The government moving or hiding jailed people to avoid review by courts isn't some loophole in our habeas corpus rights. This government behavior has been considered a violation of the people's habeas corpus rights since at least the Habeas Corpus Act of 1679. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habeas_...

Jailors were forbidden to move prisoners from one prison to another or out of the country to evade the writ. In case of disobedience jailers would be punished with severe fines which had to be paid to the prisoner.[5][6]

This will make it nearly impossible to file habeas petitions, because attorneys won’t even know what federal district their client has been moved to to stage for their removal. Something like a third of all people in ICE custody. apnews.com/article/ice-...

Germany and Sweden are reinforcing Gotland in light of deteriorating security situation. Aerial, naval and other units are active with live weapons. It is explicitly described as not an exercise and aimed at securing logistics. "Primary focus is Russia" www.svt.se/nyheter/inri...

Tyska förband förstärker Gotland i Nato-operation

Tyska förband rullar i dag in på Gotland i en förstärkningsoperation tillsammans med svenska Försvarsmakten. Operationen är ett test av Natos planer för hur ön ska försvaras. – Det här är ingen vanlig...

It's so funny that Mamdani is doing *exactly* what the abundance types are calling for -- competent government in service of constituents' quality of life -- but they can't embrace him because their billionaire donors hate Muslims.

It's pretty damn impressive how much ground Mayor Mamdani has been able to cover after only nine months in office on a wide range of basic quality-of-life issues in NYC. I was reading through the numbers this morning, and they're kinda astonishing. (thread)

HOLY SHIT - Tapper plays Johnson footage of GOP candidate Brandon Herrera describing moms as "cum trophies," mentions he called Nazi machine guns "the original ghetto blasters," & asks Johnson how he can support him. Mike says "he has run a very effective campaign ... that was his persona online"

This is exactly how I remember it. A disaster brought upon the United States from outside by those who wanted it destroyed and an disaster brought upon from the inside from those with no morals and a lust for power.

Here's what I think about when I think back on 9/11. The attack happened on the watch of a Republican president who had been warned, repeatedly & explicitly, that an attack was coming. He dismissed those warnings.

This year... -Trump's EPA approved potentially cancer-causing "forever chemical" trifludimoxazin -Trump signed an EO boosting production of cancer-linked weedkiller chemical glyphosate -Trump's DOJ defended chemical makers against liability suits at SCOTUS "Make America Healthy Again."

Remember there are tens of millions of Americans who will vote to continue this sort of thing. It's going to take a serious effort by all concerned to ensure an effective government is in place for *at least* two terms & structural reform is implemented or this very might well be a one way road.

Let me be a Debby Downer here: it will take more than 2 consecutive terms to slightly rebuild our government because the damage these guys have inflicted on every department & agency is *enormous*. Don’t look for a quick fix.

the most embarrassing thing about this is how he doesn't even have the ability to think of a new name for anything thats not simply "America" slapped onto the thing is like a sticker .Gulf of America, Lake America, just the laziest attention seeking ever, its kinda pathetic

Holy shit — the purpose of this Trump event is to announce that he’s changing the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America.” It will be interesting to see which if any institutions and companies go along with this
