Description: DOCKET ALERTS:   The Justice Department is suing New Jersey for not letting ICE use state buildings and parks for immigration enforcement. Because the Tenth Amendment is basically a suggestion?   CBP agents dumped a blind, sick, refugee who spoke no English outside a doughnut shop in Buffalo because they couldn't deport him. Local police are investigating his death.   Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is trying to manhandle Anthropic into letting it use Claude for domestic surveillance and autonomous targeting.    MAIN SHOW:   ICE's total refusal to follow the law has flooded federal courts with habeas corpus petitions, and judges are PISSED. On Thursday, two judges in Minnesota and one in New Jersey threatened to hold prosecutors in contempt of court over DOJ/DHS refusing to follow court orders in immigration cases.   The fascinating "Quince sues UGG" antitrust lawsuit is Last Brand, Inc. v. Deckers Outdoor Corporation. The (possibly even true) story of ugh, ugly, and finally ugg boots is told here by the Everything Australian company.   On Wednesday, Judge Brian Murphy ruled that the Trump administration's policy of third-country removals was illegal.   And for subscribers, we'll discuss Pete Hegseth's battle with Anthropic and DHS's theft of more than 42,000 tax returns from IRS's database.   Links   US v.
