Excellent piece from Prof. (& @strictscrutiny.bsky.social co-host) @kateshaw.bsky.social . The Court’s emergency docket decision on the President’s power to fire the NLRB head is one of its worst. It deserves more attention.

Thank you for a clear exposition; watching for the collision
When does an alien get a "reasonable fear" hearing & how does that work if they are being deported to a 3rd party country? Did the gov't violate a court order by denying them due process? Read up, here: joycevance.substack.com/p/welcome-to...
Welcome To South Sudan
On Tuesday, preliminary reports emerged that a small group of people who were not legally in this country were being deported to Sudan.

It is not lost on me that a man who attended the funeral of Pope Francis also deported a child with metastatic cancer, innocent people to a gulag, and feels not one shred of remorse about either.

Thank you Joyce; I hope you’re getting invited to social media platforms watched by young people, including especially those voting for the first time this year and 2026
No attorney general should ever speak like this. She's Trump's advocate, not the people's lawyer, which is what the AG's job is. Whatever state she is barred in should start disciplinary proceedings immediately. This isn't subtle or arguable, it's wrong.
Bondi declares war on the courts: "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me ... they are deranged ... we are sending a very strong message today ... we will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you."

A sitting state court judge!
While the facts in this case are still unfolding, it’s clear that actions like Judge Dugan’s are what is required for democracy to survive the Trump Regime. She used her position of power and privilege to protect someone from an agency that has repeatedly abused its own power. (5/6)

A sitting state court judge!
“Before she was a judge, Dugan worked as a poverty attorney and executive director of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee” so compassion rules her heart. What’s in Bondi’s heart/mind!
Sending the FBI to arrest a sitting judge is an alarming and deeply disturbing escalation in the Administration’s ongoing attack on our judicial system.
Shortly after today’s news broke, AG Bondi went on Fox News and said, “We are sending a very strong message today… we will come after you.” (1/2)

And he said: “We must never forget how dangerous it is to stop listening to the voice of other people when they challenge us! We immediately fall into self-isolation…”
Pope Francis, the first head of the Catholic Church from the Americas who became a symbol of hope and change during his papacy, died Monday at age 88.
He was the first Jesuit pope, the first Latin-American pope and the first pope from outside Europe in at least 1,000 years. to.pbs.org/3EjlyFb
