  80. <p>I used to think scaling was just about growing — more customers, more revenue, more markets. But over time, I realized something that no one tells you early on: You can&#8217;t scale a company unless you&#8217;re willing to scale yourself.</p>
  81. <p>In every company I&#8217;ve helped build — whether we were chasing our first million or pushing past a billion — I have encountered the same hidden truth: Growth doesn&#8217;t come in one clean line. It comes in thresholds. And at each one, the old rules break.</p>
  82. <p>That&#8217;s when it gets counterintuitive: The same instincts, habits and systems that fueled early momentum can quietly start creating drag. What once worked well can now start to work against you.</p>
  83. <p>This is the paradox most entrepreneurs miss. We assume scaling is about acceleration. In reality, it&#8217;s about reinvention. At every growth threshold, a company outgrows its own skin — and the founder has to grow just as fast.</p>
  84. <p><b>Related: The 4 Biggest Mistakes Companies Make When Scaling Their Business</b></p>
  85. <h2>From idea to execution: $0 to $1M</h2>
  86. <p>In the earliest phase, ideas are fluid and fragile. Nothing is locked down — not your product, not your market and definitely not your brand. What <i>is</i> real at this stage is your team. Who is in the trenches with you? Who is building alongside you when there is no revenue, no guarantee and no roadmap?</p>
  87. <p>When I founded BrightPlan, I was intentional about assembling a core team that brought strengths I didn&#8217;t possess myself. I leaned heavily on SaaS veterans and product minds who could work fast and think clearly under pressure. In a zero-to-one stage, the team <i>is</i> the strategy.</p>
  88. <p>Forget perfection. Be ready to fail fast and adapt rapidly. What you need at this point is momentum. And if your early team can&#8217;t pivot, stretch and challenge each other constructively, it won&#8217;t matter how promising the product is — you&#8217;ll stall before takeoff.</p>
  89. <h2>From product-market fit to strategic focus: $1M to $10M</h2>
  90. <p>If the first threshold is about survival, the second is about alignment. You&#8217;ve got traction. Customers are buying. Investors start to show interest. And that&#8217;s exactly when the next set of dangers creeps in.</p>
  91. <p>This is where capital enters the equation — and where I&#8217;ve seen more missteps than almost any other phase. Founders, eager to keep the momentum going, take the first term sheet without pausing to understand its implications. Then one day, they wake up with a partner whose goals, expectations or control terms create more friction than fuel.</p>
  92. <p>We avoided that trap by being deliberate. We prioritized investor fit over speed, looking for partners who brought not only capital but context — people who could pressure test our thinking, open doors and stay in the game when it got hard. Not just capital providers, but true partners.</p>
  93. <p>At this stage, everything tightens: your positioning, your hiring, your decision-making. What worked up to the $1M growth point can now start to introduce drag. To keep growing, you don&#8217;t just need focus — you need the discipline to let go of good ideas and even people in service of great ones.</p>
  94. <p><b>Related: How to Navigate to the Next Phase of Your Business — 3 Tips as You Scale</b></p>
  95. <h2>From hustler to operator: $10M to $100M</h2>
  96. <p>This is the turning point. The company isn&#8217;t a startup anymore, but it&#8217;s also not yet an enterprise. You&#8217;re growing, but growth alone is no longer the victory. The question becomes: Can you scale <i>how</i> you work, not just <i>what</i> you deliver?</p>
  97. <p>This was the phase where I had to evolve the most as a leader. I was no longer the default decision-maker in every room, and that was by design. We brought in seasoned operators to own product, operations and finance. People who had built through scale and had the playbooks — and the hard-earned experience — to prove it.</p>
  98. <p>Stepping back doesn&#8217;t mean stepping away. It means building an organization that can function without you in the center. Most companies stall here not because they run out of vision, but because they try to scale chaos. You can&#8217;t power through with hustle anymore. At this stage, structure becomes your new advantage.</p>
  99. <p>And then there&#8217;s the human side. You realize that some of the people who were perfect for the $1M sprint may not be right for the $50M structure. Letting go of someone who&#8217;s been with you since day one, someone who helped build the plane while it was flying — that&#8217;s not just a tough call. That&#8217;s a gut-wrenching moment. But leadership means being honest about whether loyalty is becoming a liability, for them and for the company.</p>
  100. <h2>From scaling up to rebuilding for scale: $100M+</h2>
