Whenever people with cushy jobs they hold onto until they die start talking about raising the retirement age, think about the people whose jobs involve manual labor that takes it toll on their bodies year after year until they are struggling to make it to the age rich people think they should retire

Will is 100% right. Has happened to multiple clients of mine. One judge (not my case) has said that this isn't really release and ordered the person *actually* released. But it's forcing us habeas attorneys to win our cases twice (or more)

On September 9, 2026, Respondents permitted Pablo F. to exit the building where
he was detained, but he was immediately swarmed by four ICE officers and handcuffed as
soon as he stepped outside. (Doc. No. 25-3 at 4:48:45–4:49:26.)3
The officers drove him
to the back of the Whipple building and returned him to a holding cell. (Doc. No. 21 ¶¶ 8–
9; Doc. No. 25 ¶ 5.) During this encounter, officers dislocated Pablo F.’s shoulder. (Doc.
No. 21 ¶ 7.)4
Pablo F. now bringsthis Motion seeking to enforce the Court’s Order granting
the Petition.

Again, Respondents make no attempt whatsoever to support their assertion that
Pablo F. was released. Absent any such argument, the Court cannot agree that a reasonable
person would have felt free to leave when exiting the detention facility and immediately
being stopped by ICE officers. Likewise, absent some argument, the Court necessarily
concludes that Pablo F. was subject to restraints not shared by the public generally when
he took one step outside of the detention facility and was immediately stopped by ICE
officers who forcibly returned him to a detention cell. Because Respondents do not make
any legal argument that Pablo F. was ever meaningfully released from custody, the Court
grants the motion and orders Pablo F.’s release.6
6 To be clear, Pablo F. is not arguing, and the Court is not concluding, that an order of
release in a habeas matter renders unlawful any future arrests. Rather, the Court reaches
the narrow conclusion that because Respondents advance no legal argument in this case to
support their assertion that Pablo F. was released from custody, and because the
uncontested facts show that ICE officers immediately swarmed Pablo F. as soon as he
stepped out of the building, Pablo F. was not released from custody.

I think it is crucial for the health of the Democratic party that the entire consultant class from previous administrations, including and especially Clinton, be told to go home and stop bothering people. They are wrong about everything and have been holding the party back for decades.

Damn, this hit the nerve of Nader's Raiders. I hate him because he empowered wealthy NIMBYs to sue to stop housing and transit projects. Essentially, he helped create a means of regulatory action that favors wealthy land owners. Everything he did after is down stream of that.

The only way to solve the housing crisis is to focus on material outcomes: how many people are housed, how much do they pay, etc. Focusing on making your perceived enemies feel pain is a recipe for counterproductive measures.

this is especially egregious because the housing project being debated will house hundreds of people my rule of thumb is that if the NIMBYs can’t even match the capacity of a new apartment building, their protests should be summarily rejected

Got it, thanks for clarifying! You are dealing with YouTube’s auto-playlist generation, where clicking a single song or album forces it into a "Mix" playlist layout with a custom queue. Unfortunately, YouTube intentionally designed this feature so that if Autoplay is active when you click a music-related video, it automatically forces the video into a Mix panel.

I don't really talk about this directly here, but...I think support for Zionism is much more about identity than money. Zionists aren't bribing leaders to support Israel. rather the fact that Zionism is seen as core to American identity is why it's appealing to donors.

Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.

A lot of Dems could take a lesson from this and openly acknowledge that their opponents are bigots. The resistance (mostly from establishment centrists) to stating plainly what's happening instead of using weasel words for the sake of civility is what makes voters think we're spineless.
