Iβm not sure non-lawyers realize how unheard of this is.
They're literally running out of lawyers in a state where the district judges are practically at war with the administration.

I have confirmed the gist of this report out of federal court in Minnesota today from a source familiar.
If you have more information about the District of Minnesotaβeither the court or the U.S. Attorney's Officeβand how they are handling all of this, please reach out. I am at crg.32 on Signal.
Iβm seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: βNo, I donβt have to show you any documentation.β
Because thatβs how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.
We visited Renee Good's memorial.
There, we met a group of Somali Minnesotans β who too have been viciously attacked for weeks βΒ warmly hosting everyone.
Flowers & stuffed animals galore.
Neighbors continually offering sambusas & hand-warmers & water.
Grief. And belief.

Call me a nerd, but yesterday, a federal judge in Pennsylvania cited my reporting in a ruling against the DOJ in a case challenging Trump-era actions targeting transgender people.

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

The best reading of this article: Trump is going to use FDA to restrict medication abortion, but he wants to wait until after the midterms so the Republicans don't experience blowback. But that just makes the midterms more important. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

My thing about birthright citizenship and βoriginalismβ is likeβ¦ the jurists of Wong Kim Ark in 1898 WERE ADULTS DURING THE RATIFICATION OF THE 14TH AMENDMENT. SO THEY KNEW THE ORIGINAL PUBLIC MEANING AND TOLD YOU WHAT IT WAS IN WONG KIM ARK!!!
Imagine bearing even a small amount of responsibility for this tragedy and not giving a damn.
