From the article below.

"Plaintiffs must either abandon their constitutional rights or accept being cataloged and branded as 'domestic terrorists,'" reads the lawsuit, which was filed in federal district court in Maine on Monday. "That is a choice the Constitution does not require Plaintiffs, or anyone, to make."

“Since Trump returned to the White House, we have wondered whether the Supreme Court could muster enough independence to save our constitutional system from his efforts to consolidate all power in the Oval Office. Too often, SCOTUS has shirked this duty. But there are still some lines it won’t let Trump cross.”

Democratic Lawmakers Refuse Indictment: Grand Jury Rebukes Trump DOJ

Democratic Lawmakers Refuse Indictment As A D.C. Grand Jury Declines To Charge Six Members Of Congress For Sedition Over Military Video.

Despite the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals upholding the Trump-era policy allowing widespread detention of targeted individuals, two federal judges in Texas are asserting their authority to continue releasing immigrants on constitutional grounds. These judges argue that long-standing connections to the U.S.—such as years of residency—establish a “liberty interest” protected by the Due Process Clause, meaning detainees cannot be held without a fair hearing. Their rulings challenge the appellate decision by emphasizing constitutional protections despite the broader administrative interpretation that supports mass detention. This legal divergence highlights ongoing battles over immigration detention practices and constitutional rights.
