1955 Porsche 356 Pre-A Speedster

This 1955 Porsche 356 Speedster is a beautifully maintained classic, finished in elegant ivory over black leather. Under the hood, it is powered by a replacement 1.6-liter SC flat-four engine sourced from a 1964 356SC, paired with a four-speed manual transaxle that delivers power to the rear wheels.

The exterior features a removable black canvas soft top, removable side curtains, mesh headlight grilles, a single decklid grille, driving lights, and body-color bumpers for a cohesive and timeless look. The 15″ ventilated steel wheels are fitted with baby moon hubcaps and wrapped in Michelin XWX tires. Notably, a Reutter fender badge has been installed since the last auction, enhancing its authentic appearance.

Inside, the fixed-back bucket seats are upholstered in black leather with repaired seat bases, complemented by charcoal square-weave carpets and a passenger-side grab handle. The body-color painted dashboard is adorned with a Deutsche Sportwagen Meisterschaften dash badge. The two-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer, a 6,000-rpm tachometer, and an oil temperature gauge, combining classic style with essential functionality.

The five-digit odometer currently reads 551 miles, with approximately 500 miles added under the current ownership since 2021. However, the seller notes that the mileage is not accurate, and the total mileage is unknown.

Originally delivered to Porsche on February 12, 1955, the Karosserie Reutter Certificate of Production confirms factory paint and upholstery colors, with corresponding samples available in the documentation gallery.

Additional highlights include a spare flat-four engine accompanied with the vehicle, a complete tool kit, manufacturer’s literature, a clean California title, black California license plates, and side curtains. The car was factory equipped with drum brakes on all four corners, maintaining its period-correct specifications.

Purchased by the current owner in 2021, this Speedster was previously listed on Bring a Trailer in August 2025. Since then, work has included replacing the fender badge and hubcaps, as well as repairing the seat bases.

Offered now on dealer consignment by a trusted Local Partner, this 1955 Porsche 356 Speedster represents a wonderful opportunity to own a vintage sports car with classic styling and solid mechanical provenance.

Column: Eaton fire disaster response was an outpouring of love to pets

I vividly remember the evening of January 7, 2025. We had closed the shelter early as warnings of life-threatening winds intensified and the Palisades fire began to burn. In my role as Chief Programs & Services Officer, I stayed behind to ensure the animals were safe and staff made it home.

Just after 6 p.m., while on the phone with our Chief Veterinarian, I saw flames erupt in the foothills and felt the weight of what was coming. As the animal disaster response agency in a fire-prone region, we had faced emergencies before, including the Bobcat fire in 2020. We thought we were prepared, but this fire would test us in new ways.

The shelter reopened that night for emergency intake. Around 10 p.m., a colleague called me: “You’d better come down here,” she said. A line of people and their pets stretched from our front doors all the way to Central Park. Dogs on leashes, cats in carriers, and other pets waited alongside their families. There was even a horse being walked down Raymond Avenue.

In that moment, I knew this day would change our lives forever. We made a defining decision right then and there: we would help anyone who needed it, human or animal, in the very best way we could.

The first 72 hours were a whirlwind. Hundreds of animals arrived in need of immediate care. Staff offices, our spay/neuter clinic, and training rooms became temporary housing, while adoptable animals were transferred to partner shelters across the state to create space.

Many animals were still trapped behind fire lines, including pets and livestock. With fire-trained search and rescue teams from LA County and national partners, we mobilized quickly to reach them.

Injured animals — pets, livestock, and wildlife — arrived in our ICU, many suffering from severe burns and smoke inhalation. Our veterinary team treated each pet as if it were their own, providing lifesaving care free of charge, for as long as needed.

I couldn’t be prouder of our amazing staff and volunteers who worked through exhaustion and heartbreak. There were tears, sleepless nights, and endless worry, but no one ever said, “I can’t do this.”

During this unprecedented time, our community showed up for us in ways for which we will forever be indebted. People came to the shelter ready to lend a hand wherever was needed. Thousands of calls and emails poured in with offers to adopt or foster pets. Monetary donations enabled us to continue our lifesaving work without pause.

The steady stream of people seeking safe shelter for their pets was replaced with a line of cars filled to the brim with donations of pet food, litter, and water. Local restaurants dropped off food to our staff and volunteers, helping us get through the incredibly long days.

