Solicitor General Donald B. Verrilli having another terrible day in the Supreme Court.
Its pretty hard when you have to defend the indefensible.

I'm pleasantly surprised by Sotomayor. She's asking very pointed questions.

Sotomayor, Roberts and Alito all expressed confusion at the government's position that federal statute specifically requires the DHS to respond to state requests for immigration status, but the government's position seems to be that the states can't ask.

They might just uphold AZ's statute.
