  1. Well, if Roberts has flipped and is suddenly going to decide that he was wrong that "deportations" under the AEA can only be challenged via individualized habeas actions, that'd be the quickest "we fucked up" in SCOTUS history. They usually wait at least ten years before even implicitly admitting they fucked up. Since this is an administrative stay, my guess is Roberts wants a little more time to figure out how he can better define the notice requirements they established under J.G.G. two weeks ago. But that was when he fucked up and, short of openly admitting that order was wrong and Boasberg's TRO was appropriate, I don't see how they can fix the problem Roberts walked them into. Boasberg's TRO was clearly necessary and that challenge under the APA should've been allowed to proceed. But Roberts wanted to give Trump enough wriggle room to mass deport people without it looking like Trump was clearly violating both court orders and human rights (knowing that even with notice, most of the detainees wouldn't be able to effectively file habeas actions), and lacked the foresight to understand how the administration would respond to the nice clever little loophole Roberts had given them. So he's basically back where he started, but now trying to figure out a way around his own ruling from two weeks ago that rewrote a whole lot of law on the fly, wholly based on political considerations and without putting any real thought into the legal implications. Maybe Roberts actually is just genuinely a dumbass.
  2. Well he's only lied about both the facts and the law. I guess we're supposed to pretend he's not doing that?
  3. Until SCOTUS stuck its dick in this beehive, habeas actually wasn't considered the appropriate remedy to contest a wrongful removal because habeas is for contesting wrongful detention, which Abrego Garcia's attorneys weren't contesting. SCOTUS intervened to try to save Trump from himself and in the process butchered the applicable law, something they fucking love to do these days.
  4. Oh, after several libelous allegations of specific facts you acknowledge you don't actually know what the fuck you're talking about? Holy shit, we're making progress.
  5. As a reminder, this is JBJ's legal wisdom: There's no point arguing with this idiot unless a client is going to pay you to do it.
  6. He's never had any.
  7. Oh yeah? You should post some stats on that.
  8. Turns out all libertarians actually do is whine about age of consent laws, fall for crypto rug pulls, eat hot chip, and lie.
  9. I still remember the things that scared me the most then were Gitmo and the US attorneys scandal, when they fired a bunch of prosecutors for refusing to gin up evidence of Democratic illegal voting conspiracies. Feels, uh, not great to have been pretty much on the fucking money with those worries.
  10. There ain't no cure for what he's got.
  11. I mean, the fact that the kid died of a stab wound is evidence. The possibility of other evidence that could support a self defense claim doesn't mean we don't already have evidence available to us of an intent to seriously injure.
  12. Haunted by hopelessness: 12 Zambians Share their stories as HIV drugs run out. Too long to quote in full, but here's a few bits: The people who did this, and the people who cheered it on, deserve to die the most excruciating deaths imaginable.
  13. Looks like someone got his face ate by a leopard but refuses to take personal responsibility for it.
  14. Stop your fucking whining and just say you think it’s bad, man.
  15. I'm pretty sure it's the same cell and the same prisoners they're showing in every one of these photo ops. There's reporting that the rest of the prisoners in their system get kept in even shittier prisons and I wouldn't be surprised if Bukele has turned those into death camps.
  16. Are you a fed?
  17. You fucking pussies, this is the kind of shit right here that millions of people the world over for hundreds of years have literally taken up arms and sacrificed their lives to fight against. Look at those fucking blue hairs in Iowa yelling at Chuck Grassley. Even most old racists hate this kind of shit.
  18. I think Eddie’s love for crypto leads him down some weird political paths that he thinks are normal. Eddie, the weirdo libertarians who love crypto and bitch about the governmental tyranny of age of consent laws, but cheer on the illegal rendition of alleged immigrants to a third world gulag, are not normal. They’re not anywhere close to the average American nor the median voter. They’re dumb, sick freaks whom normal people find repulsive.
  19. Imagine having a harem of women you don't ever even have sex with. What's the fucking point?
  20. Ag with kids: "What's wrong with giving Vladimir Putin my home address and bank account information?"
  21. This was doing rounds yesterday and has probably already been posted: Imagine being stupid enough to watch that and think "hmmmmm, this issue is a total loser for Democrats and they need to run far away from it!"
  22. I remember you saying the same shit after Glenn Youngkin narrowly won the VA governorship in 2021. No matter the situation, your desire is always for Democrats to act more like Republicans. They keep doing that in elections, even campaigning with some Republicans last year, and it never seems to help. If anything, it hurts them politically. It's funny how you refuse to learn anything from your recommended approach constantly failing.
  23. Even worse, I've found babayaga to be completely normal and reasonable in this thread. And I'm only admitting that because I've been drinking tonight.
  24. Jesus christ, people. It's fine for random message board assholes to call this kid a murderer. It's also fine for pedantic lawyers to note that he hasn't been convicted. He stabbed someone else in the chest with a knife. Intent to kill can be legally presumed by a jury, as has been previously explained, and we're not the fucking jury. Maybe there's some reasonable grounds for a self defense argument, we don't know. And unless there's some evidence that he goes around stabbing other people or torturing cats or something, there's no reason he shouldn't get bail. This story sucks ass for everyone involved and is example infinity of the stupidity of modern masculinity. Boys used to know how to talk shit and even how to lose a fight without wanting to kill.
