TMF? If that refers to his orangeness…I beg to differ. There is a BIG bottom there, literally and figuratively.

The justice department says that Rasha Alawieh, a kidney specialist working in Rhode Island who was deported to Lebanon despite having a US visa, had “sympathetic” photos and videos of Hezbollah leaders on her phone, according to Politico.

Alawieh’s deportation raised concerns because a judge had required 48 hours’ notice before being sent out of the country, and because she was detained despite having a valid visa and a job in the United States. Her lawyers have alleged that Customs and Border Protection ignored that order, and Massachusetts federal judge Leo Sorokin is expected to consider the matter this morning.

Yes, it’s short hand for The Mother F***er.

Yeah he’s a lard-ass, but don’t ever think things can’t get worse with him in charge.

Now, the analytical part of my brain still wants to wait to see if the judges in the two cases I’ve mentioned conclude that these were instances of willful denial of their orders. We may know their answers today, in a matter of hours.
… … … … …
Sure looks like “willful denial” to me.

This is the true test.

They have political cover for teh “gangs” they spirited away because it’s hard to make gang members sympathetic.

But it they deported this professor for some photos on her phone…we are all in a world of hurt.

  • Joyce Vance: “If presidents can do whatever they want, including putting people on a plane and sending them to prisons in a foreign country with no due process whatsoever, then really, who are we?”
  • We are a nation that elected Trump our President in a legally conducted, fairly administered national referendum, duly informed of his intentions and plans. Half of us are concerned, but had our say and lost. Half of us are sociopaths devoid of compassion, empathy and foresight. And that half got what they wanted.

Georgetown University has an advantage over Columbia. Jesuits.

Georgetown Law School has pushed back on a demand from the interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, who warned that his office wouldn’t hire graduates from the school if it didn’t scrub its policies and curriculum of diversity and inclusion initiatives.

Interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Ed Martin sent a letter to Georgetown Law—dated February 17 but emailed to the school’s dean on March 3—demanding the school end all DEI efforts or risk a hiring freeze from his office.

In a letter addressed to Martin, William M. Treanor, dean and executive vice president of Georgetown Law, called out the official for making a “threat” against the school and launching an “attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution.”

“Your letter informs me that your office will deny our students and graduates government employment opportunities until you, as Interim United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, approve of our curriculum,” Treanor wrote in the letter posted on X, formerly Twitter.

“Given the First Amendment’s protection of a university’s freedom to determine its own curriculum and how to deliver it, the constitutional violation behind this threat is clear, as is the attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution,” he continued.

Needless to say, he went on a bit further. But it’s enjoyable to read the rebuke.
