Dem #110, overall #111 -->
The official announcement:
Rep. Serrano becomes Dem #111 to back an impeachment inquiry. He’s the third of the day.
Dem #112 backs an impeachment innquiry:
Eleanor Holmes Norton, D.C.'s delegate, backs an impeachment inquiry. Her support doesn't matter to the overall math because she doesn't get a floor vote -- but she does inside the Democratic caucus.

norton.house.gov/media-center/p…
Dem #113 and a big one: Rep. Jennifer Wexton, frmo a tough swing district.
Wexton is from the VA district previously held by Republican Rep. Barbara Comstock. She's one of a small group of other Dem freshmen who won GOP-held districts to call for an inquiry

The others: Porter, Mike Levin, Rouda, Casten, Malinowski, Pappas, Mucarsel-Powell, Schrier.
ANOTHER BIG ONE: Rep. Engel backs an impeachment inquiry. He’s one of the six chairmen Pelosi tasked with investigating Trump. Dem #114
That means two of the six — Engel and Waters — are publicly advocating for an impeachment inquiry. And Nadler has privately advocated. The others are Schiff, Neal and Cummings.
Engel is also an outsize voice in the NY delegation, which includes a few Dems who haven’t backed an inquiry yet — including Reps. Jeffries, Lowey and Meeks.
DEM #115 is another swing district freshman. Rep. Jason Crow: medium.com/@Rep.JasonCrow…
Judy CHU is the 116th House Democrat to back an impeachment inquiry.

BREAKING: The DC Circuit has *rejected* DOJ's effort to lift Judge Boasberg's block on Alien Enemies Act deportations.

Ruling is 2-1, with Judge Walker dissenting.

Judge Henderson (GHW Bush appointee) bases her ruling almost entirely on determination that Trump failed to justify claim of "invasion" or "predatory incursion." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image

Judge Millett (Obama) is focused more on due process and the failure to afford any to the people Trump claimed were members of Tren de Aragua. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Boasberg has taken the bench as he weighs whether to vacate his restraining order on deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
Boasberg comes in hot: Wants to know why the lawyer who originally argued the case didn't show up to hearing Monday. He says the filings since have used "the kind of intemperate and disrespectful language I’m not used to hearing from the United States."
DOJ lawyer Drew Ensign says he believed Boasberg intended the planes to be turned around when he issued his oral order in court over the wekend: "I understood the intent that you meant that to be effective at that time."

DOJ has since said they didn't view it that way.

BREAKING: A federal judge in Maryland has just barred DOGE from accessing Social Security systems, saying the group is on a "fishing expedition" that jeopardizes people's personal data.

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
NEW: Judge Hollander ruled that DOGE was granted unusual access to non-anonymized social security data and could not identify any basis for that degree of access.

She wants access limited, installed software removed and data taken out of SSA destroyed.

politico.com/news/2025/03/2…Image
MORE: Judge Hollander called it ironic that DOGE demanded anonymity for their staffers but “did not appear to share a privacy concern” for people whose data could be exposed at Social Security. politico.com/news/2025/03/2…Image

NEWS: An Indian national teaching at Georgetown was arrested by immigration authorities in Rosslyn, Va. Monday.

His lawyers say he's being targeted for his pro-Palestinian views. His U.S. citizen wife's father was a Hamas adviser.

Badar Khan Suri has not been charged with any crime, but his lawyer says DHS whisked him to detention Monday night. He's since been trasnferred to a facility in Louisiana. His lawyer compares Suri's plight to Mahmoud Khalil.

politico.com/news/2025/03/1…Image
We came across the case earlier today on the federal docket in Va., but the habeas petition was not public. A quick search of Suri's name, though, revealed his Georgetown connection -- as well as numerous articles about his wife, Mapheze Saleh.

HMMM: So the administration reveals in a new court filing (ordered by Judge Bates) that Amy Gleason was actually hired by HHS as an "expert/consultant" on March 4, just a few days after the White House identified her as the administrator of DOGE. Image
MORE: In an earlier filing, without identifying Gleason by name, HHS identified her as being "detailed" to HHS in February (around time she was IDed as DOGE administrator) They indicate she will remain a DOGE/USDS employee while also working at HHS. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
Importantly, the Trump administration has been identifying Gleason as the administrator in other recent court filings but has not noted she is dual hatted at HHS, which might … limit her bandwidth to run the whole DOGE operation.
