Remember when the Supreme Court gave a pass to a state that created a private right of action crafted with the purpose of evading federal law and judicial review?

States should experiment with a similar law to allow damages actions against federal agents in state court.

That'll go over well.

Just at a basic level, saying a judge’s orders can be ignored seems like it should disqualify you from being a judge as no one would ever need to follow your own orders

Before he got sick, I asked Richard Posner why he was criticizing the justices personally and shouldn’t he focus on the opinions instead. His answer on tape and on the record was those two things “go together,” and “it is a crappy court with crappy judges.”
He was right about a lot.

Thanks so much. Maybe you can ask your Republican colleagues why they hate America so much??? It is THEM who actually hate, all the while they were saying it was us.
They hate everything that makes up this country and this is why they are completely destroying it. WHY????

Is this why we’ve been seeing so many masked, unidentified ICE agents?

As of May 29, 2025, ICE has 635 active agreements in 40 states—deputizing local cops to act as ICE.
