Our government shouldn't be able to consign people to conditions in a foreign country that would be constitutional violations, and criminal too, here.

From the perspective of a former prosecutive who worked on trafficking cases, the loss of this office can only be intended to make it easier for the traffickers. There is literally no rationale for doing this.

roberts et al have divined the Actual Intent of the constitution, which is to allow the government to exercise nearly unaccountable power to strip people of their rights. it is why we fought the revolution!
#BREAKING: 5-4 Court, with Barrett joining the three Dem. appointees in dissent *vacates* Chief Judge Boasberg’s temporary restraining orders in the Alien Enemy Act cases. Judicial review must be available, Court holds, but has to come through habeas petitions:

When I lived in Vermont I heard that if a leader of geese who fly on annual migrations misleads them to a wrong place, the leader is ostracized and is never trusted again.
So much of this could have been avoided if we had only retained the norm that leaders who lied to the public had to face consequences

Published in 1899, Kate Chopin’s landmark feminist novel, “The Awakening” is a frank examination of desire, motherhood, and gender roles. Its radical portrayal of self-discovery is still pertinent today. Professor Rachel Adams & author @erinentrada.bsky.social join me @11aET on #VelshiBannedBookClub

so sad. Senate Republicans who will never have to worry about medical insurance, food, shelter.... making the lives of many Americans even more desperate than they are now. it really is unconscionable, grotesque.
