Three U.S. citizens arrested and detained by immigration agents are the first Californians to sue federal officers under the No Kings Act, hours after it was signed by Gov. Newsom last week.

Side-by-side comparison of three social media posts announcing the death of former Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert at age 84. On the left, Fox News posts, “BREAKING: Dennis Hastert, longest-serving Republican House speaker, dead at 84,” above a photo of Hastert raising his hand at a microphone. In the center, CBS News posts, “Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, who represented Illinois for two decades in Congress and was later jailed for violating banking laws, has died,” above a photo of Hastert walking through the U.S. Capitol. On the right, MeidasTouch posts, “Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican Speaker in history, has died at 84. Hastert admitted in federal court to sexually abusing boys he coached as a high school wrestling coach. A federal judge called him a ‘serial child molester.’ He was a registered sex offender.” The MeidasTouch post includes an image of Hastert speaking from the House floor with a C-SPAN chyron identifying him as Speaker of the House.

In a filing yesterday in Kennedy Center case, Rep Beatty says defendants have “categorically refused" to provide ordered discovery on Trump’s threats to close or demolish the Center if his name doesn’t go back on the façade. … 1/2 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Perhaps most starkly, Defendants have categorically refused to respond to admissions regarding Plaintiff's Supplemental Authority, which addressed two separate threats by Chairman Trump to close or demolish the Kennedy Center if he was not adequately recognized.
Defendants objected and withheld a response on the basis that such information is outside the scope of discovery, despite this Court expressly authorizing discovery by minute order into that precise topic. On Defendants' telling, although "the information requested" is the " 'subject' of Plaintiff's Notice of Supplemental Authority and facially within the Court's minute order," it is not "related to the 'substance, justification, mechanics, and process' of the Board at its August and September meetings." This directly violates the Court's minute order which made crystal clear that this is a topic for discovery.
