Release the boat videos.
Release the Epstein files.
Release the ICE and Border Patrol body-cam footage.
Justice Brandeis: "Sunlight is the best disinfectant."
And there's so much the Trump administration's doing that needs disinfecting.

This is a truly remarkable moment. Simultaneously debunking Kristi Noem’s lie in real-time and elevating the story of a veteran who was deported under Trump & Noem’s dehumanizing, belligerent deportation policy.
MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?
NOEM: We haven't deported veterans
MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

Even for me, this is pretty in the weeds, but the shift in tone in SCOTUSblog's coverage since Sarah Isgur and The Dispatch took over—more deferential to the Court, more reverential of the justices as celebrities, more credulous and stenographic across the board—has been...notable
Maybe this new blog can respond, in one of its first posts, to the argument that the term “interim docket” is a deliberately misleading attempt to minimize the (very permanent) doctrinal and real-world consequences of #SCOTUS’s rulings on emergency applications?

BREAKING: Workers at a KFC/TacoBell are on strike in Sunnyvale today due to discrimination and for threatening to report workers to ICE for challenging labor conditions.
After years of attacks, enough is enough.
