Remarkable.

MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Possible to start to tell a unified story: "Trump is personally too old, crazy, and confused to run things, so at any given time the question is which co-president is in charge. At first it was Musk, & we got the crazy chaotic DOGE era. Then Navarro: a trade war that crashed markets. Now Miller..."

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her

Pope Francis took the name Francis because he wanted to serve with the same compassion and consideration as St. Francis of Assisi.

He did. May perpetual light shine upon him.

Even more telling? The Court acted before the DOJ could respond—a stunning sign of distrust in the Trump administration's truthfulness and a shift from months of deference.

It was a message: The Court is no longer willing to let this presidency trample the rule of law unchecked.

The ACLU presumably will describe the ways in which this filing is disingenuous, but don't lose sight of the lede:

The SCOTUS' objective was to ensure that no one is removed pursuant to the unlawful AEA Proclamation until they have a meaningful opportunity to challenge it, ...
The Trump administration has just filed the response brief the Supreme Court ordered late last night:
