From the problematic indictments of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort for their coverage of the protest of a church in Minnesota whose pastor runs the local ICE field office to the unexpected dismissal of Mohsen Mohdawi\u2019s deportation proceedings to a bizarre argument (and more good news) in Kilmar Abrego Garcia\u2019s custody proceedings, we are continuing to see what happens when authoritarian lawyering meets actual federal judges applying actual federal law to the facts and parties before them.  Finally, in today\u2019s footnote: can you sue your ex for telling millions of people about your enormous penis? We debate whether a former football player\u2019s claims are giving BDE or legal shrinkage.
