300 members of the Oregon National Guard and 300 more of the California National Guard will temporarily remain Federalized, but will not be deployed to Portland, per an administrative stay just issued by the Ninth Circuit.

FWIW, the panel is one Clinton judge and two Trump judges.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social planning to cover Trump obviously thinking Habeas Corpus is a person who works for Kristi Noem?

Or this not enough of a "Trump Old" scandal for you?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1h

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

Our authoritarianism is run on clichés borrowed from the Eastern Europe of twenty years ago. Paid protestors, disloyal cities, evil Soros, vast conspiracies — it was all tiresome then and there, and now it’s pathetic.

Trump: "They're, like, insurrectionists, they're terrible people. But you really wonder why. Why are they doing it? What are they gaining? Other than they're obviously paid. They're paid a lot of money."

The very first article that the White House highlights is from the BBC, which spoke to a resident near the ICE facility who says they have to sleep with a gas mask because of all the tear gas being used.

Pretty sure the feds are the ones using the tear gas, not antifa.
