Yes we are. Hopefully SCOTUS will give us a win soon.

Mischief Toys is a plaintiff in the lawsuit against the Trump administration seeking to hold his tariffs unconstitutional 🤔🤔🤔

I’m joking, but in all seriousness, it’ll be interesting to see who they manage to scrounge up to lead this investigation.

This is a transparent attempt to create a pretext for invoking the Insurrection Act. One provision applies when a group of people "opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws." And when it's (allegedly) the state itself...

NEW: Trump pardoned a porta-potty magnate named Arie Eric De Jong III who was sentenced to 5 months in federal prison for illegally disposing of sludge in cities across southern California.

Especially when @ididnothackthegovernment was available.

Was @InnocentofHackingGovUntilProvenGuilty too long?

obviously you're supposed to use @iallegedlyhackedthegovernment

not legal advice but if you're going to hack the Supreme Court e-filing system, maybe don't post about it on an Instagram called @ihackedthegovernment bsky.app/profile/anna...

In case you were wondering "what's the deal with that guy who was charged with hacking the Supreme Court's e-filing system?" This document has some answers: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

i’ll say it again, jennings is a contemptible liar and it is a disgrace that CNN puts him on television every night to spread bullshit

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Before you read about the FBI raid and think about how bad it is for our democracy, read about Hannah’s life this year and think about how unbelievably brutal it is for her. archive.ph/2025.12.27-1...

DOJ has occasionally claimed that it needs to search reporters' records to find the source of a security leak. But that's pretty obviously not what they were doing when they searched the Post reporter's house. They arrested a suspect days ago, after more or less catching him in the act.

Bondi statement on FBI search at Washington Post reporter’s home:

Hannah Natanson is an exceptional reporter and should never have been subjected to this type of extraordinary intimidation tactic. We have few details now, but it’s hard to interpret this as anything other than an attempt to squash the freedom of the press.

The majority of the leadership team inside Minnesota’s U.S. Attorney’s Office resigned Tuesday in protest of directives from federal officials in the wake of the killing of Renee Good, according to sources familiar with the decision.

Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

Even by the standards of Trump's DOJ, this one is worth a read. Always finding new and creative ways to make me say WTF.

Halligan’s response accuses the judge of “gross abuse of power,” among other things. Read the filing: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Typo alert: Describing stalled negotiations with opposing counsel in the Dan Richman case, Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward says he does not “err this grievance lightly.”

Responding to Judge Boasberg’s order to propose relief to 137 Venezuelans unlawfully sent to CECOT & then Venezuela, Secy Rubio says that addressing the issue now would cause “material damage to US foreign policy interests.” So apparently the govt's not going to.

Within a day or so of the shooting, myself, @ericcolumbus.bsky.social, and @annabower.bsky.social predicted on the Lawfare Podcast that this would be the focus of any investigation; there’s no joy in having been correct — just a growing sense of dismay.

INBOX: Former Special Counsel Jack Smith launches his own law firm alongside former Jan. 6 Committee counsel Tim Heaphy and DOJ alum David Harbach and Thomas Windom.

Will be interesting to see who suddenly cares about the president’s weaponization of the Justice Department now that it might threaten their bottom line $$$

Hard to overstate what a remarkable statement this is from a Republican senator — even a retiring one — accusing thte Trump White House of weaponizing DOJ to control the Fed: "It is now the independence and credibility of the Department of Justice that are in question."

This short statement by Jerome Powell deserves attention. He’s accusing the Trump administration of attempting to use a bogus criminal prosecution to extort compliance with White House demands to lower interest rates. Via @annabower.bsky.social