Our work continued long after the flames were extinguished. Pets whose families lost everything in the fire stayed in our care for months, and some remain with us to this day. We found homes for dozens of fire-impacted animals who had no home to return to, provided veterinary vouchers to families in need of medical support for their pets, and connected displaced residents with pet-friendly housing resources.

A year later, I reflect with pride and gratitude. We saved countless lives and positively impacted thousands of people. We could only accomplish this by working together with our community.

The Eaton fire changed us forever. We emerged stronger, more united, and more committed than ever to helping animals and people in our community. Together, we continue to rebuild, celebrate the wins, and honor the courage, compassion, and resilience that carried us through that January night.

Jimmy Kimmel Delivers Fiery Anti-Trump Alternative Christmas Message on U.K.’s Channel 4

Jimmy Kimmel delivered a politically charged alternative Christmas message on the U.K.’s Channel 4 on Thursday, using the platform to rail against Donald Trump and warn that “tyranny is booming” in America under a president who “thinks he is our king.”

“My country’s president would like to shut me up because I don’t adore him in the way he likes to be adored,” Kimmel said during the address. “The American government made a threat against me and the company I work for. And all of a sudden, we were off the air. But then, you know what happened? A Christmas miracle happened.”

**A Brief Suspension and a Christmas Miracle**

*Jimmy Kimmel Live!* was swiftly brought back on the air after being briefly suspended by ABC parent company Disney in September. The show was pulled following comments Kimmel made in a monologue about the political firestorm that followed the shocking murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk over the summer.

The longtime late-night host was invited by Channel 4 to speak as part of its annual Alternative Christmas Message, now in its 32nd year. Since 1993, figures from across politics and popular culture — including former Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and whistleblower Edward Snowden — have addressed the British public in the broadcast, which serves as a counterpoint to the monarch’s traditional Christmas Day address.

Kimmel “has found himself on the frontline of America’s battle over free speech,” a Channel 4 spokesperson said in a statement explaining the broadcaster’s choice this year.

**An Escalating Feud**

Thursday’s address may further inflame an ongoing war of words between the president and the comic, which escalated after the Oscars in March 2024, when host Kimmel mocked Trump onstage over a social media post criticizing his performance as ceremony host.

Trump, then campaigning in what would become a successful 2024 reelection bid, responded by doubling down on his attacks. The feud continued as Kimmel mocked Trump’s policies, actions, and public statements, while the candidate and later president fired back online.

It ultimately culminated in Kimmel’s suspension, which was reversed quickly following a public outcry over Disney’s decision—a sequence of events Kimmel recounted in his address.

“Millions and millions of people stood up and said, ‘No, this is not acceptable,’” Kimmel said. “People who never watched my show, people who were on record saying they hate my show, spoke out. They marched. They did this all to support the right to freedom of expression. And because so many people spoke out, we came back. Our show came back stronger than ever. We won, the president lost, and now I’m back on the air every night giving the most powerful politician on Earth a right and richly deserved bollocking.”

**Reflecting on a Difficult Year**

On Dec. 19, the host grew tearful during his monologue at the top of his last show of 2025, reflecting on what he acknowledged was a difficult year.

“This has been a strange year. It’s been a hard year,” Kimmel said. “We’ve had some lows. We’ve had some highs. For me, maybe more than any year of my life.”

### Full Text of Jimmy Kimmel’s Channel 4 Alternative Christmas Message

Hi, I’m Jimmy Kimmel. I have no idea if you know who I am, but I was asked to deliver this year’s Alternative Christmas Message (which I’ve heard is a big deal), so I hope you do. But if not, I host what you call a chat show (we call it a talk show) in what you call the colonies, I think? I honestly have no idea what’s going on over there.

I do know what’s going on over here though, and I can tell you that, from a fascism perspective, this has been a really great year. Tyranny is booming over here.

You may have read in your colourful newspapers my country’s president would like to shut me up because I don’t adore him in the way he likes to be adored. The American government made a threat against me and the company I work for, and all of a sudden we were off the air.

But then, you know what happened? A Christmas miracle happened. Well, it was September, it was a September miracle. But the holiday does seem to come earlier and earlier every year, doesn’t it?

