I’m wearing a medal (of the three that I’ve been honored to receive from the DoD) right now. I’m horrified to hear that the Chair of the Joint Chiefs got fired illegally. This is an actual crisis.

NEW: The Supreme Court allows Hampton Dellinger to continue serving as Special Counsel, for now, but holds the case in abeyance until the restraining order expires on Feb. 26. A win for Dellinger and a loss for Trump. But this is not the end of the case. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

This was a big success from the Biden admin and the Dem majority in 2018-2019, and it meant that unaccompanied children facing deportation could have the assistance of a lawyer.
