The article didn’t explicitly state it, but she was probably released on her own recognizance. (In other words, she pinky-swore to come back for her trial).

Bail is just a tactic to compel the person to come back to court and face their charges by forcing them to pay a fee which they don’t get back unless they show up. This lady is a judge. She is unlikely to disappear before her court date, because it would affect all the cases she is in charge of.

I’ve been reading up a bit on this, and it’s not a reversal at all. From what I can tell, revoking all these Visas all at once was so chaotic and disruptive that anyone who had the means to sued over it, and since all the courts are backing the students the administration is saying they will now put it all back.

But the Administration is not saying that they did anything wrong. in fact, they reserve the right to do this again in the future. They just promised there would be a “framework” in place to make it all less chaotic, somehow .

Any student who was in the home stretch of graduating might having a fighting chance of finishing their degree now. But other students shouldn’t see this as any victory. They will do this again in a few months. Any student with the means to leave and continue their studies elsewhere should go. Which is sad, because it’s what Donald Trump wants. But I can’t encourage any foreign student to come here while our Mad King is doing his thing.

Too late. When you’re a star, they let you do it…

You think Donald Trump ever listens to experts?

I’m surprised he hasn’t claimed diplomatic immunity, as heir to the Swedish Throne

He had a conversation with a clock at 11 pm

No, even Nazis are people. They may be horrible people whose hateful ideology needs to be forcefully purged from society, but they are still people.

Do you know how otherwise same people turn out just as bad as Nazis? It starts by dehumanizing their opponents.

(That’s not necessarily a statement in favor of the Reddit action, that was likely done by a bot anyway so no humans were involved.)

Hey, if the coup fails, these hats also work for Eric…

“It is pretty obviously illegal and unconstitutional,” said Ilya Somin, a professor at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School.

I just wanted to quote that part, for the irony of it

But I doubt that email can be considered sufficient notice in any court. In fact, now that it has been published, I wouldn’t be surprised if it starts getting spammed everywhere just because.

If these incumbents were actually effective, they should be able to win a primary challenge. It might even make them better, because they would have to explain their positions directly, and that can help them in the general election. Why are they afraid of it?

This guy is gonna fund a bunch of challenges and some of them will lose. I have every confidence that he will back whoever wins the primary, even if his candidate loses. So the party ends up better in the end – as long as these new candidates are more likely to win the General Election.

Have him show empathy. That will prove it’s fake.

In recognition of this awesome development, I promise not to shit talk about NJ for the rest of the day. Hopefully I don’t have to make any left turns…

Why are they expecting people to react to emails, anyway? If I got this in my email, I would assume it was just spam. A letter that comes by snail mail would get my attention, though.

Are legal notices regularly sent by email now?

But they don’t mind the pain, as long as they think it is hurting people they hate more.

The only way to not get banned is to never, ever post.

It’s very obvious that the first group has bought into the Conservative lie that most immigrants are criminals, “stealing our jobs” – except the ones they know personally, of course, who came here “the right way” and are “one of the good ones”. While this lie originated in the Right, there are a lot of people in this country of all political leanings who believe it.

If there are certain niche subreddits which you can’t live without, download an RSS reader. They still work with Reddit, for now. They won’t let you post or otherwise interact, but you shouldn’t do that anyway.

I heard that when they told the Pope that he had to talk to JD Vance, he said "Now that’s the last person I want to see…’

Just remember, there’s no ® in consequences!
