Free Mahmoud Khalil

Simply astonishing. We've had 19 months of Israeli government ministers and military commanders telling us they are destroying Gaza. They've destroyed Gaza. And yet western politicians and media still refuse to call it a genocide.

Watch Israel's lips: IT'S A GENOCIDE.

The reason Mahmoud Khalil missed the birth of his child was because a Biden appointee judge kept him in prison. Obviously, Trump deserves primary blame. But it takes a village to do fascism.

Presenting a computer-fabricated piece of fake evidence in court is a nice parable of what victim-impact statements have always been about

No food, aid, or fuel have entered Gaza since March 2.

Community kitchens have closed. Children are sick, thirsty, and starving.

Now Netanyahu’s government wants to occupy Gaza and shut down the existing aid distribution system run by the UN and its humanitarian partners.

Arms embargo now.

Opposite effect = what? Hardening them further as ardent zionists and genocide enablers?

Absolutely. Democrats need to be bashed. Not sure they've ever done anything without being bashed.

Because democrats are ideologically committed to the colonization and ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

Bro, of all the letters for trump to cancel...

Don't throw out OPEC as an example, because 6 votes on SCOTUS will probably say it is.

Still haven't identified John Doe #2

A screen grab of a tweet by Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele showing photos of U.S. Sen. Chris Van Hollen meeting with wrongly deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia, with a caption reading, "Kilmar Abrego Garcia, miraculously risen from the 'death camps' & 'torture', now sipping margaritas with Sen. Van Hollen in the tropical paradise of El Salvador!"

Bukele is using these images to troll US critics of his black-hole prison system and Trump's rule of law violations.

But what they actually confirm (through the lack of shackles and armed guards) is that Abrego Garcia is not the dangerous terrorist he and Trump have portrayed him to be.

Texas and Missouri filed suit in 2021, claiming the program's disbandment was unlawfully "arbitrary and capricious." They shopped their complaint to the federal court in Amarillo, Texas, where they were guaranteed to draw Kacsmaryk, an ultra-partisan Trump appointee (who would later attempt to ban mifepristone medication abortion nationwide). To nobody's surprise, Kacsmaryk sided with Texas, issuing a nationwide injunction that forced the government to restart Remain in Mexico almost immediately. Biden's Justice Department promptly begged the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit to freeze Kacsmaryk's injunction, providing ample evidence that his order would "significantly harm our diplomatic relationships" and mandate complex "diplomatic engagement" with foreign sovereigns. The 5th Circuit refused a stay, blowing off these concerns in one brusque paragraph. Any harm to Biden's foreign policy agenda, it asserted, was "self-inflicted," because the government should have "simply inform[ed] Mexico" that terminating the program "would be subject to judicial review."

The Justice Department then asked the Supreme Court for emergency relief. Kacsmaryk's decision, it wrote, "imposes a severe and unwarranted burden on executive authority over immigration policy and foreign affairs." His injunction, DOJ wrote, wrested control of foreign policy "by requiring it to immediately negotiate with Mexico to reinstate" a dormant program- "effectively dictating the content of the United States' negotiations with foreign sovereigns." It marked nothing less than a grievous "intrusion into the executive's management of foreign policy," encroaching upon the core of his "constitutional authority." SCOTUS didn't care. By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court refused to grant a stay; its bare-bones, one-paragraph order did not even address Kacsmaryk's interference with the president's power over international relations. All three liberal justices dissented.

Can district courts order the executive branch to engage in specific acts of diplomatic negotiation?

If SCOTUS doesn’t think so now, why did it let Matthew Kacsmaryk force U.S. diplomats to negotiate the revival of a Trump border policy in 2021 after Biden tried to end it? slate.com/news-and-pol...

In 2025, it's first they came for the Palestinians, but Clyburn didn't say shit because AIPAC

INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear."

Because Killmar probably never said "Free Palestine" (at least not on social media or in writing)

1. Every Dem Senator should be doing this, at minimum, for their constituents.
2. Why won't my Senators in New York do this for my fellow Columbia students incarcerated in Louisiana? It's a quicker flight.

Can't abide the paywall

They let MS-13 terrorists out of prison for photo-ops?????

This is very eyebrow-raising. An un-retracted lie by Columbia that’s possibly contributed to the detaining of one of their students.

As one professor put it to me: “we have never seen so clear a line between language the university has used and the Trump attacks on individuals.”

This guy seems pretty happy to be doing this.

But beyond that, law enforcement is basically unaccountable. Try filing a complaint against an officer and see what happens.

Got a new one today when the press secretary accused him of being a "human trafficker" just absolutely out of thin air!

@wcvb5.bsky.social respect!

Respect to ABC 5 in Boston for carrying the video.

Final nail in the coffin for Columbia being a "peer" to Harvard or Stanford.
