1/ One thing that I think is getting understandably overlooked in the coverage of immigration overenforcement is just how wasteful and inefficient ICE is being even when they aren't kidnapping and caging people who should be with their families.

Here's a quick example from my casefiles today:

NEWS: Judge Boasberg orders Erez Reuveni and Drew Ensign to testify in court next week as part of his ongoing contempt inquiry over Alien Enemies Act flights.
Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB Document 200 Filed 12/08/25 Page 1 of 2 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA J.G.G., et al., Plaintiffs, V. DONALD J. TRUMP, et al., Defendants. Civil Action No. 25-766 (JEB) ORDER In response to the Court's Order of November 28, 2025, the Government has submitted cursory declarations from Secretary Kristi Noem and attorneys then at the Department of Justice who advised her. Noem avers that she made "the decision to continue the transfer of custody of the Alien Enemies Act detainees who had been removed from the United States before this Court issued its temporary restraining order in the evening of March 15, 2025." ECF No. 198-1 (Declaration of Secretary Noem). As this declaration does not provide enough information for the Court to determine whether her decision was a willful violation of the Court's Order, the Court cannot at this juncture find probable cause that her actions constituted criminal contempt. See United States v. Young, 107 F.3d 903, 907 (D.C. Cir. 1997) (contempt requires finding that (1) court order was "clear and reasonably specific; (2) "the defendant violated the order"; and (3) "the violation was willful") (internal quotation marks omitted). A referral for prosecution, consequently, would be premature. The Court thus believes that it is necessary to hear witness testimony to better understand the bases of the decision to transfer the deportees out of United States custody in the context of the hearing on March 15, 2025. The events surrounding this decision should shed light on this question. The Court accordingly ORDERS that: 1. Plaintiffs shall attempt to secure the presence of Erez Reuveni for testimony on December 15, 2025, at 9:30 a.m.; 2. The Government shall produce Drew Ensign for testimony on December 16, 2025, at 2:00 p.m.; and 3. Both sides shall appear in person at such hearings and will have the opportunity to question witnesses. /s/ James E. Boasberg JAMES E. BOASBERG Chief

Good editing by @reuters - spliced my full comments across par graphs 2/3 to create a grabbing headline © The truth is: DOGE may not have centralized leadership under @USDS. But, the principles of DOGE remain alive and well: de-regulation; eliminating fraud, waste and abuse; reshaping the federal workforce; making efficiency a first-class citizen; etc. DOGE catalyzed these changes; the agencies along with @USOPM and @WHOMB will institutionalize them! Here's the real story

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.
