ICE is refusing to provide emergency medical care to people in their custody.

We're demanding a federal judge intervene so our clients can get the lifesaving care they need.

In an emergency motion, attorneys asked a federal judge to order ICE to immediately provide lifesaving medical care to two detainees held at the California City Detention Facility.

One of the dumbest EXECUTIVE ORDERS and also so so so reckless and dangerous.

If fentanyl is a "weapon of mass destruction," then will the people who procure it, store it, & distribute it be treated & prosecuted as terrorists?

If so, good luck, MAGA. Good luck.

@samanthamichaels.bsky.social has been a criminal justice reporter for over a decade. She has lived in an authoritarian country overseas.

But she has never seen a police presence like the one in ICE-occupied Memphis.

Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

This is the big story:

1) The President ordered a killing campaign outside of the law.
2) He got OLC to make up a fake war to justify killing real people.
3) And he got the military to carry out the killings.

Purporting to justify those killings is aiding in covering up that plain reality 👇

My electrician is a green card holder who's been here since he was a kid. He got married to a citizen, applied for citizenship, went to court for the papers and when he got there ICE kidnapped him and he's been locked up for a month.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.

This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.
