The judge also rejected the administration’s national-security justification at this stage, writing that the record contains little factual support showing the credential revocations would protect national security. 3/3

Judge Kelly basically says the government’s invocation of “national security” as a reason to ban the media is BS and not the true reason for the Trump media ban. Nor is national security furthered by the ban. Immediate reinstatement ordered.

Tweets from Steve Kastenbaum

Mayor Mamdani was the only senior elected official who stayed at the 9/11 memorial ceremony at the WTC until the end. It started at 8:40 AM, and concluded close to 12:30 PM. Most of the other current electeds left at various times. Former Mayors Bloomberg & Giuliani stayed.

Mamdani stayed until the end of the memorial ceremony at which point he was seen talking with 9/11 victims' family members. All of the other senior elected officials left the 9/11 Memorial before the reading of the names concluded.
