3. But, Judge Cobb's order is only stayed until Dec. 11 — see: www.lawdork.com/p/federal-ju... — so, unless she or a higher court grants a stay — or the administration calls for the new troops under a new authority than the existing ones — the new troops would need to leave by Dec. 11, too.

For those who asked, three things:
1. This is most likely just asking the currently engaged states to, cumulatively, send 500 more troops. Under the current agreements, that could be done.
2. The ruling from Judge Cobb is stayed by her, so it's not in effect currently. So, more troops could come.

He ran into a wall where the "make art" button wasn't satisfying because it wasn't actually making good enough art, and instead of trying new things he just requests a stronger button
