one hell of a scrivener's error
A federal judge ruled Thu morning that no order of removal for Abrego Garcia had ever existed. By Thu evening, an immigration judge had conjured a “Immigration Court’s Sua Sponte Order Correcting Scrivener’s Error," Abrego Garcia's lawyers tell the judge in the emergency overnight filing:

This. This was the formative event of my generation & our entire politics in 🇺🇸. The structural break after which we were no longer a full democracy, when 5 Wizards In Robes decided they were a super-legislature & counting all the actual votes didn’t matter. The rest has been 25 years of commentary.
25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

continue purchasing... or purchasing again? which is it?

here's the problem with constantly lying: eventually your lies contradict each other
Leavitt: "President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing again American soybeans, which is something China wasn't doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or the country at the time."

it's a *civil proceeding* because it's a *civil infraction*

NOT A FUCKING CRIME

fuck these goons forever
Should be, but the current state of the law is that deportation is a civil proceeding for which your due process rights do not entitle you to counsel. It’s a categorical (and racist) approach that ignores the reality of the experience and outcomes.

That's not a fun task and he's not enjoying that responsibility...if they keep the govt closed, it's gonna get more & more painful"

So many of us came so very unwillingly to this place of viewing the Supreme Court as unworthy of being viewed as a judicial body. Unworthy of veneration, unworthy of respect.

So profoundly reluctantly.

But, good lord have they earned it.

you will never be amenable enough to the demands of a fascist tantrum to make it stop without selling your soul and becoming a fascist yourself.

there is no amount of compliance that is acceptable short of absolute indoctrination.

the more you bend, the more they push you down.

also I'm sure there are receipts of most of these scolds celebrating the death and/or deportation of liberals and other outgroups
there was never going to be a world in which the right didn’t claim the left was celebrating the death of charlie kirk, no matter how respectable anyone tried to be.

This country is basically the really drunk guy at the bar that no one wants to talk to, his “friends” even try to avoid him, because eventually he is going to try to start a fight that he can’t win by himself and when he loses he’s going to absolutely walk his tab.

Everyone knows the first rule of being poor is NO. FUN. EVER.
The *current mayor* of NYC is VERY VERY NOT ANGRY about how successful #zcavengerhunt was. Don't put on social media that he's angry.

Anyway, the official position of the current mayor of NYC is that no one should ever have fun in the city.

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats.

Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.
