New, from me:
They are trying to shove through the massive reconciliation bill as quickly as possible.
Stepping back, the bill is:
*an assault on the poor to benefit the richest
*an assault on freedom
*an assault on the future

Sharing my latest article, Agency Fact-Making, forthcoming in the @yalelawjournal.bsky.social! The paper describes the fact-making, or epistemic, function of the administrative state and identifies how political control over fact-making undermines democratic norms.

How do the lawyers prosecuting family regulation matters think about the nature and goals of their job? Turns out - it depends - and it doesn’t necessarily align with judgments about what’s best for the kids the system is purporting to protect. @annaarons.bsky.social new paper out in Penn Law Review
In a forthcoming article, I explain how this program - ISAP - works as a form of “conscripted surveillance,” forcing immigrants into oppressive conditions of carceral control that turn them into beacons of community surveillance, giving ICE info that can be used for mass arrests and deportations.
Today, the @nytimes.com published an article on how the GEO Group - one of the world’s largest for-profit prison companies - provides ICE with mass immigration surveillance services.
Breaking News: The law firm Jenner & Block sued the Trump administration, making it the second firm recently targeted by President Trump to fight back in court.

BREAKING: Trump admin says it mistakenly deported a Maryland father who had *withholding of removal* back to El Salvador on March 15. Govt told court Monday it won't bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back. "What.The.Fuck..." one govt attorney told me. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... @theatlantic.com
Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."
Geo Group, a private prison firm that makes digital tools to track immigrants, becomes one of the Trump administration’s big business winners as its tech is increasingly used in deportations.
My paper, Prosecuting Families, is out! As with so many good ideas, it began when a prosecutor said something to me in court that enraged me--this time, "Don't blame me, Ms. Arons, I'm just doing my job!" as she sought to separate 2 tiny kids from their mom. scholarship.law.upenn.edu/penn_law_rev...
