America's political elite has decided that climate change is no longer that important or worth talking about, but rest assured, it's still happening, it's extremely bad, and yes, it is going to affect you here in America.

Wow: Per Hamdi's legal team, his only charge was a visa overstay — after Trump revoked his visa.
Despite DHS tweeting that Hamdi supported terrorism, they never charged him with any criminality.
In other words: Trump revoked a journalist's visa, so agents could arrest him for overstaying his visa.

NEW: British journalist Sami Hamdi is being released from US detention.
Trump administration agents detained him two weeks ago at the San Francisco airport — hours after he addressed an event, where he urged US leaders to take an “America First” approach rather than “Israel First.”

I need to emphasize what I say down-thread: this is a temporary, procedural move known as an administrative stay issued in haste by Justice Jackson.
Little to nothing should be read into this ruling for how SCOTUS might ultimately rule on SNAP—either way.

BREAKING: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson issues an administrative stay in the SNAP benefits case, for the First Circuit to issue its ruling on the stay request (“with dispatch”).
Her administrative stay ends 48 hours after that ruling is issued (or upon further order).

![ORDER
The applicants are seeking a stay of two orders of the United States
District Court for the District of Rhode Island, case No. 1:25-cv-569. See D.
Ct. Minute Entry (Oct. 31, 2025) and Docket Number 34 (Nov. 6, 2025).
These orders require the applicants to fully fund benefits for the
Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program ("SNAP") for the month of
November, and to distribute that funding by the end of the day on November 7, 2025 (today).
Earlier today, the applicants asked the United States Court of Appeals
for the First Circuit to stay the District Court's orders pending appeal, and to
issue an administrative stay to facilitate its consideration of that stay motion.
At 6:08 p.m., the First Circuit denied the applicants' request for an
administrative stay, but stated that it "intend[s] to issue a decision on [the
stay pending appeal] motion as quickly as possible." Rhode Island State
Council of Churches v. Rollins, No. 25-2089 (CA1 Nov. 7, 2025).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreibyydayzagrotqzm753km6mib7xxccml3zlxpnonrwd2i6ootfla4@jpeg)
