Really weird to see the United States Attorney General commenting on an active grand jury investigation—let alone referring to a potential subject of that investigation as a “bad actor.”

justthenews.com/accountabili...
The Attorney General also blasted ex-CIA Director John Brennan, who got recent subpoenas from a grand jury investigating his testimony, for trying to get the chief federal judge in Miami to intervene in her investigation. "Public reports of a recent letter sent to Cecilia M. Altonaga, the Chief Judge of the Federal District of Florida, by John Brennan's defense attorneys, seeking judicial intervention in any legitimate grand jury investigation by the executive branch, shows these bad actors are clearly concerned about their liability and want to preserve a two-tiered justice system: one for them and one for everyone else. No more," Bondi said to Just the News.

Awful, awful news. Bob Kafka, a pioneer in disability rights, is gone. May he rest in peace.

MAGA and DHS are melting down over Kilmar Ábrego García “making TikToks.”

I went to look at the video they’re complaining about, and all he’s doing is lip sync to a Christian song in Spanish about trusting God amid trials and tribulations.

Welcome back artists! 🖌️🎨✨ Quote post with an old piece that you still like!

This was a lot of work lmao #art
The FFXIV trend where you would replace the Warrior of Light with your own character in the poster art for Newfound Adventure (Patch 8.1), featuring my WoL, Fang, a purple Xaela Au Ra. The art is done in pencil but colored and composited digitally. Originally the characters in the sky in the background were all the WoL in different jobs, but this time some of them are replaced by the WoLs of my two friends: Zinnia (green-haired Elezen) and I'lhaia (pink-haired Miqote). In one, I'lhaia is spacing out with the disconnect icon over her head. The extras in the background city are other FFXIV player characters we had played and/or raided with.

Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.
A Wealth Tax Floated in California Has Billionaires Thinking of Leaving
It’s uncertain whether the proposal will reach the statewide ballot in November, but some billionaires like Peter Thiel and Larry Page may be unwilling to take the risk.

Judge Howell is not one of "these judges." She's a good jurist. I just think she got this wrong. Or at least, if she's right, the imperative for Congress to erase this power becomes even higher.

This situation genuinely makes me yearn for non-delegation doctrine to come back.

Because of the way this was handled, we know that the order was backed by Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, Barrett, and Jackson. Justice Kavanuagh would have denied DOJ's request on more narrow grounds.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court rejects the Trump administration’s request to deploy National Guard troops in Illinois at this time, over the dissenting votes of Justices Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch.

Background: www.lawdork.com/p/trump-admi...
We conclude that the term "regular forces" in §12406(3) likely refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary. This interpretation means that to call the Guard into active federal service under § 12406(3), the President must be "unable" with the regular military "to execute the laws of the United States." Because the statute requires an assessment of the military's ability to execute the laws, it likely applies only where the military could legally execute the laws. Such circumstances are exceptional: Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the military is prohibited from "execut[ing] the laws" "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress. 18 U.S. C. §1385. So before the President can federalize the Guard under §12406(3), he likely must have statutory or constitutional authority to execute the laws with the regular military and must be "unable" with those forces to perform that function. At this preliminary stage, the Government has failed to identify a source of authority that would allow the military to execute the laws in Illinois. The President has not invoked a statute that provides an exception to the Posse Comitatus Act. Instead, he relies on inherent constitutional authority that, according to the Government, allows him to use the military to protect federal personnel and property. But the Government also claims-consistent with the longstanding view of the Executive Branch-that performing such protective functions does not constitute "executing] the laws" within the meaning of the Posse Comitatus Act. See Supp. Letter Reply Brief for Applicants 8; 1 Supp. Op. OLC 343, n. 1 (1971) (collecting sources). If that is correct, it is hard to see how performing those functions could constitute "executing] the laws" under §12406(3). See Azar v. Allina Health Services, 587 U.S. 566, 574 (2019) ("This Court does not lightly assume that Congress silently attaches different meanings to the same term in e same or related statutes"). Thus, at least in this posture, the Government has not carried its burden to show that §12406(3) permits the President to federalize the Guard in the exercise of inherent authority to protect federal personnel and property in Illinois. We need not and do not address the reviewability of findi „s made by the Pres- ident under §12406(3) or any other statute. The application for stay is denied.

My god.

From Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her ‘60 Minutes’ colleagues, posted by the NYT Michael Grynbaum:
I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.

DHS just shared this video to X with the caption "This Christmas, our hearts grow as our illegal population shrinks."

The video is set to a version of Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" and has text that reads "Christmas after mass deportations." The end reads "Mirthnuke."

Evil shit.

By this argument, anybody under an indefinite injunction can file something limiting themselves from violating it for 1 (one) day, then argue the injunction is now moot and not longer applicable.

No?

“Accordingly, KAG has been released, and he is in no immediate danger of removal because his order of removal is not yet final. There exists no basis for the continued injunction as entered by this Court in its August 27, 2025, letter order.”

Okay, what about AFTER the 30 days?
