The Trump administration bans praying outside or inside the Broadview ICE detention center in the Chicago area.

"Federal authorities told demonstrators Friday that there would be 'no more prayer' in front of or inside the Broadview ICE facility, in a move that mystified local leaders and raised legal questions."

Feds Tell Faith Leaders 'No More Prayer' Outside Broadview Facility

In a possible violation of the First Amendment, federal officials instructed demonstrators to stop holding religious gatherings outside the immigration processing facility in suburban Broadview after faith leaders were denied entry to the building for the third time on Friday.

TL;DR: ChatGPT faces multiple lawsuits in California, accused of acting as a 'suicide coach' and leading to severe mental health crises and deaths. The complaints include serious allegations such as wrongful death and negligence against the AI chatbot. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/nov/07/chatgpt-lawsuit-suicide-coach #law #tech #legaltech ⚖️ 🤖 #autosum

TL;DR: Criminal cases are increasingly impacted by 'AI hallucinations,' raising concerns about delegating legal decisions to technology like ChatGPT. The implications for justice and individual rights are significant and warrant careful scrutiny. https://abovethelaw.com/2025/11/prosecutorial-error-ai-hallucinations-are-popping-up-in-criminal-cases/ #law #tech #legaltech ⚖️ 🤖 #autosum

With its various #tax relief provisions, the admin is now effectively adding hundreds of billions of dollars in new breaks for big businesses & investors. The #Treasury is empowered to write rules to help the #IRS carry out tax laws passed by #Congress. But the aggressive actions of the #Trump admin raise questions about whether it is exceeding its legal #authority.

#Trump & congressional #Republicans have attacked federal workers as instruments of the “deep state,” exercising power beyond anything authorized by the #law. Now the administration is doing the same thing, several #tax experts said, undermining laws that hit the #ultrawealthy & big #corporations.

But the succession of notices the #Treasury & #IRS have issued beginning in summer means the #tax could bring in a fraction of that.

The breaks come in addition to the ~$4 trillion package of tax cuts that #Trump signed into #law in July. The #legislation, passed entirely by #Republicans, heavily benefits #corporations & the #ultrawealthy. It is projected to add trillions of dollars to the federal #deficit & came with steep cuts to #healthcare for the #elderly & #FoodStamps for the poorest.

The primary target: The admin is rapidly gutting a 2022 #law intended to ensure the country’s most profitable #corporations pay at least some federal income #tax. The provision, the corporate alternative minimum tax, was passed by #Democrats & signed into law by President #Biden. It sought to stop corporations from being able to report big profits to shareholders yet low tax liabilities to the federal government. It was projected to raise $222 billion over a decade.

The filing hit many of the same notes as a similar motion filed last month by fmr FBI dir #JamesComey, who is charged w/ lying to Congress & has asked the judge overseeing his case to dismiss it.

Both Comey’s indictment & the one against #LetitiaJames were secured by the same prosecutor— #LindseyHalligan, Eastern District of Virginia interim #USattorney whom #Trump installed in the post after her predecessor, Erik Siebert, refused to move forward with the cases, citing a lack of evidence.

Other career prosecutors in the office had also reached that conclusion, some of whom have since been fired. #Comey & James are both also pursuing motions seeking the dismissal of their cases on grounds that #LindseyHalligan’s appointment was #illegal. A judge has scheduled a hearing next week to weigh arguments on that front.

“Since his second inauguration, the President & his handpicked Department of Justice officials exhausted every avenue to secure the payback the President demanded,” defense attorneys Abbe Lowell & Andrew Bosse wrote. “The charges against AG James constitute unconstitutional vindictive & selective prosecution.”

In a court filing Friday, #LetitiaJames’ attorneys maintained that the mortgage fraud case she’s facing in Virginia is nothing more than an effort at retaliation for the staggering civil #fraud judgment she won against #Trump & his real estate organization last year.
