We are witnessing a constitutional system on the brink. The crisis started on Saturday, when James E. Boasberg, the chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, issued an order that could hardly have been clearer: he told the Trump Administration to halt the imminent deportation of immigrants alleged to be Venezuelan gang members.
âYou shall inform your clients of this immediately, and that any plane containing these folks that is going to take off or is in the air needs to be returned to the United Statesâbut those people need to be returned to the United States,â Boasberg instructed the Justice Department lawyer Drew Ensign over Zoom, a hearing called so hurriedly that the judge, away for the weekend without having packed his robes, apologized at the start for his informal dress.
âHowever thatâs accomplished, whether turning around a plane or not embarking anyone on the plane . . . I leave to you,â Boasberg said. âBut this is something that you need to make sure is complied with immediately.â
Federal judges are accustomed to being obeyed, but there is a new Administration in town, and it is dangerously and deliberately testing the limits of judicial power. As Boasberg was speaking, the planes were in the air; authorities had them continue on to El Salvador, which had agreed to jail the Venezuelans for a reported six million dollars.
âOopsie . . . Too late,â the Salvadoran President, Nayib Bukele, posted on X the next morning, along with a laughing-tears emoji and a screenshot of a New York Post story about Boasbergâs order. Bukele was quickly retweeted by, among other Administration officials, Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday demanded the judgeâs impeachment, calling him âa Radical Left Lunatic.â At which point the Chief Justice of the United States, John Roberts, weighed in. âFor more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision,â Roberts wrote in a rare public statement. âThe normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.â
Thereâs been talk for weeks now of an impending constitutional crisis. The term is imprecise, but thereâs broad agreement that it covers the spectacle of a President outright refusing to comply with a court order. And here we areâalthough the Administration asserts otherwise. Now comes an uncomfortable question: Are courtsâlacking, as Alexander Hamilton observed, âinfluence over either the sword or the purseââcapable of doing anything much in response?
J.G.G. v. Donald J. Trump, the case before Boasberg, places the questions of judicial authority front and center. It also goes to the question of fundamental fairness. At issue is whether the government, invoking wartime powers at a moment when the country is not at war, can, on authoritiesâ bare assertion, with no judicial review, take individuals who have been convicted of no crime and deport them to serve hard time in the prisons of another country. The case, even before the possibility of defying court orders arose, encapsulated some of the most dangerous legal tendencies of the Trump Administration: a hyper-aggressive conception of Presidential power combined with an eagerness to stretch statutory language beyond any reasonable bounds.
Trump has been threatening for months to use the Alien Enemies Act, of 1798, to expel Venezuelans who the Administration says belong to the Tren de Aragua gang, without the bother of going through legal proceedings. The law has been invoked just three timesâduring the War of 1812 and the First and Second World Warsâand you donât have to be a diehard textualist to understand that it doesnât apply in the current circumstances: it applies only when âthere is a declared war between the United States and any foreign nationâ or âany invasion or predatory incursion is perpetrated,â again, âby any foreign nation.â
Given how far afield Trumpâs actions stray from the law, it was no surprise that Boasberg was willing to grant a temporary restraining order Saturday to keep the status quo in place. What was shocking was the Trump Administrationâs willingness to so flagrantly violate his order. The Georgetown University law professor Marty Lederman, a Justice Department official during Democratic Administrations, wrote that he couldnât recall âany historical precedent where executive branch officials have embarked on such an audacious action to anticipatorily stymie the proper functioning of a federal courtâlet alone to do so in the midst of a judicial hearing.â
So Boasbergâthis time in robesâsummoned the lawyers to an emergency hearing on Monday, to find out what had happened. What ensued was one of the most extraordinary exchanges Iâve witnessed in years of covering the courts. Boasberg, displaying remarkable forbearance, asked basic, seemingly innocuous questions, only to be met with stonewalling from the Justice Department.
âHow many planes departed the United States at any point on Saturday carrying any people being deported solely on the basis of the proclamation?â Boasberg asked.
âThose are operational issues, and I am not at liberty to provide or authorized to provide any information on how many flights left,â Deputy Associate Attorney General Abhishek Kambli responded. (The answer, from reporters tracking the flights, appears to be three.) âThe information that I am authorized to provide is that no planes took off from the United States after the written order came through.â
Boasberg was incredulous that the department was refusing to provide the informationâeven to Boasberg himself, in private. âWhy are you showing up today and not having answers to why you canât even disclose it?â he asked. âMaybe those answers are classified. . . . Maybe those answers are not classified, but they shouldnât be for the public. Fine also. But you are telling me . . . you canât even tell me which of those applies?â
That was just the start. Kambli contended that the Administration hadnât violated Boasbergâs oral instructions, because it was only bound by the written order issued shortly afterward, which did not specify that planes had to be turned around.
No self-respecting judge would stand for that. When the jury returns a guilty verdict and the judge instructs the marshals to take the defendant into custody, the marshals donât tell him or her to put it in writing. The notion that the Justice Department didnât have to comply with what Boasberg said was, as Boasberg put it, âa heck of a stretch.â
Kambli also argued that Boasbergâs authority over the planes disappeared once they left U.S. airspaceâa particularly cynical position because, as Boasberg tartly noted, the Administration knew, when it chose to have the planes take off, that Boasberg had scheduled a hearing at the exact same time to determine the fate of the detainees onboard.
Boasberg ordered the Justice Department to provide more explanation for why it wouldnât explain itself. âI will memorialize this in a written order, since apparently my oral orders donât seem to carry much weight,â he noted. When, on Tuesday, the department balked again at providing such âsensitive informationâ while Boasbergâs order to halt the deportations is on appeal, Boasberg gave it another twenty-four hours to come up with answers, to be submitted under seal and directly to him.
Just before its latest refusal, the Justice Department made an extraordinary request: that the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit not only reverse Boasbergâs order but remove him from the case, because, it said, he had engaged in âhighly unusual and improper procedures.â (I can confidently predict that this is not going to happen.)
The larger question of what powers Boasberg may have here is knotty, especially now that the detainees are imprisoned in a foreign country. âWe will ask the judge to order the government to get these individuals back,â Lee Gelernt, a lawyer for the A.C.L.U. and the lead attorney on the case, said after the hearing. âThereâs a very serious question about whether a federal judge can ever order a foreign government to do something, and the answer is generally no, but here I think weâre in a very different situation.â El Salvador, he said, is acting less like a foreign sovereign than like âa private prison holding these individuals, and it appears that the U.S. is paying for it.â (The A.C.L.U.âs co-counsel in the case is the public-interest group Democracy Forward, where my daughter is a lawyer.)
But the Administration is clearly spoiling for a fight. (It picked an unlikely target. Boasberg, a Yale Law School housemate of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaughâs, is a former homicide prosecutor and so well respected as a judge that he was tapped by the Chief Justice to serve on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.) âWeâre not stopping,â Thomas Homan, Trumpâs border czar, proclaimed ahead of Mondayâs hearing. âI donât care what the judges think.â Stephen Miller, a deputy White House chief of staff, tweeted at dayâs end, âThe Presidentâs cabinet must be able to spend all their energies focused solely on delivering . . . for Americansânot spending untold hours trying to answer the insane edicts of radical rogue judges usurping core Article II powers. These judges are bulldozing our democracy.â
The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, appeared on Fox News on Monday evening to underscore the supposed dangers of Boasbergâs intervention: âIf we live in a country where the will of the American people is subverted by a single judge in a single court, we no longer live in a democracy.â Let me fix that for her. If we live in a country where judgesâ orders can be ignored by an Administration bent on amassing unchecked power, we no longer live in a democracy.

