If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

As I’ve said, the Roberts court may well be remembered as the most corrupt, disastrous iteration of that particular institution.
very excited to learn that the constitution allows the federal government to disappear people to foreign gulags beyond the reach of any judicial remedy
NEW: Chief Justice Roberts has issued an administrative stay in the Abrego Garcia case, temporarily relieving the Trump administration of its duty to return him from El Salvador. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Farmers are going to run to Congress for another handout to deal with the retaliatory tariffs and the answer from Dems has to be "no."
This isn't out of retribution, it's because we can't keep creating escape hatches for GOP members of Congress. For the benefit of all, keep the pressure on them.

Hey future foreign leaders that visit the (corrupt) Oval Office - DO NOT WEAR A FUCKING SUIT. Wear jeans and a polo since it’s obviously turned into a circus. Don’t muddy up your good clothes!

Are We Now the Bad Guys?
There was a time, not too long ago, when America stood as the beacon of freedom, the defender of democracy, and the steadfast ally of those who resisted oppression.

Trump got Mexico to send the same 10,000 troops to the border that Biden already got them to commit.
Trump got Canada to agree to the same measures to fight fentanyl that Biden already got them to agree to six weeks ago.
Wow. What a dealmaker!

After Biden pardoned Jan. 6 police officers, Trump pardoned Jan. 6 criminals
The new president agreed to let violent criminals back onto American streets, and then peddled discredited conspiracy theories and lies about the attack.

President Biden pardons his son Hunter Biden
The decision, which was first reported by NBC News, is a reversal for the president, who repeatedly said he would not use his authority to pardon his son or commute his sentence.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.
Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.