Millions and millions of people stood up and said: ‘No, this is not acceptable.’ People who never watched my show, people who were on record saying they hate my show spoke out, they marched, they did this all to support the right to freedom of expression. And because so many people spoke out, we came back. Our show came back stronger than ever.

We won, the President lost, and now I’m back on the air every night givin’ the most powerful politician on earth a right and richly deserved bollocking. That’s a word, right? I used it properly?

And the reason I’m telling you this story is because maybe you’re thinking: ‘Oh, a government silencing its critics is something that happens in places like Russia, or North Korea, or LA, not the UK.’ Well, that’s what we thought — and now we’ve got King Donny the Eighth calling for executions.

It happens fast.

You know it’s funny, we Americans are very proud of not having a king. It’s kind of why we left. Earlier this year, tens of millions of us marched at protests called No Kings. You had some of those there.

And just for the record, we have nothing against your king. I mean, I don’t know if you know this, but his son lives here. We just — well, some of us just have a problem with the guy who thinks he is our king.

After missing deadline, DOJ says it may need a ‘few more weeks’ to finish releasing Epstein files

WASHINGTON — The administration’s historic hostility to releasing the files, politicization of the Epstein case more broadly, and failure to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act have raised serious concerns.

In a statement, senators emphasized that a neutral assessment of the administration’s compliance with the statutory disclosure requirements is essential.

They stressed that full transparency “is essential in identifying members of our society who enabled and participated in Epstein’s crimes.”

Netflix’s Addictive Western Series Doubles As the Perfect Cozy Winter Binge

From Dallas to Yellowstone, soapy Western shows make for some of the best binge-watches. They are messy and entertaining, with intense plotlines that range from land disputes to tangled love triangles. These shows offer the perfect escape, easy to follow and packed with nonstop drama.

The newest addition to this subgenre is Netflix’s *Ransom Canyon,* based on the book series by Jodi Thomas. This show is ideal for TV fans who enjoy small-town dramas, swoonworthy romances, and shocking plot twists. For those searching for their next binge-watch, *Ransom Canyon* is the perfect choice. Now is the best time to catch up on the show’s ten episodes before it returns next year for its already-confirmed second season.

### What Is Netflix’s Soapy Western *Ransom Canyon* About?

*Ransom Canyon* follows the residents of the small town of Ransom Canyon, Texas, most of whom have lived there their entire lives. At the center is Staten Kirkland (Josh Duhamel), a wealthy ranch owner struggling to move forward after two major personal tragedies.

Two years after the death of his wife, Staten faced the sudden loss of his teenage son, Randall (Hubert Smielecki), in a car accident. Now, a year later, Staten tries to rebuild his life despite pressure from his late wife’s brother, Davis Collins (Eoin Macken), to sell some of his land for a new pipeline project.

Adding to the tension, Staten finds himself tangled in a messy love triangle. Just as his feelings for his old friend, Quinn O’Grady (Minka Kelly), start to resurface, Davis pursues a romance with her as well.

But the drama in *Ransom Canyon* extends beyond Staten’s feud with Davis. Newcomer Yancy Grey (Jack Schumacher) arrives in town to work for Cap Fuller (James Brolin), another ranch owner whose land Davis is eyeing for the pipeline. At first glance, Yancy appears to be a hard worker with genuine feelings for Quinn’s employee and friend, Ellie Estevez (Marianly Tejada). Yet, Yancy harbors many secrets, and his true motivations and connections to Ransom’s longtime residents are far more complex than they seem.

Ellie quickly senses that Yancy’s presence isn’t coincidental. She must reconcile her growing feelings for him with the mounting secrets he keeps hidden.

Meanwhile, Randall’s cousin and Davis’ son, Reid (Andrew Liner), is spiraling after the tragic loss. Unbeknownst to him, his ex-girlfriend Lauren (Lizzy Greene) is secretly dating his best friend Lucas (Garrett Wareing). To complicate matters further, Reid faces immense pressure from Davis to succeed, especially now that the family ranch’s future is on the line.

Davis’s drive for the pipeline deal stems from his need to save the ranch that has been in his family for generations—jeopardized by his own father’s financial recklessness. Everyone in Ransom Canyon stands to either gain or lose a lot from the pipeline, adding high stakes to this already tense storyline.

