Acting Solicitor General Noel Francisco just noticed his appearance in Washington v. Trump at the 9th Circuit.

-
We don't even have an SG nominee yet at this point, but Francisco was brought into DOJ as princ dep SG by Trump team, starting right away.
-
In English: Francisco is the top appellate lawyer at DOJ brought in by the Trump team right now. He's going to lead the 9th Circuit appeal.
-
So that’s the sound of his weekend screeching to a halt.
-
I don't imagine he's had a weekend since he began. I haven't.
-
I have to admit, this bunch is disproving the concept that government moves glacially.

Why this TRO and not the others? 9th Circuit doesn't seem to be likely to be any more Trump-friendly than any other Circuit
-
I mean, this was the most broad by far. Others mainly just stopped deportation of those already here.
-
That makes sense, I'm just surprised they didn't move more quickly on earlier rulings.

Any reason why they haven't sought a stay? Any indication the DOJ is dragging its feet on purpose?
