NEW: Judge Murphy orders the Trump admin to give the men it was sending to South Sudan an opportunity to receive a screening for persecution/torture at least 15 days to move to reopen their immigration court case — but says DHS can do this with the men outside the U.S.
ORDER ON REMEDY FOR VIOLATION OF PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION MURPHY, J. As set forth in today's hearing and at Dkt. 118, the Court found that Defendants violated the Court's Preliminary Injunction. Having considered the arguments of counsel, the Court ORDERS the following remedy for Defendants' violations of the Preliminary Injunction: Each of the six individuals must be given a reasonable fear interview in private, with the opportunity for the individual to have counsel of their choosing present during the interview, either in-person or remotely, at the individual's choosing. Each individual must be afforded access to counsel that is commensurate with the access that they would have received had these procedures occurred within the United States prior to their deportation, including remote access where in-person access would otherwise be available. Each individual must also be afforded the name and telephone number of class counsel, as well as access to a phone, interpreter, and technology for the confidential transfer of documents that is commensurate with the access they would receive were they in DHS custody within United States borders. Each individual, along with class counsel, must be given no fewer than 72-hours' notice of the scheduled time for each reasonable fear interview. Should any individual raise a fear with respect to deportation to the third country that DHS determines falls short of "reasonable fear," the individual must be provided meaningful opportunity, and a minimum of 15 days, to seek to move to reopen immigration proceedings to challenge the potential third-country removal. During that 15-day period, the individual must remain within the custody or control of DHS, and must be afforded access to counsel that is commensurate with the access they would be afforded if they were seeking to move to reopen from within the United States' borders. Defendants must provide status reports every seven days as to all six individuals. Should any individual move to reopen, the parties must also immediately provide a status report, and continue providing status reports every seven days thereafter, on the status of the motion to reopen. DHS, in its discretion, may elect to provide this process to the six individuals either within the United States should it choose to return them to the United States or abroad, if at all relevant times DHS retains custody and control over the individuals in conditions commensurate to those the individuals would be housed in were they still in DHS's custody within the United States. This Order reflects a remedy, in light of the Court's finding of a violation of its Preliminary Injunction, that has been narrowly tailored in accordance with principles of equity. The Court cautions Defendants that this remedy should not be construed as setting forth a course of conduct that would constitute compliance with the Preliminary Injunction, and the Court is not—in ordering this remedy— making any findings or conclusions that compliance with these processes before deportation would have satisfied the requirements of its Preliminary Injunction in the first instance. So Ordered. Dated: May 21, 2025

There have been a few seriously great Brexit commentators but no-one has captured its profoundly sick pathology as well as Fintan O'Toole.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

If your argument is "sure, a terrible modern event has a parallel in the 1920s and 30s but don't worry we turned out just fine", might I suggest reading about the 1940s.

Fuck him, and I am so sorry to my Kennedy Center friends.
Donald J. Trump @realDonald Trump At my direction, we are going to make the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., GREAT AGAIN. I have decided to immediately terminate multiple individuals from the Board of Trustees, including the Chairman, who do not share our Vision for a Golden Age in Arts and Culture. We will soon announce a new Board, with an amazing Chairman, DONALD J. TRUMP! Just last year, the Kennedy Center featured Drag Shows specifically targeting our youth — THIS WILL STOP. The Kennedy Center is an American Jewel, and must reflect the brightest STARS on its stage from all across our Nation. For the Kennedy Center, THE BEST IS YET TO COME!

He is a fuc*ing mad man. He thinks he can own the world. He is a deluded idiot and one really hopes someone (god knows who)can tell him to act like a grown up instead of a petulant child

The good news: After breaking his campaign promise about quickly ending the war in Ukraine, Trump is starting to gently threaten Russia.

The bad news: He's threatening to do what the United States is already doing. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
On the war in Ukraine, Trump is haunted by his broken promise
To end the war in Ukraine, the president is telling Russia that he’s prepared to do what the United States is already doing. That’s not a real plan.
