This article very much surprised me. Newark is a city that’s been in decline for my entire adult life. One branch of my family had been there since the mid-19th century, and the older people still lived there in my … Continue reading →
Here’s the ruling, in a 6-3 opinion with Alito authoring: In these cases, we consider whether respondents, who challenge the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for aliens from Syria and Haiti, are entitled to orders postponing the terminations during … Continue reading →
Lots of news on the law front: (1) More indictments regarding the widespread fraud that’s been going on: “Since June 8, we’ve charged 455 defendants across 56, like I said a minute ago, US attorney’s offices and 45 US states … Continue reading →