Sometimes I wonder if I am actually non-binary, specifically agender, but just more masc of centre than I used to think I was
I really want to physically transition to be more masculine. I want to pass as someone who uses he/him pronouns in regular company. But thereâs also the caveat that I like some fem stuff like⌠I donât mind my genitals much but I wish I had a tdick, lol. I hate my chest. The rest of my body is oh kay. But predominantly my own feelings toward my gender are just an overwhelming neutrality or nothingness. To the point I think I might be agender?? (Iâve been wanting to try they/them and it/its pronouns lately, alongside he/him, too. )
But sometimes I wanna be pretty. BUT with the caveat that Iâd be a guy in a dress, a guy in cute clothing, or at least someone clickable as a guy or guy adjacent do you see what I mean?
Iâm kinda almost⌠scared of being fem cos I feel like people will take my transition less seriously if I wear a dress or a cute crop top or whatever. And that Sucks because 99% of my wardrobe is fem and I miss wearing dresses sometimes especially in the summer.
But I just want to be perceived for once as a man in a dress. Not a slightly butch woman lmao. I thought growing my facial hair here and there would help but it has done nada for me. I REALLY need to get back on T. Maybe Iâll do that instead of going on holiday or buying anything actuallyâŚ
Trouble is I have to get a passport in my deadname to be able to transition with my clinic I wanna go with. Then I need to do a statutory declaration because Iâm lonely/have working class friends only and donât know anyone who qualifies as the witness to a deed poll. THEN I have to work to get everything changed over.
I can restart after I have my deadname passport but god. Why do they make this so fucking expensive? Oh right, itâs the transphobia.
All of this to say that Iâm kinda. Exploring my gender a bit again. Idk what people close to me will think (probably that Iâm detransitioning and theyâd be happy lol) except my partner who Iâm like 99% sure will be fine with this (I hope beyond hope they will be anyway)
Iâm just. I feel really lost rn and nothing feels Right when I call myself a man despite my desire to be very masculine of centre, and Iâm certainly not a woman. This is why I shouldnât be allowed to blog on no sleep cos Iâm sitting on the closed loo lid in the WC crying lmao.
If anyone has a similar experience or feeling about gender, would you be open to discussing it? I feel like I could do with a friend and an understanding ear
#not looking for advice necessarily#just kinship/friendship#advice isnât forbidden or whatever but like#Iâd rather you didnât try to figure out my gender for me I guess???#transition stuff

