I can't speculate on Trump's health in this new press conference but he just ribbed Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville over Bama losing badly on Saturday. Tuberville coached Auburn, Bama's big in-state conference rival.

So, every second counts. Every single second. Would you be able to save your family's life even with a half hour? Probably not, but it'd be nice to have as much time as possible to make a decision. If nothing else, figuring out how to care for your kids in that horrible moment is top-of-mind.

An intercontinental ballistic missile (ICMB) launched from Russia can reach the U.S. in 27 minutes. An ICBM launched from North Korea takes about 30 minutes; some estimates have it as low as 24 min. That doesn't mean we all get a text alert on our phones saying an ICMB is gonna hit in a half hour.

What are they pumping into Donald Trump right now to give him energy to do this press conference that was scheduled for 2 pm but still hasn't started at 2:36 pm? Any guesses? This is what corporate media and MAGA did 24-7 with Biden. Perfectly fair to ask.

The Trump admin is now moving to effectively double the number of immigration judges by citing flimsy legal authority to deputize hundreds of totally inexperienced military lawyers to take these jobs. Notably, immigration law is infamously complex, often described as second only to tax law.
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick (@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
The currently roughly 680-690 immigration judges are hearing cases every day, but since there are 3.5 million cases in the backlog it would take years to go through all of them. As for what the 600 military lawyers are doing right now, who knows? Other jobs. And they have no training for this.
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick (@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
Many former JAGs serve as immigration judges today, having gone through a competitive hiring process. JAGs are often good lawyers, so I am not of the belief that they will all become rubber stampers. But the command pressure to deny will undoubtedly be *enormous.*

BRASS TAX: The injunction is narrow. * Trump doesn't have to withdraw the 300 National Guard troops currently on the ground in LA. * Those troops can, for example, protect federal property consistent with the Posse Comitatus Act. * The order is limited to California.

Judge Breyer cites the statements made by President Trump and DoD Secretary Hegseth about deploying the National Guard around the country in blue cities as grounds for finding that it's necessary to issue an injunction blocking the Trump admin from continuing to violate the law.
Quinta Jurecic (@qjurecic.bsky.social) reposted
I don't believe this will affect the deployment in DC, because the DC Guard and out-of-district state units are operating under different authorities not affected by the PCA. but it might limit what trump can do in terms of chicago, etc. (or not, depending on how aggressively they want to lawyer it)
