Evasion of peer review is a hallmark of pseudoscience.
But even more insidious is the obviation of scientific scrutiny by publishing in pseudoscientific journals that exist to provide an illusion of scientific legitimacy.

![ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF'S
MOTION FOR A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER
For purposes of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(b), the President and Fellows of

Defendants Department of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, Immigration and Customs
Enforcement, Todd Lyons, Department of Justice, Pamela Bondi, Student and Exchange Visitor
Program, Jim Hicks, Department of State, and Marco Rubio (collectively, "Defendants") and that, unless its Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO"), [ECF No. 4 (the "Motion")],
is granted, it will sustain immediate and irreparable injury before there is an opportunity to hear
from all parties. Thus, a TRO is justified to preserve the status quo pending a hearing and the Plaintiff's Motion is GRANTED.
Accordingly, Defendants, their agents, and anyone acting in concert or participation with
Defendants are hereby enjoined from:
A. Implementing,
instituting, maintaining, or giving effect to the revocation of
Plaintiff's SEVP certification;
