  • Link to the court order, here. The order itself is on page 81.

    I skimmed through the whole thing, and essentially the judge weighed the protestors’ sworn first hand accounts far higher than the one government official’s sworn statements of just having read DHS and ICE’s unsubstantiated report and parroting them, much of which was being contradicted by the video evidence that both parties supplied. Also the judge makes a small jab at the Supreme Court’s malicious stupidity, footnote 33, page 77:

    An open question remains as to whether CASA’s emphasis on applying thestrictures of Rule 23 when granting class-wide relief undercuts the court’s grant of class-wide preliminary relief in A.A.R.P. The Court finds it doubtful that the Supreme Court, through reasoning alone, so sharply reversed course that it indirectly invalidated its own rule of law issued just 42 days earlier. McDonald, 792 F. Supp. 3d at 498 (“There is no reason for me to assume that the Court in CASA intended to walk back a pronouncement it made the previous month in A.A.R.P.”).











  • Edit: Don’t hesitate or wait for my validation, live life the way you want, with as much or as little modern tech in it as you please.

    Have you found ways to reconnect with technology?

    My rule is that I interact with technology on my own terms and volition. I get upset if I get led or ‘tricked’ into an app or consuming some form of media. I access tech when I want to and am looking for something, and try to reject the idea that content should come to me in a steady stream. If I am watching brainrot it will be because I want to click and scroll through brainrot videos, not because it was the next one to play after the video I actually wanted to watch.

    If you want bliss at this endless beach, build your own little FOSS sandcastle. If it washes away, build it somewhere else, and find other people that like to build FOSS sandcastles.











  • Tons of amazing reporting coming from Ken lately.

    Also that explains to me how quickly DHS and PPB were able to paint Luis Nino-Moncada as a Tren de Aragua conspirator, as it seems there are hundreds of agents looking for any kind of link to brandish people in federal custody as terrorist criminals.

    Clearly this is realizing people’s longstanding fears about the US Patriot Act and then going beyond that. I’d imagine the FBI is concerned that these powers aren’t being used “the right way” that there would be public interest in eventually taking those powers away from all government agencies, thanks to DHS’ abuse.
