Hearing in CNN v Trump is now over. White House will lose on clear violation of due process when a fundamental First Amendment interest is at issue. DOJ had no answer to Judge Kelly's points about precedent requiring the government to provide standards prior to the alleged misconduct. None.

Just wait until they look into all the life insurance scammers. We’ve got people who have *allegedly* paid their hard-earned money into life insurance for 30 years, and never even used it once!

Anyone surprised? Trump slammed this project through to get it built before anyone could get in the way. All he wants is another thing with his name on it.
