  • Trump admin sends national guard
  • State sues to stop the troops from being sent
  • Court grants a temporary block on sending troops pending a final determination
  • Trump admin asks 9th Circuit to intervene and block the ruling that prevented them from sending troops, arguing that they needed to send 25% of all Federal Protection Service agents to safeguard ICE, which left others vulnerable, and that the national guard deployment would alleviate that problem.
  • Based partially on this 25% stat, 9th Circuit agrees to block the lower court's temporary order preventing troops from being sent to Oregon. This did not stop the lawsuit, but did allow the troops to be sent while the lawsuit proceeded
  • Plaintiffs (state of Oregon) informed the 9th Circuit that the number of FPS agents sent at a single time was not 25% (actually closer to 7%), and requests that their decision be reversed. 9th Circuit reviews the situation and agrees, reinstating the temporary order that prevents the Trump admin from sending troops to Oregon

This sounds an awful lot like a story Gary made up to cover for his mistake /s

It's called "Call of Cthulhu", not "Sighting of Cthulhu", forehead

I've played a lot of D&D over the years. Hundreds of hours.

But these so-called "dungeons"? No captives. Not even any cells. That's not a dungeon. that's a glorified cave.

And don't even get me started on the dragons. Dragonborn? Sure, I've seen plenty. Heard my fair share of Draconic. And wyverns are fairly common I suppose but that's like pointing at all the dogs in the world and saying "we're infested with wolves!"

I'm beginning to feel like I've been lied to all this time.

The problem isn't the concept of qualified immunity, it's the implementation and application.

You realize this is the exception in the US, not the rule, right?

Contempt of court for failing to abide by the ruling. But of course that can be put off as it goes through appeals for a while.
