Can somebody explain this to me? If they're committing to not removing him (and presumably the 200mi restriction) then what is the point of objecting to the TRO, if it doesn't change what they're going to do?

To preserve grounds for appeal

Also because they want the option to break their promise whenever Miller gets cranky about it

To appeal what? The TRO that they've committed to not doing regardless of it being in place? Or do they need to object to the TRO to appeal the larger case behind it as well?

The commitment not to rendition Abrego Garcia is as worthless as any other commitment made by the current regimeβ€”good only as long as it feels like it

It was a little weird. Judge Xinis wasn't quite sure what to make of it either.

Okay, thanks! I wasn't sure if it was weird, or just involved some esoteric reasoning that didn't make sense to me, a Canadian who only got as far as the LSATs before pursuing other interests.
