THREAD. Over many years, we became the national experts in fighting unconstitutional pretrial detention--all the more urgent because authoritarians need detention without process. But something wild just happened in one of our habeas cases: a DA used made up cases and citations.

Past is prologue.

In 1933, during the Great Depression, a group of wealthy businessmen tried to overthrow the US government and install a fascist dictator to protect their own interests.

And everything that led to it feels way too familiar right now.

This is not a history lesson, it’s a warning.

We experience these events through our media bubbles. So please take a little time to look at the details.

For example: here is how DHS described one incident in Chicago. Now watch the video, which tells a different story.

Months before catastrophic floods swept through an Alaska Native village on Sunday, the Trump administration canceled a $20 million grant meant to protect the community from extreme flooding. At the time, the EPA administrator said he was eliminating "wasteful DEI and Environmental Justice grants."

The remote village of Kipnuk planned to use the money to protect against flooding. On Sunday, it was inundated.

Trump has once again turned a major city into that scene from The First Purge where the government expects the crimes to start and everyone parties instead
Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

In Broadview, IL this morning outside Chicago—

Federal agents have kidnapped hundreds of immigrants in recent weeks.

Outside the ICE processing center here, protesters are gathered for another Friday morning demo. Last week's ended in tear gas and arrests.

ICE vans periodically rolling in.

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse.

Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.

Looking at RFK's recent moves, including an attack on the hepatitis B vaccine and on painkillers for pregnant women.

The common theme: That all children's health problems are due to "bad" mothers.

This isn't about making kids healthy. It's misogyny.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Reading @michaelluo.bsky.social’s “Strangers in the Land” and was amazed to find an account of a person who arguably became the first immigration judge.

After the first Chinese Exclusion Act, he heard thousands of habeas cases challenging the application of the law. This was proto-immigration law.
