Urquilla-Ramos v. Trump (via @kateshaw.bsky.social):
"[A]gents of the federal government—masked, anonymous, armed with military weapons, operating from unmarked vehicles, acting without warrants ...—are seizing persons ... and imprisoning them without any semblance of due process."

Times may be tough right now, but I’m hardwired hopeful.
From my conversation with @strictscrutiny.bsky.social podcast.
Thanks to all the Angelenos who came out to our Strict Scrutiny live show! We had a blast.

Unprecedented: @profmmurray.bsky.social becoming, albeit only briefly, a Shawptimist after listening to CA's AG on the most recent @strictscrutiny.bsky.social episode!

NEW: Live from SF! The West Coast Bad Decisions tour!
We recap the wild guns-and-drugs Second Amendment argument in Hemani; last week's shadow docket orders (NY redistricting & a right to out your kid as trans) & CA's AG @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov gives us reason to hope! crooked.com/podcast/a-co...
Met with some of our incredible California DOJ staff before taping the @strictscrutiny.bsky.social podcast in San Francisco!
Thanks for an informative and funny night in San Francisco, @strictscrutiny.bsky.social

You can’t just freeze Medicaid because you feel like it, JD.
When federal agencies act like a campaign arm, fair elections are in trouble.
The Supreme Court's eagerness - and willingness - to just do what they want (especially on the shadow docket), notwithstanding normal legal processes & their own jurisdiction continues to be revealing.
(As does Sam Alito's manipulation/misrepresentation of the facts.)
We can’t wait to see you!!!
Getting super-excited for the @strictscrutiny.bsky.social live show in San Francisco on Friday! And I’m bringing along two clients who have never heard of your show before, which proves my trust in you is boundless
#SCOTUS just granted emergency relief in *both* the California teachers case (putting back on hold, at least in this case, California’s law barring teachers from outing transgender students to their parents) *and* the Malliotakis redistricting cases.
The Democratic appointees dissented in both.
they didn’t do it with CA, but are now toying with the idea that the constitution means “Republicans get to gerrymander but Democrats can’t”
Peloton handle for Alito. Admittedly, it works better on paper than aloud:

I spoke w/ 3 super smart people on 3 big topics (w/nods to independent media)!
Bec Ingber on the law of war @becingber.bsky.social
Chris Geidner on legal news (& what Law Dork has uncovered) @lawdorknews.bsky.social
& Marc Elias on the war on democracy @marcelias.bsky.social @democracydocket.com
Honestly, if you don't listen to Strict Scrutiny, you're missing out. I have learned so much from them since I started listening a couple years ago.
So, @leahlitman.bsky.social's excellent rant (positive) about how misogyny got us into this whole fcking mess is the best thing I've heard since Sat. Also, she and her guest make the case for giving a shit about this being lawless rather than giving in to nihilism. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
Was so great to join @leahlitman.bsky.social for this week’s @strictscrutiny.bsky.social!
Our primary insight into how the Trump Admin lawyers* war powers comes from the OLC memo they published on the Venezuela strikes and capture of Maduro.
My analysis here:
Love it when I am struggling through the horrors of this world and @strictscrutiny.bsky.social has on @lawdorknews.bsky.social, fellow AU Alum and dorm-mate to help us all through the terrors.
