We have courts to make sure that government doesn’t lie to its people. Officials can’t just claim something without having evidence to back it up. This is why we have to defend the judiciary’s Constitutional role!

Texas Judge Strikes Down Trump’s Use of Alien Enemies Act to Deport Venezuelans The ruling, which is limited to the Southern District of Texas, prohibited the administration from using the wartime law because the president’s claims about a Venezuelan gang do not add up to an β€œinv...

Rogue, radical judges indeed!

The ruling "by Judge Rodriguez, A PRESIDENT TRUMP APPOINTEE, amounted to a . . . rejection of the White House’s attempts to transpose the Alien Enemies Act, passed in 1798 [while the US] was threatened by war with France, into . . . modern-day immigration policy."

Trump wants to bypass immigration courts. Experts warn it's a 'slippery slope.' The administration's recent actions to fire immigration judges and other steps are chipping away at what was already an imperfect system in administrative courts.

Due process is about fundamental fairness and preventing the government from making mistakes with human lives! Efforts such as these are why we ask you to stand with us and sign at Lawyers4theRuleofLaw.com

Judge skeptical of Trump administration argument that federal courts can't review border declaration A federal judge expressed skepticism over the Trump administration’s assertions that its decision to declare an invasion at the U.S.

"At one point, [the judge] posed a hypothetical question about whether the president β€” upset with northerners taking up residence in sunny Florida where he has a home β€” could declare their presence an invasion. . . he asked, 'Is there just never any judicial review?'"

It's stunning. The agent's affidavit makes clear her court did not have a protocol yet and she could not get hold of the Chief Judge.

Judge, I invite you to visit Lawyers4theRuleofLaw.com and consider adding your signature. Grass roots, across the aisle lawyers' action we're trying to build.

President Trump’s tariff taxes will raise prices for essentials:
Β 
⬆️Prescription drug prices will rise by $70+ a year.
⬆️Food prices will grow by $200+ a year.
⬆️Clothing prices will increase by $900+ a year.
Β 
Americans voted for lower costs, not this.

This means that there are now freezes on removals under the Alien Enemies Act in the Northern, Southern, and Western Districts of Texas (and the District of Colorado and the Southern District of New York, etc.)

There’s still bad case-specific behavior. But mass, summary removals as a policy is off.

Last night, a federal judge in El Paso became the first to review ICE’s claim that someone was an β€œalien enemy.”

It went SO BAD for ICE that not only did the judge order release for the people suing, without prompting he restricted the use of the Alien Enemies Act in west Texas.
