A.A.R.P. v Trump, the follow up
In sum, literally in the middle of the night, the Court issued unprecedented and legally questionable relief without giving the lower courts a chance to rule, without hearing from the opposing party, within eight hours of receiving the application, with dubious factual support for its order, and without providing any explanation for its order. I…

A.A.R.P. v Donald J. Trump
Big news early Saturday morning, the Supreme Court “ordered Trump administration not to deport Venezuelans under Alien Enemies Act for now” — NPC News. Or did they? There is before the Court an application on behalf of a putative class of detainees seeking an injunction against their removal under the Alien Enemies Act. The matter…

J.G.G. v. TRUMP, 1:25-cv-00766, (D.D.C. Apr 16, 2025) ECF No. 81
The NPCs will have their marching orders by now. Yesterday it was “Trump is ignoring a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling that he return Garcia”, today it will be “Trump held in contempt of court.” Since I’m writing this yesterday, we’ll see how good I am at predicting the NPCs. We need to start on March…

Understanding SCOTUS Talk
Our court system is built around a false or better said, forced, politeness. This means that words have meaning in the context of the Supreme Court that aren’t obvious outside of those that watch The Court. The Education Industry also does this. When my children were in kindergarten, I had a meeting with their teachers.…

Interlocutory State (IANAL)
In the best of all worlds, the states would look at the Constitution, look at their laws, and gut their regulations until every last regulation aligned with our Constitution. This is not the best of all worlds. There are too many politicians who are agenda-driven. There are too many courts that are agenda-driven. The agenda…

Noem v. Abrego Garcia
We won, again. These inferior rogue courts lose and the media plays it up as a win. The short of it, the state (not bad guys) transferred Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia to the El Salvador “super max”. Garcia was under a court order to be kept in the United States. Garcia is a bad person.…

SCOTUS Watch
Watching The Supreme Court is always frustrating. There is a tendency for things to take a long time. David Snope filed a petition for writ of certiorari on September 23, 2024. This will be the third or fourth time he has requested a writ of certiorari from the Supreme Court. It has been granted once,…

Bondi v. Vanderstock 604 U.S. ___ (2025)
This is an outcome that I disagree with. This was a 7-2 option in favor of the state (the bad guys). Thomas wrote a great dissent, I agree with him about the correct outcome. Alito did a better job of explaining why the court got it wrong. On the record here, I would not hold…

Bouarfa v. Mayorkas, (U.S.)
Back in the depths of time, a foreign national wanted to become a U.S. Citizen. He married a young woman who was a U.S. Citizen, living in the U.S. He received his visa to come to America. When enough time had passed, he asked his wife to sponsor him to become a U.S. citizen. She…

Khalil v. Joyce, 3:25-cv-01963, (D.N.J.)
What is the judicial branch of the U.S. Government? The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour,…
