Meanwhile, the IRS has been in cahoots with ICE. Judge Kollar-Kottelly explains. “Of the 47,289 taxpayer addresses that the IRS disclosed to ICE through these two mutually exclusive matching processes, 90.3% (i.e., 42,695 addresses) were matched by TIN Matching, while the other 9.7% (i.e., 4,594 addresses) were matched by Address Matching. Id. ¶ 10.” … 1/2 #LawFedi https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/kollar-kotelly-irs-violated-law-thousands-times-ice-data.pdf

Finally (!) finished reading the 170-page (!!) IEEPA/Trump tariffs case, Learning Resources v. Trump. Yes, I’m glad that the immediate result was the Supreme Court clearly invalidating a Trump effort to assert dictatorial power. But the opinions in the case as a group showcase the mediocrity of the Roberts Court as a whole. #LawFedi 1/

“[N]o statute can override the Constitution. Accordingly, troops deployed under the Insurrection Act may not violate individuals’ constitutional rights. They may not, for example, search a person’s home without a warrant. And while the Insurrection Act is an exception to the Posse Comitatus Act, it is not an exception to other federal laws that might apply to their conduct (for instance, the law criminalizing the presence of federal troops at polling places).” https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/insurrection-act-explained 1/ #LawFedi

The Wyoming State Supreme Court has struck down the state law explicitly banning abortion pills. https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/abortion-stays-legal-wyoming-top-164916889.html The court held that the ban conflicts with the state constitutional provision protecting individual right to make healthcare decisions. Interestingly, that civil right was constitutionalized by Wyo in opposition to the ACA. #LawFedi
