Incredibly powerful opinion chronicling the awfulness in Whipple and the ways it interfered with the right to counsel.
One key part of the ruling (that ICE will likely appeal ASAP); Judge Brasel bars ICE from transferring anyone out of Minnesota within 72 hours of arrest.

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

Two notes about this.
This was the VERY rare case where an FBI Agent, rather than an HSI agent, filed the affidavit. I gotta believe there's still enough institutional culture among Feebs to REALLY hate having been lied to. HSI not so much.
