Checks and balances exist for a reason — the Trump administration is not above the courts.
4/ “A justice system that keeps any person unlawfully in prison due to its refusal to correct past mistakes is a broken system.” - FJP’s @amyfettig.bsky.social.

This is what a Fascist Government Looks Like. Target the most vulnerable while you undermine the whole.
Glad to see the Detroit Free Press lifting the voices, struggles and stories of the MI trans community pushing back against erasure. We are all in this together.

No teacher should lose their job for treating trans students with dignity and respect.
They want to create full time live action version of #ThePurge for real for real
Thanks @amyfettig.bsky.social

Seems like ICE thinks it’s “1984” - and they serve Big Orange Brother. George Orwell is rolling in his grave.
"Someone says oh my God, we have wrongfully deported somebody and they are in prison in a foreign country, what should we do about it? And the adult in the room is not saying 'get that person back here immediately.'"
@weissmann11.bsky.social talks cruelty and lawlessness with @timmiller.bsky.social
We must stop this!! And keep Schumer from his usual craven negotiation failures.
Great news! The MI Supreme Court rightly recognized what decades of research show: 19- & 20-year-olds share the same hallmarks of youth as teens — less impulse control, developing brains & greater capacity for change.
Mandatory LWOP ignores that reality. #SecondChances
The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a major voter suppression measure that, if it became law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine U.S. democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
We stand with our incredible ally @vera.org because we care about justice and public safety! The Trump administration is destroying both for its political agenda.
My home state Michigan stands up for justice and science!! The brain science tells us that young adults and late teens are different - and let’s be real - every adult knows that already.
The fight for democracy is the cause of our time. I created Democracy Docket to be fearlessly pro-democracy. No corporate overlords, no compromises, it will never obey.

3/ When people can’t afford essentials—and support systems like housing, mental health care, and education are stripped away—desperation rises. And with it, so does crime.
Read more in @amyfettig.bsky.social's latest op-ed:
1/ “By crashing the economy, gutting social services, and weaponizing the government, the administration is setting the stage for a new era of chaos—one in which public safety decreases, trust in democracy declines, and working families are left more vulnerable than ever.”
"The implication...is that not only noncitizens but also U.S. citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes..."
ICYMI: Criminalizing consensual sex work does more harm than good. Our latest issue brief outlines why decriminalization is a smarter, safer, and more just approach — and how prosecutors can lead the way. Learn more: fairandjustprosecution.org/wp-content/u...
State police should not be doing the bidding of ICE or the federal government - they are supposed to be protecting community safety - not spending tax payer dollars on cruel, inhumane political stunts.

If you've never been to a protest, here's your chance to be part of the largest, most historic protest of your lifetime. Protest to save democracy. See you April 5th at the Michigan Capitol or Washington DC.
DA Diana Becton's Neighborhood Restorative Partnership program trains residents in restorative practices to help resolve low-level cases in their neighborhoods. The experience centers the victim, promotes healing and accountability, and connects those involved to the resources they need.
Amen!!!
🚨BREAKING: Federal court rules that the Pennsylvania date requirement for mail-in ballot violates the First and 14th Amendments. Counties cannot reject ballots from counting undated and wrongly dated mail-in ballots.
A HUGE victory for my law firm, our clients DSCC and DCCC and the voters of PA!
Trump ‘couldn’t care less’ if cars get pricey because of his tariffs - Because we pay for his Chauffeurs and Private Jets! He doesn’t have to worry that his car won’t start or that he needs to get a ride to work.
This hack doesn’t care about us.
Proud of journalists & outlets still standing up to power in the face of threats while Big Law, corporations, and other institutions capitulate:
Wired, Mother Jones, Rolling Stone, Miami Herald, Techdirt, Marisa Kabas, the Unpoulist, ProPublica, MSNBC.

1/ Each year, police conduct 20M+ traffic stops—most for minor issues that don’t improve safety. These stops disproportionately target Black and low-income drivers and erode trust. It’s time for a smarter approach.
What we are seeing is the Nazi Playbook - plain and simple. And we all know how that ended. Stand up now before it’s too late.
