They are literally firing all the judges they think might grant relief. They just fired a friend of mine a couple hours ago. They have no shame. The bastards want an assembly line for deportations and nothing more; rubber-stamping bootlickers who’ll yes’sir at every new diktat to deny.
Instead of hiring more immigration judges, the Department of Justice just posted an ad for "deportation judges." join.justice.gov

The committee that settled on the phrase “underscoring his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy” should be dissolved and its members compelled to take a remedial course on the scientific method.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

There is only one reason Trump directed Bondi to investigate specific names in the Epstein files.
It’s so the DOJ can stonewall growing calls for their full release.
Not long ago, the DOJ declared there was nothing to investigate.

Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

This memo is supposedly laying out a legal rationale for blowing up small boats that could easily be intercepted (which would be both legal and smarter strategy)
Adding language trying protect personnel that follow the orders from future prosecution is a confession that the rationale is very weak.

Instead of following legal channels or taking steps to change the law, the Trump administration often lies about the facts and claims existing law applies.
But in reality, drugs aren’t military arms, traffickers aren’t terrorists, the US wasn’t attacked, and isn’t at war. That has to matter.

Pretend there’s a war on (there isn’t).
Pretend drug traffickers are terrorists (they’re not).
Pretend overdoses are armed foreign attacks (they’re not).
Pretend “the president says so” means Congress has no role (it doesn’t).
Voila, legal. When factual reality is irrelevant, any law can apply.

The memo purporting to offer a legal rationale for Caribbean boat strikes is awfully close to “assuming Trump’s lies are true, here’s a law that applies.”
But as @gregsargent.bsky.social notes, by trying to immunize officers who follow the orders, it’s practically a confession that they’re illegal.

Trump's illegal murders in the Caribbean just got worse. An internal DOJ memo on the bombings says the victims are waging war on the US, but per NYT, it extensively cites the WH's *own claims* to this effect as evidence!