### *Ransom Canyon* Blends Romance and Mystery

*Ransom Canyon* is an addictive watch, and once you start the first episode, binge-watching all ten quickly becomes inevitable.

Beyond romantic drama and business rivalries, the series incorporates a compelling murder mystery. Staten’s wife died of illness, but Randall’s death remains shrouded in suspicion. Initially, it was believed that Randall’s car accident was a tragic but random event. However, Staten begins finding clues suggesting someone else may have caused the accident, whether intentionally or not.

He urges the town sheriff, Lauren’s father Dan Brigman (Philip Winchester), to investigate. At first, the sheriff attributes Staten’s suspicions to grief, forcing Staten to pursue the truth on his own.

Set against the cozy backdrop of a small town, *Ransom Canyon* offers a soapy mix of romantic entanglements, business drama, and mystery. It’s packed with compelling conflicts, primarily revolving around the pipeline, as well as surprising twists about the characters and their intertwined histories.

### Staten and Quinn’s Emotional Journeys

At its core, the series centers on the emotional journeys of Staten and Quinn. After losing both his wife and son, Staten is isolated and angry, grappling with grief. The first season follows his slow path to opening up and caring for others again.

Quinn, meanwhile, has lived a life of feeling overlooked with distant dreams—especially after returning home from a break focused on her music career. Now, she has the opportunity to transform the dance hall she owns into something truly special. However, securing financial backing could mean supporting the controversial pipeline and everything it entails.

Adding depth, Staten and Quinn have long-held unresolved feelings for each other—even after Staten married Quinn’s best friend. Those feelings resurface as they both try to bury them, creating further emotional complexity.

### Why You Should Watch *Ransom Canyon*

*Ransom Canyon* is entertaining, emotional, and intense. Its blend of romance, mystery, and small-town dynamics makes it a perfect binge-watch for viewers seeking a mental vacation.

The series is currently available to stream on Netflix. Catch up on all ten episodes now and get ready for the drama-filled second season coming next year!

Rescuers rushed into flames to save nursing home residents after deadly explosion

**Explosion at Pennsylvania Nursing Home Kills Two, Prompts Rescue Efforts**

BRISTOL, Pa. (AP) — Rescuers braved shooting flames, falling debris, and the threat of more explosions to evacuate dozens of nursing home residents after a blast ripped through a Pennsylvania facility Tuesday, killing a resident and an employee and setting off a frantic search of the wreckage.

Officials said Wednesday they had located everyone after hours of searching. The police chief of Bristol Township described the scene as one of unprecedented heroism. A speech therapist working at the facility recounted feeling the building shake during the blast and hurriedly wheeling out a bed-bound resident, bed and all.

“They were running into a building that I could from 50 feet away could still smell gas, and walls that looked like they were going to fall down,” Police Chief Charles Winik told reporters Wednesday.

Responders spent hours digging through the badly damaged building and checking with hospitals into the night Tuesday to locate the missing. However, officials said they did not yet know the cause of the explosion, even though a utility crew had been on site investigating a reported gas leak.

The blast sent 20 others to hospitals, including one person in critical condition. The rest of the 120 residents were transferred to nearby nursing homes, officials said.

The Bucks County coroner’s office identified the employee who died as 52-year-old Muthoni Nduthu. Authorities did not immediately identify the resident who died at a Philadelphia hospital. Both victims were women.

Nduthu’s sister described her as a great mother to her sons, a devoted wife, a devout Catholic, and very involved in the community. A Kenyan immigrant, Nduthu went to nursing school, loved to cook, and was a hard worker, her sister Rose Muema said.

“She was an immigrant who came to make a difference in this country, and she did that,” Muema said.

Nineteen people remained hospitalized Wednesday, Winik said.

The explosion was so powerful that it shook nearby houses for blocks in Bristol, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) northeast of Philadelphia. A wing of the facility housing the kitchen and cafeteria was almost entirely destroyed, leaving the roof caved in, sections of walls completely missing, and windows blown out. Debris littered the grounds.

Winik said the scale of casualties could have been much worse. Police and firefighters from the area flooded the scene, while staff from a hospital next door, nursing home employees, and neighbors rushed to help evacuate residents.

One person was resuscitated at a hospital, officials said. Rescuers found people trapped in stairways, elevator shafts, and under rubble. Some residents could not walk, and some were in wheelchairs or bed-bound.

