Judge Alsup, continuing his “don’t you try to pull this crap on me” tour from the bench.
Big win overnight for the coalition that won the reinstatement of tens of thousands of wrongly fired feds — & that we are proud to be part of. Judge reverses his earlier ruling and finds that unions have standing to bring their claims in fed court & are not “channeled” into administrative remedies.

Judge: If the court can't review it, POTUS could say *anybody* - like if a fishing boat with Chinese fisherman came too close - the president could say "WE ARE BEING INVADED BY CHINESE BOATS" and could just deport every Chinese fisherman.
DOJ: Congress could repeal or amend the AEA at any time.

NEW: Photo released showing the treatment of 100s of people deported by Trump to El Salvador, in defiance of a federal judge ruling.
Remember, none of these individuals had any due process. They had no opportunity to contest any evidence, if is existed.
A grievous human rights violation.

We are starting to see reports of National Weather Service workers being told to come back to work - with pay - as they have been sent letters saying they were fired 'in error.' This is another example of the DOGE cuts being reversed. This was sent to a fired NWS meteorologist in Idaho.
