Respondents have already wasted valuable time and resources. Worst of all, not only does detention without due process deprive members of the Bond Eligible Class of their liberty, economic stability, and fundamental dignity, but it also harms their families, communities, and the fabric of this very nation. IT IS SO ORDERED.
Wow.
Fed. judge tells DHS, ICE, Sec. Noem, AG Bondi, EOIR and others that they are harming "the fabric of this very nation" by defying a court order that vacated their automatic-detention policy.

You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid
Sheβs only 36, and thereβs a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.
The worst case scenario for an AOC presidential run in 2028 is that sheβs setting herself up for 2032 or 2036.
She is going to be president somedayβitβs just a matter of time.
