NEW: In the Mahmoud Khalil case, Judge Farbiarz orders the government to give him a COMPLETE LIST of every time since 1975 it has invoked the secretary of state's power to deport someone for foreign-policy reasons—including a description of each case's facts and a copy of the official determination.
May 7, 2025 14:15Roughly translated: "show your work, bitch." LMAO
Wow, and only 24 hours to file it!
DOJ responding with how they are unable to provide this info do to *spins wheel* state secrets.
Federal Judges are starting to feel themselves and it's a good thing.
I imagine the judge already knows the answer to this question. I dont really know, but I bet it's 0.
Ohhh this reads as the judge IS PISSED… like i don’t believe a word you say pissed
He is making them show their work. They have no work.
That's a good order.
After about 10 minutes in Westlaw, I concur with those responding who say that there are likely zero cases. As far as I can tell, 1227(a)(4)(c) doesn't come up in the case law until...2025.
This is beautiful. It is clearly saying "I don't believe you, go back and rethink your answer because it is unsupported."
To paraphrase MP:
“And in the 50 years since 1975, how often has that happened?”
“Taking the 50 years altogether as a whole, I would say almost once.”
“And, is that another way of saying >zero<?”
In other words, he calls Bullshit.
I'm assuming it should be easy because there are probably zero such cases.
Providing evidence? How refreshing! Suddenly the MAGA mantra of "saying so makes it so" is now challenged.
This judge is not playing. It seems they're trying to find out if this was an extra judicial act on the regimes' part, or it's normal for the SoS to routinely order deportations for people with legal status and if so, the context of those deportation orders. That doesn't bode well for the regime.
Judge Farbiarz is making the corrupt admin do their homework!!! Good form! Why should the judge be left to finish the defenses work!! Very smart judge!!! Touché!
Guarantee someone is going to try this: "Chat-GPT, write a list of every time since 1975...."
get their asses, judge!
Homework!
The judge, like any good lawyer, won't ask a question he doesn't know the answer to. I predict they will plug the request into A.I. and copy the answer...judge will bust them for that.
Oh no, homework.. they suck at that.
Ya gotta love this Judge. He’s ordering the government to do something they have no clue how to accomplish. This is going to be an epic crash & burn for Spanky’s illiterate stooges.
They return with a document that says "BUT BUT BUT BIDEN...." and that's it even though he never did it.
Cite them for contempt and throw them in the clink already.
BOOM -- Defendant **Trump Regime DOJ, headed by Barrister Barbie Bondi, is caught in the crosshairs of actual justice vs DOJ's ludicrous fact- and law-free positions.
I love it when judges give homework.
Exhibit A:
I just want this man released. He did nothing wrong. It’s so sad and cruel.
This sounds like a week 4 law school assignment for a class full of know it all legacy students.
This is how you hold the government accountable for its arguments.
Whole lotta natta' coming. That's my take.
I think the judge just asked for a blank sheet of paper.
Smart. Taking a look at its recent historical usage will either show it is typically used in this manner OR it will highlight the corrupt and unwarranted way in which it is now being used.
Finally judge is making Rubio accountable for his actions.
The judge is pretty disgusted. I don't blame him a bit.
The answer is less than zero…
Wonder if setting the cutoff just this side of Nixon was premeditated
Your honour the list is state secret too
Important.
A brilliant way to say that the law refuses to accept that we live in Year Zero.
That’ll either be a short list, or a list of cases where the government was blocked by the courts for trying to violate the law.
Zero, zip, nada, none, there aren’t any sir.
Accountability and push-back!
I'm gonna go with: 0. How bout you?
I don’t believe they will comply but we shall see?
Trump admin: "ain't read all that."
ChatGPT to the rescue- made up cases to come…
I can't wait to read the DOJ response under Bondi. 😂Talk about a high hurdle.
IIRC, a UC Berkeley law professor said recently that before Trump it was invoked 15 times out of 11 million immigration cases.
Are there any such deportation? My off the cuff guess is, no there isn't.
The only cases appearing on Google Scholar are Trump 2025 cases.
Orange Mussolini must be deposed
Well that’s going to keep the DOJ busy .
Thanks so much! 👍
He’s asking for the receipt…
The DOJ will just ask ChatGPT.
In other words: "Retract this ridiculous case"
Ouch!
Somebody just got handed their ass
Thank God for the Nonpartisan judges, who R standing N the way of Trump & his CORRUPT THUG ARMY he calls a cabinet. If only Congress, all of Congress would do their jobs & represent the people instead of their self interest & deranged "Orange 👑" worship, Then Guardrails Would Box "CHUMP" In!
🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻
Love it - get to work and give me the facts!
This is exactly how it’s done.
That should keep them busy..👍
Give them a taste of their own medicine..😂
Oh, this is rich! That's the way to do it.
Love that it is a 'pop quiz' and they have until tomorrow morning to produce it.. LOVE IT for these MAGA types.
They’re not gonna find that. They’ll just make shit up and look like idiots again. Then disobey the ruling.
Hopefully something good comes of this though.
Thank you, Judge Farbiarz
24 hours is way too long for the number of cases.
What is significant about 1975?
What's the deadline for this?
cue the dramatic music...
For judicial economy, the list is to be posted on the Signal app, making public access easier. And no one will know you’ve downloaded it.
Don’t know how to use Signal? DOD to offer a “how to” video on YouTube.
…looks like sec Rubio might be going through some things after all 🥂
Ballsy. That's a smart judge.
But that's like homework and they suck at homework
Oh no! Homework? The current government attorneys are going to be hard at work, I’m sure. It might be too much for them. They weren’t built for homework or anything outside of interviews on Fox News Lies.
Judge is schooling DOJ
🔥🔥🔥
GOOD!
So, looks like the deadline has passed. How’d they do with their response? Contempt order entered yet?
😂🤣👇🤣 This outta be good.
Homework. I like it!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wow! Awesome!
YIKES!!!!!!!!!!
A daunting task for that ship of fools!
Awesome

What does this mean?

Our current political system has Americans bent over a barrel. We’re exploited, robbed of our education, wealth and health, deported, jailed and murdered before our eyes. We must stand up to this tyranny; engage in a general strike; bring the country to a standstill until the orange plague resigns!
I hope the deadline to submit is tomorrow?
