DOJ lawyer Eric Hamilton this morning: “The president’s judgement is unreviewable.”

Perry: Federal law permits the federalization of guard troops in three instances, "not whenever (the president) determines when one of them is met."

Greetings from U.S. District Court Judge April Perry’s courtroom in the Dirksen Federal Courthouse. Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul is present, waiting for the high stakes hearing to begin. @wttw.bsky.social

FULL STORY: As lawyers for the Trump administration defended the president’s unprecedented decision to send National Guard troops to Chicago despite the objections of Gov. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson, officials acknowledged that California troops had also been sent to Illinois. @wttw.bsky.social

“Explain Illinois v. Trump in pop girl terms.”

Post from journalist heather Cherone:

Perry asks whether the "petty acts of vandalism" including "slashed tires" and
"keyed cars" is significant enough to impede the execution of federal laws even if it does not make it as "quick and easy" as they would like.
"Some of this frankly sounds like a Carrie
Underwood song."

Hamilton responds, with anger in his voice,
"This is no Carrie Underwood song."

I love some cheeky city rivalries as much as the next, but I love even more how people from all cities are showing love for Chicago, Portland, LA, DC and wherever else is being occupied by the goons and gestapos. I hope we keep the solidarity going even after this all ends. 🌆💕🏙️

This is Rev David Black, minister of the First Presbyterian Church in Chicago. He was shot seven times in the head with chemical pellets by ICE agents as he was kneeling to pray at a protest. He's one of three clergymen that ICE shot in the head.
