This is what the Trump administration has done to women and girls:

It’s very clear to me that Mirabelli v. Bonta isn’t the canary. Am I wrong?? What’s it warning of us that we don’t already know??

The fact that trans kids are suffering is our fault. We’ve known it was coming. We’ve been telling you it was coming.

Dobbs killed the canary.

She has a passport but the idea that women would be forced to reckon with names on birth certificates & marriage certificates in order to exercise their right to vote was, for my mom, the proverbial straw. She’s pissed & she’s letting everyone know it. Even if some of it’s in unknowable Sicilian 🤣

of his immigrant father, bestowed upon my mother a traditional Sicilian name that didn’t translate well to English. My grandmother, her mother, hadn’t much power in the marriage (YET), and capitulated. My mom changed her name at 18, but her birth certificate is this name she absolutely despises.

defined it in ways she never previously realized. Last year, when she finally understood the impact of the SAVE Act, she was more pissed off than ever. She *has*not* stopped talking about it — which is phenomenal, bc she tells EVERYONE.

She was especially angry because her father, at the urging

I first started talking about the SAVE America Act when it came up last year (as just the SAVE Act). I warned every woman I knew (and didn’t know — in my free time, I hopped into mom subreddits to explain).

Funny, personal story — my mom, at age 70, is reflecting on her life & how the patriarchy

the way Dave Matthews warmed my old person heart last night 🥹😁

don’t forget that Markwayne Mullin doesn’t become DHS secretary unless Congress confirms him.

A guest tonight on Stephanie Ruhle re mines in the Strait of Hormuz:

“Here’s the problem with the idea that Trump will TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out)…the problem is that Trump always forgets that other people have agency, including Iran, and he might not be able to chicken out.”

omg omg omg

I keep saying it but it’s remarkable to me that Trump *is not* nominating these people; Pam Bondi’s appointing them and that’s *not* how it works.

Trump Isn’t. Even. Trying.

Even with Habba, he didn’t nominate her until the day before the interim appt timeline expired. (June 30/July 1).

Ruh-roh 👀 Will we be adding EDWI to the list some day soon??

I wonder which case offers DOJ the most favorable route to SCOTUS. Definitely not EDVA. 👀 After Blanche’s tweet, def not NDNY!

Prob CDCA/DNV. In fact, I think the CDCA ruling is distinguishable from the DNJ ruling, but I have to revisit it. DNV is currently pending appeal before the 9th circuit.

In addition to the DOJ’s response to Naviwala, we should also keep an eye on litigation in other districts; i wonder how the DOJ will respond to open challenges to U.S. Attorneys / Appointments Clause workarounds in (1) NDNY (2) EDVA (3) CDCA (4) DNV and (5) DNM. Each case is slightly different.

FIRE wrote an amicus brief supporting Claude’s first amendment rights. I’m *so* out.

Kate Manne’s recent essay on the ‘sexy school girl’ trope addresses the way men purposely exploit the idea of kinks/fetishes, making it harder to recognize the underlying pedophilia or misogyny (or in some cases, as here, I suspect, the misogynoir).

I’m fairly certain I’ve come across it on the discover feed of this platform.

Related point: how do you teach law if you’re not teaching case law? People say you still need a lawyer to apply legal judgment — but if students are only using AI in school, then how do they develop legal judgment? Even when we learned westlaw/lexis, we were still reading and analyzing.

‘impede[]’ state pro-life laws.” 🤮

(Red states LOVE a trans rights/abortion rights pile-on)😔

I strongly disagree with this statement: “Rosalie has standing because FDA turned a blind eye to women like her.”

😡 GIRL, BYE.

