I gotta say. The Secretary of Defense getting yelled at by the honor guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Veterans Day is a new one. I did not have that one marked down as a possibility. Didn't even think that could happen. Every day is a fun new little adventure.

![MINUTE ORDER. The Court has reviewed the Government's 126 Motion to Stay the Court's Order Granting Relief Under 5 U.S.C. § 705 and 127 4 Plaintiffs' Motion to Set Briefing Schedule. The Government took three business days from the Court's decision to file the motion. They now ask the Court to rule within one business day and three hours and do so without identifying any basis for this rushed timetable. Due to the serious issues presented in this litigation, Plaintiffs should be afforded at least the same amount of time as the Government to brief their opposition.
At the hearing on the Government's Motion, the Court expects the Government to articulate, among other things, how the irreparable harm and other stay factors weigh in the Government's favor. The Government contends that the Court "intru[des]... in the workings of a coordinate branch of the Government." Dkt. 126 at 22 (citation omitted). But missing is any concrete example of how the Court does so. This failure is particularly problematic in light of the Government's representations that it was "remote conjecture," "speculation," and
"theoretical" that it would detain or initiate removal proceedings against Haitian nationals if the Termination went into effect. Dkt. 92 at 42; see Dkt. 126 at 23-24. Either the Government does not have any concrete plans to detain and initiate removal proceedings against Haitian TPS holders if the Court stays its decision pending litigation and therefore its own irreparable harm argument is suspect. Or the Government does have such concrete plans and therefore its argument that Plaintiffs will suffer no "irreparable harm" is suspect.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreid2l2ag2innap7ravycp3m3jvijokr6nlh23szextifdre5aisysu)
