—Justice David Davis, explaining for the Court in Ex Parte Milligan (1865) that if a President can “substitute military force for and to the exclusion of the laws, . . . republican government is a failure” [2/2]

It’ll be appealed to the Sixth Circuit, but no time soon, since the BIA remanded for a ruling on another issue and so we don’t have a final order yet. The appeal of another BIA determination relying on this one may get to a court of appeals before this one does

I have the version of this album that he did *without* Ozzy — those songs on the A side, and eight more on the B side — but somehow it seems inadequate now

Graf was #1 when she was 19, but Sabatini was #3 and fits the story.

Border Patrol has long claimed the right, within 100 miles of a border, to demand ID from people they think might be in the U.S. w/o authorization and to detain them if the matter isn’t cleared up to the agent’s satisfaction. Most of the U.S. population lives within 100 miles of a border

In fact, federal law has required noncitizens to carry their papers since 1950. (It’s a little complicated.) I wrote about it here — papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Judge Ho was writing in support of the D. Md. standing order, right?

Yeah. Historically, “withholding of removal” was a key form of humanitarian relief for folks who couldn’t get asylum - w/ withholding, you couldn’t be sent to your home country, and as a practical matter that meant you wouldn’t be removed at all. Now it just means you’ll be sent to South Sudan.

That’s also what I said following the argument, so I guess we’ll see …

I had assumed that the OP was referencing William O. Douglas (although he was a WWI-era veteran, not a WWI veteran)

It’s customary to short-form case names using the name of the private party, not the governmental one. (Kleindienst, as Attorney General, was a named party in a *lot* of cases, and we can’t call them all “Kleindienst.”)

But first you have to mark all of the citations, which is a pain in the butt (at least it is when I do it) — *then* you run the macro

The next page is even better — “Table of Authorities [INSERT]”. I’m guessing that nobody entered the tags on the authorities at all. They’re running out of paralegals at Federal Programs?

Agree re Yevtushenko. Brodsky had just arrived in the U.S. a few months before the strip was published, after being forcibly deported from the Soviet Union, and — though he had taught himself English as a teenager — he wouldn’t have been doing tours

Me too

Also, yes, that’s @silkys13.bsky.social’s book — on my summer reading list

The two of us can report that all of my students know what habeas corpus is
