| 0:00.0 | It's Wednesday, March 20th, 2024, a stunning 180 at the Supreme Court. |
| 0:04.6 | DeSantis Airways might be pack in business. |
| 0:07.2 | An RFK Jr.'s purported VP pick is just kind of weird. |
| 0:11.2 | Next on the AM update. |
| 0:29.4 | On Monday, the Supreme Court extended indefinitely a stay on Texas's new law that allows the state to detain and in some cases deport illegals. |
| 0:34.7 | I didn't report on it yesterday because it's not really news, typical disappointing fare from the nation's highest court. |
| 0:38.0 | But in a stunning turn of events yesterday, the court ruled six to three that Texas can enforce SB4, after all, while the Biden administration's legal |
