THREADETTE: Okay, I admit it, @CNN got me to click to see what they thought it was. edition.cnn.com/2019/07/24/pol… 1/
2/ So @CNN thought biggest take-away was that Russia is still meddling "as we sit here." That CNN thought that was the biggest take-away tells me that they haven't been listening to a word from the right. AG Barr testified that months ago, see my @FDRLST edition.cnn.com/2019/07/24/pol…
3/3 No, the biggest take-away was that Mueller didn't know who Fusion GPS was and that that aspect was beyond his "purview." Sequestering myself now to work on more complete thoughts. END
FIX: Sorry, here's the @FDRLST piece that highlights Barr's testimony that apparently CNN missed. thefederalist.com/2019/06/04/oba…

Planned Parenthood sued HHS challenging Big Beautiful Bill's defunding of "non-profit" abortion provides like Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood also seeks a TRO. Will abuse of TROs continue? 1/
2/ Here's motion. A few thoughts. First, this is NOT a bill of attainer as not funding organizations that provide abortion is not punishment but a policy preference. Two: The defunding is NOT based on speech" but on performance of abortions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
3/ And there's a rationale reason for that distinction so no Equal Protection violation. I'd still wager the court will grant the TRO.

The entire case is not available but I'm listening in to hearing. 1/ Image
2/ DOJ: Is not waiving defense to location, should be in Maryland if it is HABEAS. And says it is jurisdictionally barred.
Judge: If had to be brought in habeas because of relief sought, to extent habeas is not jurisdiction, but venue, you waived it.
DOJ: This is a new case so couldn't have waived.
3/ Judge: Same relief sought here.
DOJ: We did not assert a defense in Maryland that could only be brought in habeas. And this is a new claim.
Judge: You say not material whether under APA, non-statutory, habeas.
DOJ: Can't justify filing in D.C. and claim splitting. Reading: Upon arrival the individuals will be granted an immigration status consistent with South Sudan allows them to remain for period determined in South Sudan. Nothing to say detained, we didn't asked for it, and no reason to believe.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Trump scores another SCOTUS victory in Birthright Citizenship Case (NOT ON MERITS) but on whether a universal injunction is permitted. HUGELY significant in every case with universal injunctions. 1/ Reading now. Analysis to follow Image
2/ SCOTUS punts on whether universal relief is necessary in the lawsuit brought by state given the difficulty in providing the states full relief, leaving that to lower court. This punt though doesn't change significance of case before here & in every other case against Trump. Image
