It covers issues from airport security and immigration to press freedom and qualified immunity. • DHS funding disputes lead to TSA agents being replaced by ICE at airports, causing significant delays. • The Justice Department seeks to dismiss charges against two Louisville officers in the Breonna Taylor case, citing "federal overreach." • The Supreme Court ordered the government to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US after his deportation despite an immigration judge's protection. • Justice Sotomayor dissented from the Supreme Court's refusal to hear a case involving a reporter arrested for soliciting public information. • The Supreme Court granted qualified immunity to a police sergeant who used a wristlock on a protester, reversing a lower court's decision. • Six women inmates in California challenged a state law allowing transgender inmates to be housed based on gender identity. • Krystal Gonzalez reported sexual assault by a "trans-identifying biological male inmate" and was accused of "willful misgendering." • Other inmates cited PTSD and religious beliefs as reasons for challenging the housing of transgender inmates in women's prisons.
