting the GOP pressure the judge into rejecting the plea deal they had, only to pardon Hunter in the end

Hurts saying “fuck them refs”

That RPO TE flat with Goedert has been the eagles best play since Siranni got here. We gotta call that almost once a drive

The Eagles used a fullback for a month and the football gods cursed him for it

Dating a poly woman is like keeping a Gremlin—get her wet and she brings more lil freaks around for you

Every now and then Andy reminds you who he was with the eagles. That sequence to not even get to the 2 minute warning is one of them

The rush when you’re depressed but then espresso finally hits has gotta feel like the moment before going super saiyan

Oh so the refs are definitely point shaving right? Late hit for…a shove where the defender doesn’t even hit the ground. #eagles

In case you wanted a peek into the conservative mindset, the conservative Supreme Court subreddit is saying “eh this won’t happen, look at Judge Ho arguing for naturalized citizenship” and then when I replied the same guy is walking that back and endorsed the opposing argument there’s been no reply

@catbus.bsky.social early thoughts on the new horsegirl single??

Is this “Orwellian” enough for Alito, or does that only apply when he wishes to force social media companies to host dangerous misinfo?

This is v good news, but we’ve been so inundated with crazy nominations I had to double take to be sure this wasn’t about Kid Rock

I got off SSRIs too fast one time and had horrible brain zaps for weeks that were accompanied with vertigo. Anytime I tried to find what to do, every result was “don’t come off so fast next time.” Anyway that’s what all these democracy matters posts feel like to me

I think my favorite line delivery gotta be in Signs when theUte watching the alien footage on the news and Joaquin Phoenix says “vamos children!!” to the South American kids trying to peek through the bushes

You’re giving the chargers the ball mid field either way, and you left the take in the hands of your struggling kicker instead of Joe Burrow. Egregious

@minakimes.bsky.social When someone does what Andy just did—call timeout before the 4th down—I’ve always wanted a team to send their punt team out, then quickly swap to their offense and quick snapping it since the defense will probably have 12 on the field or the wrong personnel.

Another missed penalty against the chiefs in the final two minutes of a half. Very normal

I swear Mahomes goes super saiyan against the Bills wth
