States' main argument, reiterated throughout, is that admin attempts to turn unlawful conduct into lawful conduct.pic.twitter.com/GYpEtQIRZG

For my part, I'll be at #SCOTUS in the morn for the args, which will follow orders and opinions about 10:15a for about 90 minutes.
As usual, there will be no electronics in the press gallery during the arguments, so expect the first argument reports about noon. #SCOTUS
