  • Criminally Contemptible
    Apr 20 2025

    Judge Boasberg issues a memorandum opinion that concludes that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt for defying court orders in the Alien Enemies Act case.

    The Fourth Circuit denies Trump’s bid to block Judge Xinis’ order to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia, as she orders two weeks of discovery prior to considering holding the government in contempt.

    The ACLU has filed a new habeas petition pursuant to Judge Boasberg’s order for due process for those remaining in El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act proclamation.

    The CIA concedes in a court filing that when it scanned Director John Ratcliffe's Signalgate messages, they were gone.

  • Blindingly Naive and Oblivious (feat. Steve Vladeck)
    Apr 13 2025

    The Supreme Court has ruled that individuals being deported under the alien enemies act proclamation are afforded due process, and that the courts can ask the government to facilitate the return of wrongfully deported detainees

    FBI Director Kash Patel has been quietly removed as the Acting Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives after he stopped showing up to work.

    The Department of Justice lawyer who argued on behalf of the government in the Abrego Garcia case has been benched because he expressed frustration with his clients during a hearing. His supervisor has also been sidelined.

  • Take it to the High Side
    Mar 30 2025

    At least 18 Trump administration officials used an unsecured Signal chat to discuss real-time attacks on Houthi militants in Yemen earlier this month as investigative journalist for the Atlantic Jeffrey Goldberg was inadvertently added to the group.

    The Department of Justice is drastically changing their policy of prosecuting crimes in the United States prior to deportation.

    The FBI has cut staffing in an office focused on domestic terrorism and has scrapped a tool used to track such investigations. This shift could undermine law enforcement’s ability to counter white supremacists and anti-government extremists.

    Alina Habba was sworn in Friday as the interim U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey.