A second explosion occurred while rescue efforts were underway.

Speech therapist Julia Szewczyk described the experience as terrifying and devastating. She was in a group therapy session in another part of the building when it began to shake. She and other staff rushed to evacuate residents across a street to safety.

“And then the next thing was to go inside and grab more people,” Szewczyk, 25, said. They dragged a bed-bound resident out into the cold, then Szewczyk ran back into the burning building twice to grab blankets from a supply closet. One coworker was trapped inside an elevator when the power went out, she added.

Outside, during the rescue, employees had been looking for Nduthu, Szewczyk recalled.

Federal agencies are set to assist in the investigation, but collapsed walls and roof must be cleared first, Winik said.

A utility crew was responding to reports of a gas odor when the explosion occurred, authorities said. The local gas utility, PECO, reported that the crew shut off natural gas and electric service to the facility but was unsure if utility equipment or gas was involved in the blast.

Musuline Watson, who said she was a certified nursing assistant at the facility, told WPVI-TV that staff smelled gas over the weekend but did not initially suspect a serious problem because there was no heat in that room. Other employees told Szewczyk they smelled gas earlier the day of the explosion.

The nursing home recently became affiliated with Ohio-based Saber Healthcare Group, which called the explosion “devastating.” Saber Healthcare stated that facility personnel promptly reported the gas odor to the local gas utility before the blast.

Willie Tye, who lives about a block away, said he was watching a basketball game when he heard a loud boom.

“I thought an airplane or something came and fell on my house,” he said.

Bitcoin Price Prediction for the End of 2025 Slightly Improves as Gold Sets Record, but It Is DeepSnitch AI the Crypto That Is Shining the Most

**Bitcoin Price Predictions and Investment Outlook for 2026: DeepSnitch AI, BTC, and PAXG Compared**

A few Bitcoin price predictions for the end of 2025 were rather bleak, with a recovery to $90k considered an optimistic scenario and a spike towards $100k seen as very unlikely. However, as the last full week of the year began, bullish winds started to gain momentum. Regardless of whether bulls or bears prevail at the year’s end, DeepSnitch AI has captured significant investor attention, thanks to its unique combination of cutting-edge AI technology and a massive market. Its presale has already raised over $875k, with many analysts calling it a better investment for 2026 than BTC or even gold.

**BTC Recovers $90k as Gold Sets New Record**

What some Bitcoin price predictions expected for year-end happened on December 22: Bitcoin recovered the $90k mark after losing it for over a week. On that same day, the so-called “digital gold” saw its physical counterpart reach a new all-time high above $4,400. Analysts noted that capital is still hedging macro uncertainty rather than leaning aggressively into risk, dampening enthusiasm for crypto. This trend fits the narrative for a year where gold has far outperformed almost every other investment class.

The next section presents a Bitcoin price forecast for 2026, alongside a comparison with DeepSnitch AI and the gold-pegged coin, PAXG.

## DeepSnitch AI vs. BTC vs. PAXG for 2026

### DeepSnitch AI (DSNT)

Bitcoin and gold are traditionally favored in financial markets for their roles as hedging instruments against inflation, diversification assets, and safe-haven mechanisms. These are primarily investment vehicles, even if gold also has practical uses.

DeepSnitch AI, however, represents a different proposition. It is a tangible product: a system of AI agents that transforms crypto data into actionable business intelligence. These agents—three of which are already operational—can, for example, extract a BTC market outlook directly from on-chain data and identify specific Bitcoin price trends. With the potential to revolutionize crypto investing for over half a billion crypto holders worldwide, DeepSnitch AI’s market opportunity is vast.

Currently, DeepSnitch AI is available at a low presale price of just **$0.02961**. Given its growth prospects for 2026, it could outperform even the wildest Bitcoin price predictions. Plus, buyers enjoy generous bonuses of 50% and 100% for DSNT purchases of at least $2,000 and $5,000 respectively, along with an attractive staking program (with over 20 million DSNT already staked). The result: DeepSnitch AI is positioned as a clear **100x moonshot**—but only for those who participate in the presale now.

### Bitcoin (BTC)

As of December 22, a baseline Bitcoin price prediction for December 31 places BTC in the **$92k–$94k** range. If the “Santa’s rally” phenomenon energizes financial markets, a recovery to $95k is plausible. Nevertheless, BTC has been outperformed by gold this year, unlike any other in its 17-year history.

