Is intent considered when determining whether detention is required? I mean, intent was all over their actions.

Yes and No - intent goes into state of mind, what USCA-DC did by remanding back to DC is it’s giving the DC Judge a chance to further expound on his reasoning(s) re dangerousness. Procedurally I know why the USCA-DC rationale to remand...because they held the District Court Judge failed to explain. In the long term this is actually a good thing - I know that sounds like a non-answer but it really is a decent answer

Super interesting, and way more thorough than Twitter sound bites, as usual, thank you again.

My pleasure- it total I think there are 19 separate court filings but I made a judgement call to start at the beginning and build to the recent USDA-DC order/memo -because it all interplays and I was trying to be aa thorough - yet concise as possible
