  • I believe the original Federal judge has clarified the order?

    Here’s a link to the ruling issued just a couple hours ago & is requiring a response by early tomorrow morning:

    EDIT: Here’s the direct text:

    The Supreme Court’s April 10, 2025 decision in Noem v. Abrego Garcia, 604 U.S.—–, No. 24A949, affirmed this Court’s Order at ECF No. 21 (the “Order”), and directed that on remand, this Court clarify its use of the term “effectuate,” according proper deference to the Executive Branch in its conduct of foreign affairs. See Slip Op. at 2. To this end, the Court hereby amends the Order to DIRECT that Defendants take all available steps to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia to the United States as soon as possible. Further, as the Supreme Court made clear, “the Government should be prepared to share what it can concerning the steps it has taken and the prospect of further steps.” See Slip Op. at 2.

    Accordingly, the Court DIRECTS Defendants to file, by no later than 9:30 AM ET on Friday, April 11, 2025, a supplemental declaration from an individual with personal knowledge, addressing the following: (1) the current physical location and custodial status of Abrego Garcia; (2) what steps, if any, Defendants have taken to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s immediate return to the United States; and (3) what additional steps Defendants will take, and when, to facilitate his return. To the extent Defendants believe any portion of their submission must be filed under 1 Case 8:25-cv-00951-PX Document 51 Filed 04/10/25 Page 2 of 2 seal, they shall comply with the Court’s Local Rules governing the sealing of materials. See D. Md. Loc. R. 105.11.

    Finally, the Court will hold an in-person status conference on Friday, April 11, 2025, at 1:00 PM ET, at the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, 6500 Cherrywood Lane, Greenbelt, Maryland 20770.




  • Ebikes are mopeds, or basically tiny motorcycles.

    I see inexperienced riders get on these things with just light bike helmets (or no helmet) & tear down the street at dangerous speeds.

    I think ebikes are good, but they need to be treated as motorized vehicles, because they are.

    EDIT: yeah this article is written by an experienced cyclist who just skips right over the dangerous stuff.

    Also the idea evokes aren’t mopeds because they lack throttle is semantics horseshit.
