Yep, the TRO obtained by Hampton Dellinger is a very big deal because it is allowing him to do things like this: issuing opinions that the firing of government employees as Musk is doing it is illegal.

Object lesson in why throwing even a bit of sand in gears can help. OSC won TRO last week preventing OSC's own firing. While TRO's in place, OSC rules on firings across govt. Fired employees usu have to show they used admin process before suing in fed ct. Now they have any hope of showing they did.
