This is the kind of filing that lawyers love and everyone else hates - an appellate court staying a stay from one if its own panels, which stopped one (and maybe two but probably not) TROs which themselves prevented government action.
BREAKING: The Ninth Circuit administratively stays the panel’s 2-1 order staying the initial TRO in Oregon v. Trump through 5p PT Tuesday. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The initial Oregon TRO is not stayed.
A resolution on en banc consideration is expected(?) to happen by 5p Tuesday.

We all, of course, fondly recall how compulsory service united the country from 1969-73.
We no longer know one another.
The longest consecutive stretch in American history without mandatory service should end.

Tried to explain the Abrego Garcia situation to someone who summarized “…so the gov wants to keep him in jail in order to prevent the gov from jailing him, which would prevent the gov from jailing him?”
Yes, pretty much exactly that.

Huh. I wonder who could have predicted that?

Interesting article, and I was struck by the repeated description of one person as “the man with the gold-tipped cane”. I’ve seen this in DC reporting when the reporter has a reason to not identify a person by name, instead using a distinct personal attribute that is obvious to insiders.

Worth nothing that counsel for the US was wrong when he said the NORTHCOM General’s declaration states CA Guard was only being used to guard facilities.
First - the General’s declaration states the Guard is helping “personnel performing official functions in downtown Los Angeles”.

It is not, in my experience, a good thing when the judge pulls out a copy of the constitution and asks you what specific provision you are referring to.
