"The landlords concede that the value of their properties has grown, in some cases substantially, since they or their parents bought the buildings decades ago. That doesn’t mean it will be easy to recoup their investments at sale."

This is an odd paragraph to drop near the end & leave unexplained.

Wouldn't happen to know whether they'll post the recordings afterwards to the page would you? I'll follow their YouTube channel just in case.

the vindictive villainy here is as contemptible as it is pathetic

Hundreds of Kids, Including Infants, Are Still at the ICE Facility That Released Liam Ramos. Now There’s a Measles Outbreak. Rep. Joaquin Castro, who visited last week, is calling for the facility to be “shut down immediately” after measles outbreak.

NEW: @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social is calling for Dilley Immigration Center to be “shut down immediately.”
Dilley released Liam Ramos. But hundreds of children who remain in the facility are facing a measles outbreak. The highly contagious disease can be deadly.

the painfully hilarious exasperation here from the Speaker in pleading to the public how a constitutionally limited gov't takes too much time while retreating to the self-assuring canard that they're the real rule of law party

Putting on my suit and tie and going on America Erwache to describe a 234 year old basic requirement of the constitution for lawful searches and seizures as a “nonstarter.”

Week 1 - Black History Month 2026
1. You may have seen this image of Black men voting during Reconstruction, and assumed it is a depiction of voting after the passage of the 15th Amendment (which outlaws denying the right to vote based on race).

'Liberty is oxygen to the Human Spirit! Thusly—it is no proper function of Governments to secure and provide oxygen!'

Everyone eats no strings attached actually sounds like the most ethical & ambitious promotion of the general welfare so maybe go fuck yourself

ffs

In actively pursuing litigation in his personal capacity while holding office of Pres., does the man thereby waive any presidential immunity privilege in being sued while in office? I get the whole pres. immunity is just a judicial fabrication, I just want to test some of these edge cases.

🤯 massive "this u?" for the alleged rule of law party

this post keeps coming back for me—

"lots of people decided yeah"

👇

someone else has already pointed out how this guy is basically a Tim Robinson character with too much influence, right? just to be clear

Worth repeating that Exec. has a constitutional duty to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed"—as UET weirdos like to remind us—and here an executive agency is obstructing the bare min. of even an investigation into a fed. officer bound by *our* fucking laws

Would historic issue of excise enforcement for 4A warrant protections then reasonably extend to all other exec. agencies enforcing such civil offenses/orders under fed. law?

Any tax lawyers or con law people know more about history & nature of excise tax offenses?

6/6

(2) If a founding era worry was excise tax collection permitting entry into dwelling-house etc., how does this hist. scope extend in modern era of fed tax law & APA exec. agency enforcement of tax offenses? 5/

From a historic view, 4A restrained the new fed. gov’t primarily, & crim. law was dominantly the purview of pre-existing state law. 4A motivations restraining the fed. exec. would have reasonably emerged in the new realms of civil law (& crim. law) enforcement authorized for the new fed. gov't? 4/

(1) (Knowing nothing about tax law) Would failure to pay excise taxes have been a crim. or civil offense? If tax offense was mere civil offense incurring fines or imprisonment for failure/order contempt, does this support 4A protection was contemplated for civil offenses, not chiefly criminal? 3/

A reemergent fear was executive officers trespassing, rifling, seizing under the excise power for possessions having unpaid excise dues. This seems interesting to me if we're to look at the scope of 4A protection from hist. view as applied to admin. warrants because— 2/

Picking over Cogan’s Bill of Rights doc. sources this morning, one thing I notice in the hist. of 4A warrant debate maybe worth noting is how founding era dialogue spoke on need for 4A protections because of concerns for abuse in search & seizure under fed. gov’ts excise tax authority. 🧵 1/

Still looking. Anyone where where it is/who compiled?

Ah yes, everyone serious understands how the founding generation warned especially about the threat to a republican form of government posed by the people's juries

This is 100% FALSE. Immigration judges do NOT play any role in issuing administrative warrants. They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves. ICE’s own training materials say they can’t be used for a search of a home!

Here’s a blank warrant form. Note who signs it.
