This is a meaningless trick. A court cannot violate rule 6(e), which prohibits public disclosure.

If DOJ has a strong criminal case against Abrego Garcia, they should welcome the chance to prove his guilt at trial. This offer of guilty plea or Uganda is coercive. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Even Todd Blanche’s friends know he is too dangerous to serve as AG. His record speaks for itself. www.ms.now/opinion/todd...

I am grateful to Mayor Duggan for all of his successes in Detroit, and now I am delighted to see Mayor Sheffield with innovative ideas to promote the city and improve the quality of life for its residents. www.freep.com/story/news/l...

Court has found what we knew all along. Blanche’s “settlement” with Trump providing tax immunity was illegal self-dealing. Trump barred from using it and lawyers sanctioned. Great to see a court call out the corruption. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

By forcing a “colorblind” Constitution, Roberts usurps the proper role of Congress. Congress may limit rights if law is narrowly tailored to achieve a compelling government interest, such as promoting diversity or reducing disparate impact discrimination. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Michigan voters deserve answers for delay in opening Gordie Howe Bridge. We already had a sweetheart deal with Canada. Why are we negotiating a new one? Political donation to Trump PAC by private owner of rival bridge has created appearance of corruption. apnews.com/article/cana...

Senate needs to grill Todd Blanche on slush fund, Epstein files, firing DOJ employees, and targeting Trump rivals, but most important is his vision for AG. Does he plan to follow the rule of law or act as Trump’s puppet? My thoughts in @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Just labeling immigrants “invaders” does not make them so. This Court looks to history and tradition, which considered invaders to mean government supported armies.

Good to see a judge call out this manipulation of the court with Trump essentially suing himself and collecting tax relief that some experts estimate to be valued at $100 million.
