We should not aspire to be "middle of the road" on human rights. This is not a "both sides" issue. There is no satisfying the xenophobic right.

This @NPR piece is damning. They uncovered through FOIA damning evidence of the severe medical neglect that occurs in ICE detention centers, most of which are run by private prisons or are contracted-out county jails. So many people suffer appalling rights violations.

Hey y’all I have codes to the sky place, any mutual want to escape there?
I know the realities of trial reflect the realities of society, in which women are judged more harshly & unfairly but I wish there were a way of mentoring women trial lawyers on how to act in court that raised us all up rather than diminished our style, bodies, & personalities
The dissent is ... wow. "This new rule looks like the Trump administration’s Port of Entry Rule and Transit Rule got together, had a baby, and then dolled it up in a stylish modern outfit, complete with a phone app."
BREAKING: A 9th Circuit panel has PAUSED a federal court order blocking the Biden administration's asylum restrictions at the southern border. The federal court order was set to stop the policy next week. The 9th Circuit panel stayed the ruling through appeal.
Scoop: The Biden administration plans to expand a program that places families who cross the border without authorization under a home curfew. The program will expand to San Francisco and San Diego this week. More cities soon. latimes.com/politics/story…

There should probably be a limit on how long the government can hold you in custody pending trial. Three years seems like an insanely long period of time to propose. But I bet it would get a lot of pushback.
If you want to find out how bad of a problem racism still is in this country, represent an undocumented immigrant family in a horrific wrongful death case where a child died in an urgent care center parking lot because the child didn't have "papers."

After the US created ESTA and began requiring Europeans to register before arriving, it was only a matter of time before the Europeans did it back to us. So now the era of Americans going to Europe without doing anything first will be over. Borders are hardening everywhere.

My son spent a few days in DC with his mom before she flew to a wedding and he came to Baltimore to meet me for college move-in. I was about to go on vacation so I got a fresh fade and line-up on Thursday. The kid found a Dominican barber in DC and got his yesterday.
@maustermuhle The sad thing about this is that then-AG John Mitchell in the 1970s referred to the DC government as “the Amos ’n Andy Taxi Cab company,” and Republicans haven’t overcome their pathetic, reflexive racist contempt in 50 years. Let them attend to their own gardens.
Actually repealing D.C. home rule would run head first into the practical realities of, you know, running the city. And municipal issues aren't particular sexy. Does a member of Congress really want to handle D.C. constituent concerns on trash, potholes, and schools?
There must be a word for the knowledge that the rights you enjoy can be yanked from underneath you by a group of people elected by others.
The funny thing about this is that if you check the congressional record from the debate on whether to give D.C. home rule almost 50 years ago, many members of Congress said they didn't want the responsibility or hassle of handling city issues anymore. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/…
We should not aspire to be "middle of the road" on human rights. This is not a "both sides" issue. There is no satisfying the xenophobic right.
I sat down w Blas Nuñez-Neto, who has the v difficult job of crafting border policies for the Biden team: "Thats actually not a bad place to be when both sides are kind of upset bc it means that youre actually doing something that is middle of the road." thehill.com/policy/nationa…
This @NPR piece is damning. They uncovered through FOIA damning evidence of the severe medical neglect that occurs in ICE detention centers, most of which are run by private prisons or are contracted-out county jails. So many people suffer appalling rights violations.
Stop what you're doing and read this heartbreaking infuriating, masterfully-researched article by @TomDreisbach on the brutal reality of immigrant detention. This is one of the best-cited articles I've ever read, and based on a trove of FOIA docs. @NPR npr.org/2023/08/16/119…
As of today, I am officially a tenured Associate Professor of Law. No, I’m not retired. It’s only a promotion, and I’m just getting started. But I’m grateful. Where I come from, folks don’t become professors. Thank you for mentorship, friendship, love, hate, apathy. Thank you.
Sending people to prison is monstrous, in general, but one of the most monstrous ways we deploy criminal punishment is against people whose children die accidentally. Even if their negligence was a causal factor, THEY LOST THEIR CHILD. Isn't that enough?!
The Board of Immigration Appeals has abandoned its prior “rogue official” formulation for Convention Against Torture claims, and refocused on whether an official was acting under color of law when inflicting torture: sabrinadamast.com/journal/2023/8…
