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.

Yeah it's the uptown way of saying "this motherfucker over here"
When judges find police/prosecutorial misconduct, it's fascinating when they name the LEO/prosecutor in their opinion; often it's just "the arresting officer" or "the ADA." (Free Student Note idea!). Xinis makes clear it was "Immigration Judge Phillip Taylor" who signed this unusual order.

Honestly if these standards of lawyering are permitted it will no longer rightly be called a “profession.”
A federal judge ruled Thu morning that no order of removal for Abrego Garcia had ever existed. By Thu evening, an immigration judge had conjured a “Immigration Court’s Sua Sponte Order Correcting Scrivener’s Error," Abrego Garcia's lawyers tell the judge in the emergency overnight filing:

It’s tempting to call this a 🤡 show, but only in the sense of scary clowns. This is not how any system of laws is supposed to work, and it’s frankly an embarrassment to every government lawyer involved and to the legal profession to which they belong.
After being released from custody yesterday, Abrego Garcia has been ordered to report to ICE at 8am today, his lawyers say in an emergency overnight court filing trying to prevent him re-detained.

🚨Judge Xinis finds that, incredibly, Mr. Abrego Garcia was never ordered deported in 2019. She notes that every since this saga began all the way back in March, the government has NEVER been able to produce any evidence that the immigration judge actually issued a removal order.
