Always reassuring when the Government says “these folks don’t have criminal records, we don’t even know who they are, but they’re brown and speak Spanish so we assume they’re part of TdA.”

What kind of juvenile, ignorant, non-logic is that? I'd question whether whomever wrote that went to law school, but the two MAGAt stooges who stood up in court yesterday have long legal careers (as public servants--gasp!), so they know what constitutes a legitimate legal argument.
I am not a lawyer, but that brief is one of the most jaw dropping, poorly reasoned and poorly written bad faith exercises in lawyering that I have ever read. It is a self-owning confession that beggars belief.
This is arguing the govt has no burden of proof and all burden falls to the individual to prove they aren't a criminal for a crime there is no evidence of.
It's like that bad joke about the helicopter door gunner in Vietnam: How do you know who to shoot? If they run, they're VC. If they stand still, they're very smart VC.
How do we know they're TdA members? Because they did nothing.

An American citizen who has no criminal record is even more dangerous based on not knowing what they are capable of.
Fact is 90% of people don't know what it is, confuse it with something else, or worse yet, fall for it.