  101. <p>Crossing into nine figures forces another identity shift. You&#8217;re no longer a fast-growing startup. You&#8217;re a complex organization with global visibility and operational gravity. And what got you to this point will absolutely break if you try to run it the same way.</p>
  102. <p>At BrightPlan, we anticipated this. We automated and outsourced anything that wasn&#8217;t core to our differentiation — compliance, finance, legal workflows — so we could stay lean and responsive as complexity increased. That adaptability wasn&#8217;t luck. It was engineered.</p>
  103. <p>But this phase isn&#8217;t just technical — it&#8217;s personal. You start confronting the invisible weight of legacy. That reporting structure you created three years ago? It&#8217;s now a bottleneck. That product flow you handcrafted with pride? It&#8217;s become a liability. You built for where you were, but now you&#8217;re somewhere else.</p>
  104. <p>This is where reinvention stops being optional. And just like before, you&#8217;re called to let go — of systems, assumptions, even parts of your own role. Scaling this phase is less about adding and more about clarifying what no longer belongs.</p>
  105. <h2>Leading through the thresholds</h2>
  106. <p>Every phase of growth is a shift in identity — for the company and for the founder. Early on, you&#8217;re the driver and visionary of everything. Then, you&#8217;re the strategic decider. Then, the systems builder. And eventually, the cultural architect who must future-proof the business without dulling its edge.</p>
  107. <p>What links all of these roles? The willingness to evolve before the business forces you to. To perpetually disrupt or stand to be disrupted. That&#8217;s the real way to unlock success.</p>
  108. <p>Technology, especially AI, only sharpens this need. It accelerates timelines, changes how we work and redefines scale itself. But it doesn&#8217;t erase the transitions. You still need adaptable architecture. You still need a team that can scale with integrity. And you still need the courage to make hard calls at every turn.</p>
  109. <p><b>Related: Scale Your Leadership Skills as You Scale Your Company</b></p>
  110. <h2>Growth is a series of thresholds, not a straight line</h2>
  111. <p>The biggest myth in entrepreneurship is that scaling is a linear process. It&#8217;s not. It&#8217;s a staircase of reinvention. And the companies that make it to the top aren&#8217;t the ones who go fastest. They&#8217;re the ones that know when it&#8217;s time to stop, rebuild and then leap.</p>
  112. <p>I&#8217;ve come to believe that the most scalable companies are the ones whose leaders evolve just ahead of the business, not behind it. If you can see the next threshold coming — and start becoming the leader that phase will require — you&#8217;ve already won half the battle.</p>
  113. <p>Because in the end, scale doesn&#8217;t reward the bold.</p>
  114. <p>It rewards the agile.</p>

  204. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph"><b>CLIMATEWIRE |</b> When the McBride wildfire erupted in New Mexico three years ago, David Merritt had a math problem.</p>
  205. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">The fire was closing in on a Lincoln County hospital with 11 admitted patients, but the ambulance drivers who would normally evacuate those patients were busy fighting the blaze. High winds ruled out air evacuations. There were also only two ways out of the town of Ruidoso, and the way leading to the next-nearest hospital was in the evacuation zone.</p>
  206. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">Merritt, who is a federal health care preparedness coordinator, needed to not only find drivers — but ones who could move the patients an hour away. And he did, by calling in people and resources throughout the state.</p>

  211. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">But the next time there&#8217;s a fire, Merritt might not be there to help.</p>
  212. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">President Donald Trump has asked Congress to eliminate funding for the Department of Health and Human Services’ Hospital Preparedness Program, which fully funds Merritt’s salary.</p>
  213. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">That could halt work Merritt is doing this year to ensure local officials have a plan to prevent measles from spreading in evacuation shelters used during wildfires.</p>
  214. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“My whole job is to figure out all the things that are going to go wrong and figure out how to cooperatively work together to solve those problems, but I may not be here,” said Merritt. “If HPP goes away, none of that work is done now.”</p>
  215. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">The Hospital Preparedness Program isn’t just for hospitals. Created after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the program also funds training for emergency managers and emergency responders to make sure every aspect of a region’s health care system has a plan for and is able to communicate during disasters, whether they are pandemics, cyberattacks, mass shootings, wildfires or hurricanes.</p>
