- A new brief in the birthright citizenship case by Gerard Magliocca. This one points out the regulation of Roma people in England and the United States. It is a thin amicus brief, as it focuses on a narrow subject, but accurate. So, I don't have much to say. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25...
- (As an aside, sort of jarring to see a brief use that word, rather than Roma. I’m not well-versed in the relevant politics, eg whether theres been an effort to reclaim the other word, etc., so I could be missing something….)
- Congress has got to force an end to these surges.
- Exclusive: DOJ is requiring all 93 US attorneys to designate prosecutors for "emergency jump teams" supporting surge districts dealing with assaults & obstruction of federal officers, per internal memo. Comes as more Minn. prosecutors resign. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...
- This is one of the most sickening things I have ever read. slate.com/news-and-pol...
- Trump now demands $1B from Harvard www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
- Incredible reporting. Here’s the email that launched an intrusive and frightening investigation:
- This is absolutely insane: DHS claims the right to subpoena your emails and to send investigators to your house. In this case, because a retiree sent the mildest possible criticism to a prosecutor. No judges involved. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...
- This is very good: www.theunpopulist.net/p/the-fashio...
