He'll start a war to:

1. Distract from the Epstein Files
2. Steal oil
3. Justify emergency powers
4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment
5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

1/ Quite the admission in a government Declaration submitted late last night in the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) case:

"It is true that many of the TdA members removed under the AEA do not have criminal records in the United States."

BOASBERG RULES IN FAVOR OF THE ACLU, holding that the ACLU is likely to succeed on the TRO claims that there is neither an invasion as defined under the AEA and that the AEA does not apply to gangs like Tren de Aragua. "I don't think the AEA provides a basis for removal under this proclamation.":

Great background on the Clinton appointee overseeing AEA 2.0.
Some background on presiding Judge Alvin Hellerstein:

* Before today's hearing, he blocked the plaintiffs' transfer.
* During Trump's first term, Hellerstein ruled his admin violated Michael Cohen's 1A rights by remanding him for writing a book.
* In 2005, he ordered release of Abu Ghraib images.

Boasberg notes DOJ says they're representing no one on the third flight was subject to the AEA, so Lee asks that they submit a sworn declaration.

Lee notes the government is distinguishing between the AEA proclamation and a claimed inherent presidential authority, and asks for more on that.

Pretty interesting side note to Yemen story and AEA story. If I heard Goldberg right just now, Trump didn’t know about the leak 3 or 4 hours after happened. And he said he didn’t do the AEA proclamation (which WH tried to clear up unpersuasively.) is he just bloviator-in-chief while others run gov?

Everything is awful, but Sam Alito is really mad, so there's that.

Amazing. Summers banned for life from the AEA including participating in any way in AEA-sponsored events and activities.

Lee then says they're going to argue that the government should be required to give anyone subject to the AEA a hearing before finding that they're covered, and they'll be seeking that later.

Boasberg orders DOJ to say how many people are designated under the AEA. DOJ says again they may refuse.

I don't understand how they could be 9-0 for due process in the AEA case, but not here. Also, unclean hands! Just... evil.

SCOTUS stopped AEA deportations in northern Texas today — but it was much more. The 7-2 court also made clear that the Trump admin still isn’t giving people enough notice before it tries to deport them — and rejected a key argument DOJ made against certifying classes in AEA challenges.

Law Dork:
Breaking: SCOTUS, in a 7-2 vote, blocks AEA removals from northern Texas during litigation
The current notice being given by the Trump administration to those it wants to deport under Trump's AEA proclamation "surely does not pass muster," the court held.

Solicitor General John Sauer told SCOTUS the Trump admin "has agreed not to remove pursuant the AEA those AEA detainees who do file habeas claims" as a key to his argument that SCOTUS should end its current order blocking removals.

On Wednesday, an ICE official contradicted that.
ICE contradicts DOJ filing at SCOTUS that a pending habeas case blocks AEA removal
DOJ argued the Trump administration would not remove people under the AEA while a habeas petition is pending. An ICE official has stated there are multiple exceptions.

BREAKING: A fourth court has found that President Trump's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act was illegal, seeking to stretch the meaning of "invasion" beyond its plain meaning.

The ruling blocks AEA deportations in the Western District of Texas.

Don't forget Trump's belated disclaiming of having personally signed the AEA declaration.

Court orders DOJ to submit, in writing, by 12 pm ET tomorrow:

* How many planes departed the US on Sat at any time carrying people subject to the AEA EO
* How many people on those planes were in that AEA EO category
* Into which countries did those planes land

3) 24 hours is more than adequate notice to satisfy due process requirements for AEA deportations

4) Trump’s public statements shouldn’t be treated as official justifications for the administration’s AEA policies.