The outlook for 2026 is more promising for Bitcoin. With gold at record heights, BTC will be starting the new year from relatively low levels. If institutional capital continues to flow into Digital Asset Treasuries, Bitcoin could reclaim the psychological $100k mark as early as January.

### PAX Gold (PAXG)

As a gold-pegged coin, PAXG has enjoyed an exceptional year. With gold delivering **68.5% YTD returns**, PAX Gold has outperformed the top 20 non-stablecoin cryptocurrencies, except WBT and XMR. Even with a bullish Bitcoin price prediction for 2026, gold-pegged coins like PAXG and XAUT are vital hedging tools for any diversified crypto portfolio, and they offer an easy way to gain exposure to the gold market.

## Conclusion

The year-end Bitcoin price prediction has improved, and gold has set a new record. Yet, DeepSnitch AI stands out as the top performer, thanks to its innovative AI technology and massive market potential. With its low presale price and generous bonuses, DeepSnitch AI offers a clear 100x moonshot opportunity. Exponential returns will be reserved for early investors who buy during the presale and utilize the 50% (Code: DSNTVIP50) and 100% (Code: DSNTVIP100) bonuses before they expire on January 1.

**Visit the official website to participate in the DeepSnitch AI presale now, and join the community on X and Telegram for the latest updates.**

## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

**Can BTC break its all-time high in 2026?**
Yes, it certainly can. Long-term Bitcoin price predictions suggest that BTC could continue gaining ground, similar to stock markets. However, the upside for BTC is noticeably more limited compared to DeepSnitch AI’s potential.

**Why is PAXG a practical way of investing in gold?**
PAXG can be easily traded on crypto exchanges. Given gold’s strong momentum, holding PAXG or XAUT in your portfolio is advisable, even if DeepSnitch AI is likely to deliver superior returns.

**What gives DeepSnitch AI a higher growth potential than BTC and gold?**
DeepSnitch AI creates real, concrete utility for hundreds of millions of users. With the project capturing even less than 1% of its potential market, DSNT’s price could rise more than 100x from its current presale level.

Justices rule against Trump, for now

**Supreme Court Blocks Trump Administration’s Deployment of National Guard Troops in Chicago**

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to allow the Trump administration to deploy National Guard troops in the Chicago area to support its immigration crackdown, marking a significant setback for President Donald Trump’s efforts to send troops to U.S. cities.

The justices declined the Republican administration’s emergency request to overturn a ruling by U.S. District Judge April Perry, who had blocked the deployment of troops. An appeals court had also refused to intervene. Notably, the Supreme Court took more than two months to make its decision.

Three justices—Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, and Neil Gorsuch—publicly dissented from the majority opinion. While the high court’s order is not a final ruling, it could influence other lawsuits challenging President Trump’s attempts to deploy the military in Democratic-led cities.

“At this preliminary stage, the Government has failed to identify a source of authority that would allow the military to execute the laws in Illinois,” the majority wrote.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh agreed with the decision to keep the Chicago deployment blocked but expressed that the president should have more latitude to deploy troops in potential future scenarios.

This outcome represents a rare Supreme Court setback for President Trump, who had won repeated victories in emergency appeals since resuming office in January. The conservative-dominated court has allowed Trump to ban transgender individuals from the military, claw back billions in congressionally approved federal spending, take aggressive actions against immigrants, and remove Senate-confirmed leaders of independent federal agencies.

Democratic Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker praised Tuesday’s decision as a victory for both the state and the nation.

“American cities, suburbs, and communities should not have to face masked federal agents asking for their papers, judging them for how they look or sound, and living in fear that the President can deploy the military to their streets,” he said.

In contrast, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson stated that the president had activated the National Guard to protect federal personnel and property from “violent rioters.”

“Nothing in today’s ruling detracts from that core agenda. The Administration will continue working day in and day out to safeguard the American public,” she added.

Justices Alito and Thomas, in their dissenting opinion, argued that the court had no basis to reject the administration’s claim that troops were necessary to enforce immigration laws. Justice Gorsuch also dissented, stating he would have narrowly sided with the government based on declarations from federal law enforcement officials.
