NEW! DHS expands on its defiant middle finger to the Supreme Court's ruling that anyone subject to the Alien Enemies Act must get "reasonable time" to be able to "actually seek habeas relief."

They say they're only giving 12 HOURS for people to raise an objection, and 24 HOURS total to sue. Period!

U.S. citizens “self-deporting”?

What even does that mean?

That said, do you see what they’re doing now?

NEW: MORE BOMBSHELLS

Meanwhile…
The White House is…

In the wake of last night's SCOTUS ruling, Judge Boasberg cancels today's hearing in the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) case.

The plaintiffs have until April 16 to decide whether they still want to seek an injunction.

No word yet on how he'll handle the alleged violation of his now-vacated TROs.

If China has troops on the ground in Ukraine fighting on behalf of Russia it's a massive game-changer

My suspicion is China will disavow any Chinese troops as unaffiliated mercenaries

Uh guys? NBC just found out a DHS staffer accidentally added a journalist to an email thread about an ICE raid in Denver. Yeah, a completely separate incident.

THAT staffer is being punished — so why aren’t Hegseth & Waltz???

Time to focus on Marco Rubio's role as a chief Trump enabler. Rubio is helping execute some of Trump's worst designs: Terminating program tracking Ukrainian kids, deporting people to foreign gulags, wrecking USAID, arrests with zero due process.

Trump’s Most Dangerous Enabler Is Not Who You Think It Is
Kash Patel? Pam Bondi? Stephen Miller? No, no, and no. For now, the winner of this dubious title, and serial betrayer of his old principles, is the guy in Foggy Bottom.

Trump wants Americans to believe all 261 men the U.S. government abducted and deported to El Salvador are violent, tattooed monsters.

Yet another of Trump’s categorical lies. This lie is particularly heinous — and deeply dangerous.

Shackled, shaved, and brutalized, 261 men have been abducted…

Grateful for your years of service, Finn – and that the ACA helped you and your daughter get health care.
I was injured in the line of duty working as a sheriffs deputy and needed a spinal surgery. Had to accept a medical retirement at 40 yrs old. Lost my County health insurance for myself and my daughter. But no one would sell me insurance because of the injury. I had no insurance until the ACA.
