There are some excellent gifts in these links. Check it out.
I found out this week that I'm being laid off from my design job at the end of the year. ☹️
My partner's got a job, we have savings, it's not dire.
But if you've ever wanted books or prints from me: sarahbecan.square.site

...now is a great time. 🙂

Many of the federal district court judge decisions related to ICE and Homeland Security actions are so well written. This one (on a DOJ motion to reconsider contempt hearings) is one of the most succinct and impressive.

Here is the full text what the immigration judge ordered in 2019. As Judge Xinis notes, none of these three things include an order of removal.
The government tried to argue that the withholding grant was "implicitly" a removal order, but the law requires an explicit one.

This is really incredible. The government's battle to deport Abrego Garcia has apparently been based on a lie from the start. Not even the "gang affiliation" lie or the "human smuggling" lie, but the more basic assertion that he was ordered to be deported in the first place.
🚨Judge Xinis finds that, incredibly, Mr. Abrego Garcia was never ordered deported in 2019. She notes that every since this saga began all the way back in March, the government has NEVER been able to produce any evidence that the immigration judge actually issued a removal order.

She disagreed w me. So there is that.
