    Appeals Courts Slowly Awaken to Trump II Threat (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo. In the defining legal struggle of our time — whether the federal judiciary will sustain the rule of law long enough to preserve the essential core of a democracy for us to repair, rebuild, and re-enlarge after Trump II — the jury is still out. Important developments in three different cases yesterday — the Alien Enemies Act, third-country deportations, and Trump’s collusive settlement with the IRS — point in very

    A Critical Moment for the Rule of Law (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This morning the full D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral arguments on whether the Trump administration will be subject to a contempt of court inquiry for not stopping and turning around the deportation flights in the original Alien Enemies Act case, which began way back in March 2025, when the Trump administration sent more than 200 Venezuelan men to El Salvador’s CECOT prison. Each side — the Trump DOJ and the ACLU — was given 30 minutes, but the oral arguments ended up lasting nearly thr

    The Biggest Trump Retribution Scheme Is Coming Apart at the Seams (opens the original)

    A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo. The mother of all “investigate the investigators” retributions in south Florida suffered another major blow with the resignation of Kurt Olsen as its top prosecutor. Olsen’s departure marks the third top prosecutor in a row to leave the probe — though Olsen’s departure seems markedly different. A career prosecutor, Maria Medetis Long, left under duress in April, concerned that the case lacked evidence to proceed.

    Judge Finds Trump Admin in Contempt of Court Again for Wrongful Deportation (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo. The Trump administration was found in contempt of court Friday for wrongfully deporting a young Salvadoran man last month for the second time — after he had already been unlawfully deported in March, then returned to the U.S., before being removed again. U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher ruled that the administration’s conduct violated three separate orders that she had issued in the long-running class actio

    A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo. Let’s end the week with an intriguing — and even amusing — new development in the bogus investigation out of south Florida into the “grand conspiracy” against Donald Trump. As part of the probe, we learned yesterday, DOJ has subpoenaed a group of current and former FBI agents from the Mar-a-Lago documents investigation to provide grand jury testimony. In a very savvy move, lawyers for the agents went to U.S. Distr