Louisiana also reasserts its claims the 2023 REMS violates the comstock act🙄

Case 6:25-cv-01491-DCJ-DJA Document 253 #: 9013 Filed 03/10/26 Page 21 of 33 PagelD F.3d 141, 144 (D.C. Cir. 2015) (Kavanaugh, J.); Diamond, 606 U.S. at 115. What matters is who the government "targets." Diamond, 606 U.S. at 115-16 (citing Energy Future Coal., 793 F.3d at 144-145). If the government seeks to "impede" an entity by regulating intermediaries, the targeted entity is one of the "objects of the government action." Id. at 115. In Diamond, for example, the Supreme Court said that fuel producers "might be considered an object" of California restrictions on automakers' use of gasoline in cars. Id. at 114-15. The "entire purpose of California's fleet-wide emissions standards and electric-vehicle mandate" was to reduce gas-powered cars. Id. at 112. Even though the fuel producers were not directly regulated, they were "the targets of government regulations" and had standing to challenge California's "regulations that threaten" their interests. Id. at 120. The Supreme Court reaffirmed this principle just days ago. In Mirabelli v. Bonta, the district court permanently enjoined California's policies that "prevent schools from telling [parents] about their children's efforts to engage in gender transitioning at school unless the children consent to parental notification." No. 25A810, 2026 WL 575049, at *1 (Mar. 2, 2026) (per curiam). After the Ninth Circuit stayed that injunction, the Supreme Court vacated the stay and held that the parents had standing as "objects" of the challenged policies-even though they were not directly regulated and suffered no economic injury. Id. at *3. Standing existed because the State's policies excluded them from critical decisions regarding their children and thus prevented them from exercising parental authority. So too here. FDA "targeted]" pro-life states—through the "conduit" of abortion-drug prescribers—seeking to "impede||" state pro-life laws. Diamond, 606 U.S. at 115-116. 'Indeed, that is the whole point of the regulations." I…

Re: traceability — Louisiana jumps at the chance to use SCOTUS’ recent 💩opinion in Mirabelli v. Bonta to argue that, like California parents, Louisiana is similarly the “object” of the FDA’s action. the “FDA ‘target[ed]’ pro-life states—through the ‘conduit’ of abortion-drug prescribers—seeking to

Case 6:25-cv-01491-DCJ-DJA Document 253 #: 9006 Filed 03/10/26 Page 14 of 33 PagelD noted that the congressman's campaign "has spent, and will spend, money, time, and resources" to avoid alleged harms from the challenged law. Id. Because those "expenditures mitigate a substantial risk of harm, [the congressman] has pleaded Article IIl injury." Id. So too here. Like the alfalfa farmers and the congressman, Louisiana has expended substantial money, time, and resources attempting to mitigate the avowedly intended harm caused by the 2023 REMS. Louisiana has indicted two out-of-state prescribers who violated Louisiana law by sending FDA-approved mifepristone into the State. Louisiana has also issued warrants for their arrest. And Governor Landry has completed the necessary paperwork and formally asked the governors of California and New York to extradite these fugitive prescribers. When Louisiana asked Governor Newsom to extradite the California doctor who unlawfully shipped the FDA-approved drugs used to kill Rosalie's child, Governor Newsom provided an unequivocal answer: Gavin Newsom O @GavinNewsom Louisiana plans to sue me because i won't extradite a doctor for providing an abortion. @AGLizMurilt: Go fuck yourself. California will never help you criminalize nealucare.

Ever the puritans, Alliance Defending Freedom lawyers included a copy of Gavin Newsom’s explicit tweet about shield laws -

you know, the one where the California Governor tells the Louisiana Attorney General to go fuck herself.

So. That’s something.

NEW: plaintiff-state Louisiana, and plaintiff Rosalie Markezich, file their brief in opposition to intervenor-defendant Danco’s and GenBioPro’s motions to dismiss their (plaintiffs’) motion for pre-trial relief (TRO or PI).

Recall, the federal defendants (FDA et al) are primarily seeking a stay.

There have always been abortion providers, and there will always be abortion providers. Today, we celebrate everyone who makes abortion care possible. #CelebrateAbortionProviders

*by color I mean the colors that ancestry uses to represent ancient regions! Not color like race! I mentioned it because you can see how the Sicilian color eventually just takes over again lol.

most emigrated to the U.S. by the early 1900s & that’s the first time women got any control. no witches😔

haha this is hysterical! my mother’s side (both sets of her grandparents) is (almost) exclusively Sicilian-according to ancestry dot com, which has her linked to her like 7th and 8th cousins, you can see exactly when someone in the lineage strayed off the island/briefly introduced a new ‘color’ lol

The rule hasn’t changed yet; the public comment period is open until April 6 and we’re urging lawyers (and the public) to comment. It’s an open question whether the rule change is legal.
