[U, X2] TRO Briefs -- In New "East Bay Sanctuary" Case Due Tomorrow By 5 PM PDT... Trump Will Lose, Again


Updated Friday night, @ 8 PM EDT -- 7.19.19: The government's specious brief -- 36 pages of it, is now on file -- and it fails to explain where, by simple rule, Trump finds the power to expressly contradict the guarantees of 8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3), 8 U.S.C. §§ 1158(a)(1), (a)(2)(A), and (b)(2)(A)(vi) -- especially where § 1158(b)(2)(C) says the former provisions may not be contradicted, by rule -- any additions must be consistent with them. These proposed additions, plainly are not. End, update.

Earlier Thursday update: Since the rain stopped, and the sun burst through, I had to hop on my bike, ride to the lake, and get some "wave therapy" -- to counter-balance all the endless Trumpian racism. So, as a PSA -- here is a dose of. . . wave therapy [Slim Freedom on vocals]. Hoping to rebalance the Universe, these waves are the result of “timeless raindrops, over rocks. . . from the basement of time” — and the vocals rise, from beneath them: Be brave. Be strong. Persist. Resist.:



End, update.


Now the battle is joined, in full. The able Judge Tigar will hear the plaintiffs' motion for a TRO halting the Trump "rule" in six days.

By late next Wednesday, Trump will be enjoined here. Here's a bit, from the scheduling order entered overnight:

. . .Responses due by 7/19/2019 by 5:00 PM.

Replies due by 7/21/2019 by 5:00 PM.

Administrative record due by 7/23/2019 at 5:00 PM.

Motion Hearing set for 7/24/2019 09:30 AM in San Francisco, Courtroom 09, 19th Floor before Judge Jon S. Tigar.

Signed by Judge Jon S. Tigar on July 18, 2019. . . .


Now you know.

More generally, with Trump allowing racist / nativist chants at his rallies -- and encouraging them, by pausing his speech for 13 seconds, while the chanting continued -- then resuming his attack, without any added commentary. . . on the fine US Representative from Minnesota. . . we as a nation, have crossed an important and foreboding barrier, as of last evening in the Carolinas.

Any person not loudly decrying his fascism is now clearly. . . the quintessential "Good German" enabler of Hitler, around 1939.

A sitting American President would not lead racist chants against a sitting US Congresswoman. Unless of course that President is. . . himself, in fact, a racist / fascist. But I repeat myself.

on a different note; https://www.yahoo.com/news/martin-shkreli-loses-appeal-conviction-133948077.html

Indeed -- no surprise that Shkreli lost. He will be over forty when he gets out, now.

He went in at age thirty-four. As of this morning, at the other property, I have the full opinion -- and some commentary, on the sad end -- to his tale.

Great find, and. . .

Namaste, Anon. . . . hope the wave therapy. . . resonates.
