Indiana's governor fired all the elected members of Indiana University's Board of Trustees. Given a recent policy change, he'll be able to fill those seats with appointees. Which means he'll basically have unilateral control over IU decisions, including who gets hired, tenured, and fired.

This matter comes before the Court on a Motion for Preliminary Injunction filed by
Plaintiff nonprofit organizations that provide legal representation to unaccompanied children in immigration courts across the country. Plaintiffs challenge the recent termination of funding for
counsel representing unaccompanied children by Defendants the United States Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS"), HHS's Office of Refugee Resettlement ("ORR"), and the United States Department of the Interior ("DOI") (collectively, "Government" or "Defendants").
Having considered Plaintiffs' motion, Defendants' response, the arguments of the Parties at the April 23, 2025 hearing, and the relevant case law, the Court hereby GRANTS Plaintiffs' Motion for Preliminary Injunction for the following reasons.III.
CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, the Court GRANTS Plaintiffs' motion for preliminary injunction. The Court ORDERS as follows:
Defendants are ENJOINED from withdrawing the services or funds provided by the Office of Refugee Resettlement ("ORR") as of March 20, 2025, under the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 ("TVPRA"), 8 U.S.C. § 1232(c)(5), and ORR's Foundational Rule, 45 C.F.R
.. § 410.1309(a)(4),
particularly ORR's provision of funds for direct legal representation services to unaccompanied children. This injunction precludes cutting off access to congressionally appropriated funding for its duration.
This injunction takes effect immediately, replacing the Court's April 1, 2025 temporary restraining order (ECF 33), and will remain in place until a final judgment on Plaintiffs' claims.
Defendants shall file a status report by no later than 2:00 p.m. PST, Friday, May 2, 2025, to report on compliance with the injunction. Additional status reports regarding compliance with the
injunction shall be filed no later than 2:00 p.m. PST, on May 9 and 23, 2025, and every 45 days thereafter. This Order shall apply to the maximum extent provided for by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(d)(2) and 5 U.S.C. §§ 705 and 706. Non-compliance or delayed compliance may result in a contempt finding and sanctions.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: April 29, 2025

This is much the same logic as arresting the judge in WI. There is obviously nothing wrong with asking law enforcement, including masked officials, to confirm they are, in fact, law enforcement. The goal is to create an absolutely subservient population.

Per his attorneys, Mahmoud Khalil asked to address the court at his immigration hearing today, where a judge gave the green light to the Trump admin to deport him. “This is exactly why the Trump administration has sent me to this court, 1,000 miles away from my family.”

Khalil can raise his constitutional arguments both in his habeas petition (still pending in federal court in New Jersey), and once he is able to challenge the immigration judge’s ruling in the Fifth Circuit. It sucks that he can’t raise them before the IJ, but that’s (unfortunately) not unusual.

An extraordinary separate dissent from Justice Jackson accuses the majority of trying to pass off its dirty work under the cover of the shadow docket and explicitly invokes Korematsu, the Japanese internment case. Wow. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
I lament that the Court appears to have embarked on a
new era of procedural variability, and that it has done so in
such a casual, inequitable, and, in my view, inappropriate
manner. See Department of Education v. California, 604
U. S. ___ , ___ (2025) (JACKSON, J., dissenting) (slip op., at
1–2). At least when the Court went off base in the past, it
left a record so posterity could see how it went wrong. See,
e.g., Korematsu v. United States, 323 U. S. 214 (1944). With
more and more of our most significant rulings taking place
in the shadows of our emergency docket, today’s Court
leaves less and less of a trace. But make no mistake: We
are just as wrong now as we have been in the past, with
similarly devastating consequences. It just seems we are
now less willing to face it.

There's no such thing as a political issue. A political issue is an abstract thought experiment. What you're agreeing on disagreeing on isn't abstract at all. It's people's lives and livelihoods. And that's why demanding every person's life be protected isn't a purity test.