Hello! So bc of all the recent nhs and cass report nonsense I'm looking to get a GRC, and was wondering if anyone knew the best way for getting the statutory declaration signed/witnessed? I've never had to have an actual legal person involved in paperwork before and have no idea where to start ;; That and getting a copy of my birth certificate comfirmed/certified, so if anyone knows how and/or the price solicitors may charge for all this, it'd be much appreciated!
Hi Anon,
If you have a look through our GRC and name change posts, you will find all of the information you need, along with links.

âOne of the most consequential frauds in human historyâ
The DOJâs own pro-vaccine expert witness, Dr. Andrew Zimmerman, concluded vaccines can cause autism, after all. When he told this to DOJ lawyers, they covered it up and misrepresented his opinion in court.
11 current and former members of Congress and staff, both Ds and Rs, recount how they faced pressure, bullying or threats when they raised vaccine safety questions.
The following is a link to and transcript from my report from 2019, and one of the most significant stories Iâve ever done.
Featuring: HHS Secretary Nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CDC Director Nominee Dr. Dave Weldon.
Read on for details.
Nowâwe have remarkable new information: a respected pro-vaccine medical expert used by the federal government to debunk the vaccine-autism link, says vaccines can cause autism after all. He claims he told that to government officials long ago, but they kept it secret.
Yates Hazlehurst was born February 11, 2000. Everything was normal, according to his medical records, until he suffered a severe reaction to vaccinations. Rolf Hazlehurst is Yatesâ dad.
Rolf Hazlehurst: And at first, I didn't believe it. I did not think that, I did not believe that vaccines could cause autism. I didn't believe it.
But there's a hard reality for Yates. The trademark brain disease, pain and inability to communicate thatâs common with severe autism.
In 2007, Yatesâ father sued over his sonâs injuries in the little known Federal Vaccine court. It was one of more than 5000 vaccine autism claims.
Congress created vaccine court in 1988, in consultation with the pharmaceutical industry. In the special court, vaccine makers donât defend their productsâthe federal government does it for them, using lawyers from the Justice Department. Money for victims comes from us, not the pharmaceutical industry, through patient fees added onto every vaccine given.
Denise Vowell, Vaccine Court Special Master: Our hearings are all closed to the public. And thatâs statutory.
In 2007, Yatesâ case and nearly all the other vaccine autism claims lost. The decision was based largely on the expert opinion of this man, Dr. Andrew Zimmerman, a world-renowned pediatric neurologist shown here at a lecture.
Dr. Zimmerman was the governmentâs top expert witness and had testified that vaccines didnât cause autism. The debate was declared over.
But now Dr. Zimmerman has provided remarkable new information. He claims that during the vaccine hearings all those years ago, he privately told government lawyers that vaccines can, and did cause autism in some children. That turnabout from the governmentâs own chief medical expert stood to change everything about the vaccine-autism debate. If the public were to find out.

What Documentation Is Needed for Marriage in Australia?
Getting married in Australia is a joyful and exciting stepâbut to ensure itâs legally recognised, youâll need to prepare the right paperwork. Whether youâre planning an intimate elopement or a lavish celebration with a wedding celebrant, these are the essential documents you must have in place to make your union official.

1. Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM)
The Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) is the cornerstone of your legal wedding documentation and marriage registration. This form must be lodged with your marriage celebrant no less than one month before the wedding date and remains valid for up to 18 months. It acts as your formal declaration of intent to marry. Your signatures must be witnessed by an authorised personâthis could be a celebrant of marriage, a justice of the peace, police officer, or legal professional.
2. Proof of Identity and Age
Each partner must provide original identification documents to confirm both age and identity. Accepted documents include:
Birth certificate, along with photo ID (e.g., driver's licence)
OR a current passport (sufficient on its own)
Your wedding celebrant will verify these details to ensure both individuals meet the legal age requirement of 18 years or older.
3. Evidence of Previous Marital Status (If Applicable)
If either of you has been married before, you'll need to present official proof of how that marriage ended. This includes:
A divorce certificate (for those previously divorced)
A death certificate (if widowed)
These documents must be sighted by your celebrant for weddings prior to finalising any legal formalities.
4. Declaration of No Legal Impediment
Before the wedding day, your celebrant wedding will prepare a statutory declaration stating that there are no legal barriers to your marriage. Both parties must sign this, confirming that you are not already married, are over 18, and are not closely related in any prohibited way. This declaration safeguards the legal integrity of your union.
5. Marriage Certificates
Following your ceremony, youâll receive a commemorative marriage certificate from your marriage celebrant. For legal name changes, visa applications, or updating personal records, you must apply for the official certificate through the Births, Deaths and Marriages Registry in your state or territory.
Final Thoughts
Staying organised with your marriage documents means one less thing to worry about on your big day. A professional celebrant of marriage will not only ensure all requirements are met, but will also provide the support and guidance needed to make the process smooth and stress-free.
Ready to take the next step toward âI doâ? Contact an experienced Sydney wedding celebrant and make your dream day effortlessly legal and beautifully personal.

â
**Better Truthful Question:**
- *"What specific legal mechanisms allow the government to treat living men and women as corporate fictions (strawmen), and how does an Affidavit of Living Status lawfully rebut this presumption?"*
---
#### **2. Establish Ecclesiastical Authority and Charter**
â *Weak Question:* "What historical precedents exist for ecclesiastical bodies operating outside secular jurisdiction?"
â
**Better Truthful Question:**
- *"Under which U.S. Supreme Court rulings (or international law) does an ecclesiastical trust derive its authority to operate above state and federal jurisdictions?"*
---
#### **3. Proclaim Majority and Self-Governance**
â *Weak Question:* "How does the legal system presume guardianship over individuals?"
â
**Better Truthful Question:**
- *"What specific legal codes (UCC, state statutes, etc.) enforce the presumption of state guardianship over adults, and how does a Proclamation of Majority legally nullify this?"*
---
#### **4. Establish the Express Ecclesiastical Trust**
â *Weak Question:* "What are the key differences between a secular trust and an ecclesiastical trust?"
â
**Better Truthful Question:**
- *"How does an irrevocable ecclesiastical trust bypass the jurisdiction of probate courts and IRS taxation, citing specific trust law (e.g., Restatement of Trusts, Hague Trust Convention)?"*
---
#### **5. Record Trust Creation and Express Intent**
â *Weak Question:* "Why is verbal declaration and witness testimony critical?"
â
**Better Truthful Question:**
- *"What common law principles (e.g., ânuncupative willâ doctrines) validate a verbally declared trust, and how does recorded witness testimony make it enforceable against government claims?"*
---
#### **6. Correct IRS Individual Master File (IMF)**
â *Weak Question:* "What legal mechanisms allow an individual to challenge their IRS IMF status?"
â
**Better Truthful Question:**
- *"Which IRS codes (e.g., 26 CFR § 301.6109-1) permit a living man/woman to amend their IMF from âtaxpayerâ to âGrantor/Trustee,â and what penalties exist for IRS non-compliance?"*
---
#### **7. Sync IRS Forms 709 & 706 with Trust Law**
â *Weak Question:* "How can private ecclesiastical trusts bypass tax obligations?"

sometimes i sit and like
i wonder how 2019 <deadname> would vibe with 2025 tal tbh
like i'd tell her she's absolutely in the closet but not in the way she thinks first off
but the fact i'm *happier* now would be like... i don't think she'd believe i could be, being more disabled and weirder and more visibly trans and growing my facial hair a bit and all the 'bad' things that have happened in the past 5-6 years or the weird shit now like growing my facial hair which i've ALWAYS shaved and now i'm kinda. i don't hate it? i'm vibing with it being there more and more. i used to give myself razor burn as a teen trying to shave it all off and i was bullied for it pretty awfully which has always made me reticent to grow it but. anyway.
i also don't think she'd believe that i'd have two amazing friends irl who i've reconnected w who take good care of me and make sure i know i'm loved, a partner who, while our relationship is an ldr, validates me and cares about me and loves me like i love them, and generally a better relationship w my family too cos once i came out as trans a lot of tension and angsting on my part went away
i can't wait to get on t this year, i hope. i also need/want to change my name by stat dec (can't do deed poll as i don't know anyone professional to 'witness' it at all, and my dr surgery and dentist refuse to do that kind of thing. so statutory declaration it is, signed and witnessed by a solicitor.) which is more complex than it sounds cos i need to get photo id in my deadname THEN change my name THEN change all my documents over to taliesin and just UGH. it's gonna be a long and expensive road but it'll be so worth it for me
i also had a discussion w my mother about what she'd have called me if i had been a boy and she said that i'd have been called matthew or matt and i kinda vibe with that as a middle name so... might be taliesin matthew <surname> soon (hopefully)
