More on the threatening email ICE sent to immigration lawyer Nicole Micheroni; this line from her is terrifying: "it looks kind of like a sketchy spam email. It doesn’t look like an official government notice, but it is."

Making official communications look like scams, so that people will ignore them, which will be an excuse for arrest/deportation

In another case, a challenge to #Trump’s order restricting #BirthrightCitizenship, #SCOTUS set a briefing schedule so languid—those opposing the admin’s position were given 2 full weeks to respond—as to send the unmistakable message that the Justices did not share Trump’s view on the urgency of the situation.

Keep in mind that reporting often gets details wrong when it comes to technical details, and this case is no exception. A lot of these reports are misleading in substantial ways.

At its current stance, the request before the #SCOTUS is NOT about birthright citizenship. The Court is not being asked to rule on that, and in fact it cannot rule on that if it wanted to at this juncture.

That comes later in the process.

THIS is about how lower courts implement judicial process, whether they can issue injunctions with effect outside of their jurisdictions.

This is about judicial procedure, not about #birthrightcitizenship.

Ultimately, #SCOTUS could absolutely find that the #Trump order must be blocked, but not in this way.
