Rubio has quietly been one of the most authoritarian figures in the Trump administration.

@ACampaNajjar Marni von AIPAC sure as hell ain't getting my endorsement.

.@SecMullinDHS suggestion Iranians can’t leave Iran without connections to IRGC is NUTS! Iranians don’t even need a visa to enter Turkey- just a passport with 2 blank pages.

@AatifBashar12 I don’t “have to” do anything. I can keep using my existing brain that’s got me this far up all the way up until the time these robots figure out how to kill me with an WiFi-connected toaster.

When I talk about DV (Diversity Visa) program, AI gets thinks I’m taking about a Domestic Violence program.

Starting to wonder whether AI stands for Artificial Ignorance.

One of the highlights of AILA conference was spending time with amazing colleagues like Jessica Arena and THE @SaleemLaw!

@jeff_rehling @SecRubio Wait. Are you saying he should have gone back to the country where cartels assassinated his father to wait out the decision on his asylum claim?

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

If @SecRubio can decide whose speech is ok and whose speech is not ok, none of us are safe.

Congress must repeal INA § 237(a)(4)(C)(i).

The latest memo appears to be the first time Mr. Rubio has used this authority to recommend the deportation of an activist related to a foreign election.

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

@floresandresss Good point, except for one nuance. PP 10998 included Angola and Nigeria, so Alfonso-Royals' point about those 2 countries may be more relevant to PM-602-0194. But not Ethiopia, Liberia, and Pakistan - none of that makes sense.

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

As expected, the government has filed an emergency motion to stay the Dorcas order.

[Andres Flores @floresandresss]

The Alfonso-Royals declaration offers ten countries as evidence of the vetting deficiencies that make a stay necessary — yet five of those countries (Nigeria, Pakistan, Liberia, Ethiopia, Angola) are not covered by PM-602-0192 or PM-602-0194, and upon information and belief, benefit applications from nationals of those countries continued to be adjudicated throughout the period the challenged policies were in effect. The government cannot credibly assert that adjudicating cases from countries with document credibility concerns constitutes irreparable harm when its own agency was doing precisely that for the majority of the countries cited in its declarant’s sworn testimony. This is not a minor evidentiary gap — it is a fundamental disconnect between the declaration’s factual predicate and operational reality that strips the irreparable harm showing of any evidentiary foundation.

No soy un criminal.

Soy un colombiano que ingresó legalmente a Estados Unidos, solicitó asilo siguiendo los procedimientos establecidos y durante 11 años cumplió la ley.

Hoy comparto este comunicado porque creo que la verdad debe conocerse y porque nadie debería ser perseguido por expresar sus opiniones.

Hablar no es un crimen.

Las ideas no se encarcelan.

@IlyaSomin Thanks for including Trump v Hawaii on your list. We need you on the Court.

My ancestors were enslaved in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Now, I am the nominee to become the fist Black person to represent Kentucky in the U.S. Senate. Chains can still be broken.

Happy Juneteenth Weekend.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

FREE SPEECH UNDER ATTACK: Marco Rubio just had a man arrested and jailed, and is seeking to deport him, because he publicly criticized a presidential candidate in Colombia that Donald Trump would prefer to be elected.

He committed no crimes and had an asylum application pending.

Just ran into @daniel_s_larson & new associate Deshna Desai, the EB-1, O-1, and EB2-NIW gurus at Larson Legal!

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

@UncleRezaa I think that’s to justify the hold’s impact on dual nationals.

@NedaSa_ Sorry I’m just now catching up to this. I understand your frustration but we have no reason to believe the extension of the hearing is correlated to the formatting issue.

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

@BowTiedDiscus One of your suggestions isn’t bad. That’s a start. Keep trying.

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

Does anyone know of any lawsuits challenging this Adjustment of Status memo (PM-602-0199)? I want to see if others are thinking about the same approaches we're thinking about.

@ckuck @chuckguoesq Hmm. How do we know it’s not in effect?
