What a dick.

A. Petitioner's Physical Deterioration at NWIPC 8 Petitioner alleges, and Respondents do not dispute, that he was in good health when he 9 entered ICE detention. See Dkt. No. I-9 (DHS Form I-213) at 2 ("The subject claims good 10 health"). Eighth months later, hospital records show that Petitioner's health has declined to 11 include two partial foot amputations, a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis (a type of inflammatory 12 bowel disease ("IBD")),? acute blood loss anemia, a kidney injury, a severe vitamin D deficiency 13 and dramatic unintended weight loss. Dkt. No. 16 at 3.

While Respondents largely do not address the conditions of Petitioner's confinement in responding to this claim, they argue elsewhere that "the medical care [Petitioner] has received is constitutionally adequate." Dkt. No. 22 at 15. But the record here compels a finding that, on the preponderance of the evidence, Petitioner's medical care, and denial of medical care, included objectively unreasonable failures of care that more likely than not resulted in permanent disability, including the loss of his toe and part of his foot. The Court bases this finding on the following facts:

Respondents have made no showing that the extreme restrictions on Petitioner's liberty and health created by his custodians' decisions, ineptitude, and denial of care are not excessive in relation to its asserted purpose of "protecting the public and enforcing U.S. immigration laws." There is no indication that these interests could not have been just as easily served without ignoring his cries of pain for hours, or without declining to see him as his bone was eaten away by infection. There is no indication that these interests could not have been served while bringing Petitioner to the hospital for imaging when a GI appointment could not be scheduled quickly (or contracting with additional external providers), while filling his prescriptions, or while treating him with appropriate medication based on his actual diagnosis. And finally, there is no indication that these interests cannot be served by subjecting Petitioner to alternatives to detention under appropriate conditions of release while he pursues outside treatment— an argument raised in the habeas petition but completely ignored by Respondents. Dkt. No. 1 9 61. In sum, the length of Petitioner's detention does not support a finding that it is excessive in relation to its purpose, but the conditions of his detention do. Under the unique facts of this case, the extreme consequences of Respondents' unreasonable treatment of Petitioner constitute deprivations so excessive that the conditions of detention alone take Respondents' detention of Petitioner out of the realm of constitutional civil detention and render it punitive.

A federal judge on Friday ordered the release of a man who had been in immigration detention due to "objectively unreasonable failures of care that more likely than not resulted in permanent disability, including the loss of his toe and part of his foot."

"once you treat him with respect he thinks you're a dope and immediately loses respect for you" when the literal worst person on earth makes a correct observation

Having taught right through this period, I think this is (i) absurd; and (ii) fuelled by the worst kind of lawyer-ly 'ambulance chasing'. Anyway:
1. Unis did what the govt said;
2. Students got every hr of teaching they'd paid for, just online;
3. Unis weren't saving £££, as they didn't sack staff.

If you want to understand why rich guys are turning back to eugenics and recreating the rhetoric and theology of slavery, it’s because they know on some level this level of wealth inequality is unjustifiable bsky.app/profile/marl...

Of course the right thing with driverless cars is for no-one to own them and people to get one of the right size when they need it.

Who do they think is going to buy their crap if no-one has a job?

Opinion | The long view of self-driving cars Shortsighted special interests aim to preserve some jobs at the expense of saving lives on the road.

The Washington Post editorial page shows its ass every day as a tool to advance Bezos positions. Last week, there was some hysterical union bashing. Today it's a pro-driverless car piece, a business Amazon is in. Anything to kil human jobs.

Pilot Reportedly Handcuffed in Front of Passengers and Arrested on Suspicion of Child Sex Abuse A Brazilian LATAM Airlines pilot was arrested on Monday, Feb. 9, for suspicion of child sex abuse. The 60-year-old was allegedly the head of a large sex crime operation in São Paulo.

Brazil arrested & prosecuted their former Pres for doing exactly what Trump did and now they have arrested Epstein’s pilot. We had weak ass Merrick Garland & his apologists telling us he was handling things. A tale of 2 democracies #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue people.com/latam-airlin...

Opinion | How much money has Trump made as president? The answer should worry us all. Ian Bassin: As an Obama White House lawyer, I counseled staff to behave like they are allergic to free stuff. What the Journal report describes threatens not just the public trust but also our nationa...

As a White House ethics lawyer I told staff:

“Be allergic to free stuff” and not to even accept a can of soda from someone with business before the White House.

So how has the story of a UAE royal making a deal worth nearly $200m to the Trump family fallen out of news? www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

Even 30 million seems a hell of a lot for a warehouse tbh.

Trump paid $140,000,000 in taxpayer money to a Russian oligarch for a warehouse in Social Circle, Ga to be made into a concentration camp. Actual value of the warehouse? $30 - 40,000,000😵‍💫😵‍💫

great work, everyone

How far have you got? Because I learned a lot more about [thing] than I probably wanted to.

Screenshot of a tweet quoting Joe Rogan questioning why names would be redacted if someone is not a victim, saying the Epstein files situation “is not a hoax.” Below is a video still of Rogan speaking into a microphone on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast set.

Joe Rogan is THIS close to getting it about the man who said this was all a hoax.

Someone posts: TBH if citizenship means anything I don't understand dual citizenship-either you feel affinity and loyalty to a country or you don't but I don't think you can do that simultaneously for two countries I reply: That's ridiculous, of course you can, how idiotic. Can you simultaneously love two parents, two children? Absurdly reductive. Identity is complicated and damn these people who tell me who I can or can't be.

Very fed up of people trying to reduce my identity to a single stupid flag.

Propaganda works. That's why dictators immediately target the arts and, since the 20th century, movies in particular.

With Latest Rollback, the U.S. Essentially Has No Clean-Car Rules

Happy independence day to Lithuania! 🇱🇹

Not just viewing. All through my childhood and I think at least teens too, "Which team has won the FA Cup most times?" was answered with "Aston Villa, seven times."

I used to take great pride in not being a straight party voter. I would carefully look at every candidate and then vote for who I thought would best serve the people. I still do that last part, but it's been a straight D vote the last few years. The GOP has forgotten THEY are supposed to serve US!

Obama at the All-Star game- man has to play substitute President because nobody wants to see the Epstein one.

Far be it from me to say we ought to be careful who we listen to on these issues, but it’s worth pointing out that these reason this guy is doing this interview is to plug his subscription service.

Restore will vet for commitment to mass deportations.

It does seem that Lowe/Restore is opposed in principle to excluding those who would ban ethnic minorities from parliament, or even those who call for the deportation of every single UK-born ethnic minority.

These are the oligarchs who seek to rule every aspect of our lives, and the current US regime is doing everything possible to facilitate that because it is owned by them.
