DOJ: last night Secret Service allowed event to proceed at a “venue” which “history proves … is demonstrably unsafe for the President of the United States”
Eric Columbus@ericcolumbus.bsky.social · 3mo agoDOJ writes counsel for plaintiff in the ballroom lawsuit demanding end to the suit: “Put simply, your lawsuit puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at grave risk.” Says DOJ will move to dismiss the suit in light of the WHCD unless plaintiff drops suit by 9am Monday.
According to documents filed this morning by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of NY, ICE has been lying for a year — not only to the public, but to the courts and to prosecutors — about being authorized to make arrests at 26 Federal Plaza and other immigration courts. (1/2)

DANY opposition in NY hush money removal case (remanded to Judge Hellerstein)
Guessing, but sounds like 2d Cir will remand to Hellerstein to reconsider -- under standard that 2d Cir clarifies -- whether good cause to remove, rather than, as Trump seeks, move appeal directly to 2d Cir now. State appeal proceeds (absent stay) until Hellerstein ruling & any appeals therefrom.

Trump's deadline to file opening brief in NY state court appeal of hush money conviction is 7/29/25. Yesterday the parties filed a stip (not publicly available) -- wonder if they agreed to extend time for state appeal until 2d Cir rules on this (i.e. whether it will be moved to federal court).

No. My concern is that the Court could’ve cabined the practice as recently as January in a way that wouldn’t look like covering for rampant lawlessness by the executive. It gives at least the appearance that this isn’t just about universal relief—like the 10+ times Gorsuch voted to leave it intact.
Note to WH staff today: paper is the traditional gift for the first anniversary of becoming a convicted felon. Maybe a nice bound volume of recent court decisions.
SCOTUS www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p... acknowledges what @rparloff.bsky.social pointed out bsky.app/profile/rpar... and what Ensign actually said at the 4/18 Boasberg hearing (not what Alito claimed in dissent he had said).

Let's talk about the interim US Attorney for DC. 2 statutes for temporary US Attorneys. First, there is a specific agency provision, 28 U.S.C. 546. Martin was named under this provision. Technically, AG is to choose (but press releases said Trump picked). 1/ www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

Boasberg: "Was the President telling the truth when he said he could pick up the phone and have Mr. Abrego-Garcia released, or not?"
Arguing with Trump about whether the text was "photoshopped" doesn't even get to the point of it, it was a CAPTION, whoever made it wasn't trying to fool people into thinking the text was a tattoo! It's like he was talking about how he saw the actors on TV stub their toes on the words at the bottom.

NEW: Government officials insist that neither DOGE nor Musk have any real decision-making authority—they merely “advise” or “consult.” But internal DOJ emails provide the most compelling evidence yet that DOGE is not simply advising—it’s calling the shots. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/on-d...

Oh wow — USDOT craps on SDNY for what was obviously just a terrible mistake, and breathes further life into this story. I’ve never heard of a federal agency doing this (in public, that is).
Erik Uebelacker@uebey.bsky.social · last yr.NEW: Trump’s Department of Transportation is livid after its DOJ lawyers accidentally published a memo exposing the weaknesses of its congestion pricing case. “Are SDNY lawyers on this case incompetent or was this their attempt to RESIST?”
According to Alito, the Trump administration told a judge at a Friday night hearing that it did not plan to deport more migrants to El Salvador on Friday or Saturday, so there was no need for SCOTUS to halt any flights. I read the hearing transcript. Alito is wrong. slate.com/news-and-pol...
