one common thread (among the horrifying many) between the numerous ICE shootings/murders is that no first aid was administered to the victim. armed combatants of the government shot to kill, and if they didn’t kill right away, they gave time for it to happen anyway. it is absolutely grotesque.

The horror has come to our city: ICE has shot a person in Austin this morning. As the facts emerge, I am demanding a full, independent investigation, immediate release of the body camera footage, and accountability for any ICE officer who broke the law.

As I explained the last time this dumb argument made the rounds, if Congress was never allowed to change the Court’s size (something it’s done seven times), that would mean four of the *current* justices (all of whom are Republicans) hold unconstitutionally created seats: www.ms.now/opinion/repu...

Republicans say court packing is 'unconstitutional.' They're wrong.
The argument that court expansion is unconstitutional is weak, transparently political — and most importantly, wrong.

The Voting Rights Act is essentially dead and it’s quite possible that we will, like when a similar SCOTUS gutted civil rights at the fall of Reconstruction, see a disappearance of much of the Black congressional representation, especially in the most heavily Black states, which are in the South.

Another wrinkle: the foreperson told the magistrate the grand jury voted on the 2nd indictment. We now know they didn’t. The foreperson was probably just confused. But it does raise a question — would the magistrate have accepted the indictment if she’d known the truth?

THE
FOREPERSON: So the three counts should be just
one count.
It was the very first count that we did not agree
on, and the Count Two and Three were then put in a different
package, which we agreed on.
THE COURT: So you --
THE FOREPERSON: So they separated it.
THE COURT: Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you.
So you voted on the one that has the two counts?
THE FOREPERSON: Yes.

Okay. And you're just giving me the other

Additional detail in a footnote of the government’s latest filing. Suggests that the grand jury (other than the foreperson and deputy foreperson) had been released before second indictment was brought back to the grand jury room.
23 Afier the Nov. 19, 2025, hearing on the defendant's vindictive prosecution memorandum, the EDVA Grand Jury coordinator informed the undersigned that the grand jury foreperson informed her they had returned a true bill as to counts two and three, and not as to count one. The coordinator was informed by the Deputy Criminal Chief to amend the indictment by removing the text of former count one, and moving the remaining counts, two and three, to reflect as counts one and two. The grand jury coordinator then returned to the grand jury room and presented the corrected indictment to the grand jury foreperson and the deputy foreperson.

Here are Marines carrying out policing functions in direct violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. Although the district court's decision is stayed pending appeal, this was found to be unlawful and there is no doubt the appeals court will uphold this. So the arrest is prima facie illegal.
