BASH: Even Hawley says you should move money around to feed people. Why not consider it?

JOHNSON: Because if you deviate from the goal of reopening the entire govt, Schumer & the radicals will continue to play games. If you do just part of this, it will reduce the pressure for them to do all of it

Really unusual amount of pressure to have a guy drafted as high as he was be ready to meaningfully contribute to a really good team. The mins are gonna be there, given Conley’s age. RD just has to show he can consistently make the right decisions to truly take the role

The timing means the court is not expected to rule before, at the earliest, November 17, which is a full month after DOJ asked SCOTUS for an immediate administrative stay and stay pending appeal.

This is a big, if temporary, punt.

Background at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/trump-admi...

Trump admin asks SCOTUS for an order allowing it to deploy troops in Chicago immediately

Four judges — two Republican and two Democratic appointees — have rejected the Trump administration's arguments in the Illinois case. So, DOJ ran to the justices on Friday.

BREAKING: SCOTUS defers any ruling for now in DOJ's request in the Nat'l Guard deployment case out of Illinois.

Instead, the court asks for briefing about the term "regular forces" in Section 12406 — a matter raised by @martylederman.bsky.social.

The means the TRO stays in effect for now.

CORDER LIST: 607 U.S.)
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2025

ORDER IN PENDING CASE
TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF U.S., ET AL. V. ILLINOIS, ET AL.
The application for stay presented to Justice Barrett is
referred by her to the Court. The parties are directed to file supplemental letter briefs addressing the following question:
Whether the term "regular forces" refers to the regular forces of the United States military, and, if so, how that interpretation affects the operation of 10 U.S. C. §12406(3). The briefs, not to exceed 15 pages, are to be filed by Monday, November 10,
2025. Letter reply briefs, not to exceed 10 pages, are to be filed by Monday, November 17, 2025. Any brief for an amicus curiae under Rule 37.4, on that or other aspects of the application, must be filed by Monday, November 10, 2025.
