I want to reiterate that countless conservative judges issued universal injunctions against the Biden administration, and the Supreme Court never halted the practice. Now, barely five months into Trump's second term, the court puts an end to these injunctions. A brazen double standard.

Judge Farbiarz finds there are extraordinary circumstances here, and no flight risk or danger to community. Also the punishment claim is substantial enough to justify release. He orders Mahmoud Khalil RELEASED ON BAIL.
