        [FWIW: I think the AP tweet is missing this case context, which is pretty important. We're following up with the Pentagon.]

        Notably, despite the request for an administrative stay while the motion is considered, no immediate stay was issued today (and the court did not even address that). Panel is: Rogers, Tatel, Millett.
