KBJ threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business.
-if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her.
-if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet.
-instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case.

The government says they are trying to comply with the previous TRO by partially paying SNAP benefits but they have encountered procedural difficulties that will "take anywhere from a few weeks to several months" to be disbursed. (p. 12)

Plaintiffs have already submitted a supplemental notice informing the court of the social media post from the President where he declares that SNAP benefits will not be paid until the end of the shutdown (defying the courts order).

When the Supreme Court struck down Biden's policies, it was tempting to think: "At least these limits on executive authority will bind Trump if he comes back into office." But no—the court's skepticism of executive power vanished on Jan. 20, 2025. This dynamic is obvious to anyone paying attention!

Judge: That's what I'll do. Prohibit federalization or deployment of any NG troops into Oregon. For all reasons in prior opinion. Deployment of federalized military is ultra vires and contrary to law, violating Title 10, section 12406. I also find it's likely that defendants violate 10th Amendment.

Oregon: Feels like we're playing a game of whack-a-mole. Your honor said there was no basis in conditions in Oregon for federalizing troops. That caused govt to send in CA NG, we filed motion to enjoin, and then we heard about mobilizing TX NG under same design. So we need to broaden relief.
