"At the conclusion of a three-hour bail hearing on Friday, U.S. District Judge William Sessions in Vermont ordered that Rumeysa Ozturk be released from detention more than six weeks after she was nabbed off the street by federal officials on March 25."

"Sessions ordered Ozturk be released 'immediately' and with no travel restrictions while her habeas case proceeds in a ruling from the bench a little past 1 p.m., concluding that she has raised 'a very substantial First Amendment claim' in her underlying habeas challenge, in addition to a 'substantial claim' that the Trump administration violated her due process rights regarding her detention as well."

"Öztürk was dragged off the street by masked ICE agents in front of her apartment in Somerville, Massachusetts, on March 25 — yes, that is six weeks ago — in a display of police-state theater intended to demonstrate that the Trump administration would use the full power of the law against any immigrants it can, including those who are in the US legally, like Öztürk, who’s working on a PhD at Tufts University."

"These are very substantial claims of First Amendment and due process violations. This is a woman who is just totally committed to her academic career in a caring and compassionate way. There is no evidence that she has engaged in violence or advocated violence."

"Her continued detention chills the speech of the millions and millions of people who are not citizens. The court finds her continued detention cannot stand and orders the govt to release Ms. Ozturk from custody immediately."

"Today, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested Newark, New Jersey, mayor Ras Baraka when he and three members of New Jersey’s congressional delegation stood outside a private ICE detention facility in Newark called Delaney Hall."
~ Heather Scott Richardson
"New Jersey’s interim U.S. attorney, Trump loyalist Alina Habba, posted on social media that Baraka had 'ignored multiple warnings from Homeland Security Investigations to remove himself from the ICE detention center…. He has willingly chosen to disregard the law.' But, as Tracey Tully, Luis Ferré-Sadurní, and Alyce McFadden of the New York Times reported, videos show him being arrested in a public area outside the facility."
"White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller told repor'ers today that voters elected Trump to “deport the illegals' and that 'Marxist' judges frustrating that effort are attacking democracy. In fact, Trump convinced many voters that he would deport only violent criminals, and they are now aghast at the scenes unfolding as masked agents grab women and children from their cars and sweep up U.S. citizens."

"On Friday, three Democratic members of Congress from New Jersey—Representatives Rob Menendez, Bonnie Watson Coleman, and LaMonica McIver—were admitted to tour the facility, and brought Baraka with them. After the mayor gained entry past the gate, the representatives tried to include Baraka in conversations. At least one of them was shoved by agents, and Baraka was subsequently arrested."

"The arrest of Mayor Baraka is an attack on all law-abiding citizens who object to ICE’s illegal conduct. Protesting illegal conduct by the government is protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution."

"As with the arrest of Rumeysa Ozturk, the immigration agents who arrested Mayor Baraka wore face masks to conceal their identity—a tacit admission that they understand their actions are inconsistent with the rule of law."
"Because Ozturk (and others) have successfully challenged the legality of their detentions by seeking a writ of habeas corpus, Trump administration Architect of Evil Stephen Miller told reporters on Friday that the administration was considering suspending the writ of habeas corpus. ...
The fact that Trump is threatening to suspend the writ of habeas corpus is a sign of his desperation and lawlessness."

"Stephen Miller wants to make it legal for ICE, FBI or any other law enforcement entity to disappear people—and he doesn’t care how many centuries of common law he has to destroy to get it."

"The level of disdain this administration has for the courts, for judges, for orders, for the English language, for basic human dignity is way off the charts of anything we've seen, including this administration in Trump One."

"There's a presumption of innocence, and you don't put people in jail unless there's a good reason that's proved by a certain level of proof"
"The Klan and ICE agents both wear masks—and they do so for the same reason. Neither wants to be identified so they can’t be held accountable for their crimes. The difference is ICE is part of the U.S. government. But instead, today’s ICE is acting like Trump’s 'secret police' as they disappear and even beat up people while wearing masks so we can’t identify them."

"The irony is the Trump regime is demanding universities ban students from wearing masks during protests so they can hold those accountable who may violate the law or school regulations. But when it comes to Trump’s own agents, they want to ensure they can’t be held accountable."

"Trump’s legal claims are bullshit (as Steve Vladeck lays out here). But they are bullshit piled on top of underlying bullshit claims and — as Vladeck also notes — the reason Miller is throwing this bullshit is because those judges have already ruled his claim of invasion is bullshit."
