It was supposed to be the department of jangling keys, but then they let it make actual firing decisions without knowing how the institutions worked.
He's not a US citizen, but he had a court order not to deport from during the previous Trump administration.
No, it's good that he's following the law. Unlike those criminals that are trying to manipulate him like Stephen Miller.

New kind of medical tourism just dropped. CVS is gonna make bank at their new location at the foot of the Gordie Howe Bridge.

But we know this because we have lots of people who have observed lizard behavior, not because The Lizard Farm, Inc has hyped up how alive and ensouled their lizards arev in a bid to get ever more VC funding.
Maybe I'm too pessimistic about this tech and my obsolete meat sack will get tossed to the time-traveling torture robot. But I think it's more likely that we have a money grabbing hype train in the tradition of the Mechanical Turk or Theranos than it is that we have created a new lifeform by feeding every extant piece of writing that isn't nailed down (and some that are) to the sand we've forced to do math.
In a banana republic, what's a president but a local representative of the company?
Well, the only claim of this self preservation (that I've seen) is this article, which is on a website I'm unfamiliar with (which I often interpret as 'more likely to be a creative writing exercise than the average news site') and its only citation is a company that has a vested interest in making us believe the tech is better than it may actually be.
It's a per curiam decision, we don't get to know.
We do get to know that Coney Barrett recused herself, which is what allowed an even split (and by extension the upholding of the lower court's decision).
The owls are not what they seem. Sometimes they're bears.
The computer that will tell you 'strawberry' only had two R's in it or that no country in Africa starts with k, not even Kenya probably drew it.
