JD Vance: "The way that we control Venezuela is we control the purse strings, we control the energy resources. And we tell the regime, 'You're allowed to sell the oil so long as you serve America's national interests.'"

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

Noem says ICE officers are trained to kill civilians in cold blood. If so, G"d help us.
Noem on Mayor Frey: "He doesn't know what he's talking out. It's very clear that this individual was harassing and impeding law enforcement operations. This officer followed his training, did exactly what he's been taught to do in that situation."

No, federal agents do not have absolute immunity from start charges, no matter what the Trump administration claims.

Essentially any specialized, distinct area of law—patents, immigration, and labor all come to mind—should run through specialized judges appointed based on merit for long terms and supervised by district court judges, to whom their Reports and Recommendations are appealable.

yep, i kind of think you can use supreme court reform as a vehicle through which to do a large, and necessary, expansion of the entire federal judiciary
"Expand the number and types of inferior judicial officers like magistrate judges and bankruptcy judges overseen by district courts, which are also tripled in size," more and more people are saying.
massively increase the number of immigration judges, make them real courts, and give as many people as possible clean in-out decisions within in 90 days is the 'install linux, problem solved' of immigration issues in that the solution is not really complicated, it's just really hard