  216. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">The program has paid for unified communications systems between hospitals and emergency responders, and chemical decontamination supplies, too. It also provides the salary for regional coordinators throughout the United States to help run trainings and respond to events.</p>
  217. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">Trump’s fiscal 2026 budget request to Congress asks lawmakers to zero out all $240 million in funding for the program, which is part of HHS’ Administration for Preparedness and Response. The <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Fiscal-Year-2026-Discretionary-Budget-Request.pdf">budget justifies the request</a> by saying the HPP “has been wasteful and unfocused.”</p>
  218. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“This proposal remedies those flaws by allowing States and Territories to properly scope and fund hospital preparedness,” it says. HHS referred questions asking for more details on those &#8220;flaws&#8221; to the Office of Management and Budget, which did not respond to POLITICO&#8217;s E&amp;E News by press time.</p>
  219. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">Coordinators who are funded by for the program say it provides critical support to states and territories.</p>
  220. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“You’re taking down a system that brings multiple agencies together beforehand to respond to disasters, you’re cutting down a lot of networking and a lot of preparedness, a lot of training and a lot of resources that we get beforehand to allow us to be able to respond proactively to disasters,” said T.L. Davis, who was the readiness and response coordinator for the Northeast Arkansas Preparedness and Emergency Response Systems until 2022.</p>
  221. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">In June 2021, his office jumped into action when multiple tornadoes ripped through Northeast Arkansas, flattening not one but two nursing homes. Local emergency responders were already swamped with calls, so Davis’ coalition sent out an Ambubus, a vehicle that looks like a school bus but is equipped like an ambulance to treat multiple injured people. The Ambubus, which had been purchased with HPP funds, helped evacuate and care for more than 100 patients from the nursing homes.</p>
  222. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“If we had not had that HPP funding, we wouldn’t have been able to do that, the response times would have been much longer and we could have had casualties,” Davis said.</p>
  223. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">Tom Cotter founded the Health Response Alliance, a nonprofit that advocates resilience in health care systems. He said HPP and the coordinator positions it funds are particularly invaluable in mass-casualty medical events.</p>
  224. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“When something happens, you want the system to be able to work together as a whole rather than have disjointed units working on their own in a silo,” Cotter said. “The Hospital Preparedness Program helps make that happen.”</p>
  225. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">That’s what happens in North Carolina during hurricanes. During both Hurricanes Florence and Helene, the Duke Healthcare Preparedness Coalition, funded by HPP, was tasked with running specialty shelters for patients with unique medical needs, like those who require at-home dialysis or ventilators.</p>
  226. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“These are people who need 24-hour care, and if we didn’t have these shelters, they would have to go to hospitals during disasters when you want to keep the load out of hospitals,” said J. David Marsee, the health care preparedness coordinator for the coalition. “When we show up, we are working closely with the local agencies to help take that load off.”</p>
  227. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">During disasters, Marsee’s coalition relies heavily on volunteer staff from Duke University and its health care system. The university is now “working through different alternatives” for what could happen if the HPP is defunded, he said.</p>
  228. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“We are not sure how well prepared for the next disaster we may be,” Marsee said.</p>
  229. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">Florida Hospital Association President Mary Mayhew said the HPP has been critical to helping train health care groups in her state around hurricane-related evacuations. That was particularly true last fall during Hurricane Michael, when more than 300 health care facilities, including hospitals and nursing homes, had to be evacuated in advance of a storm predicted to cover a large swath of the state.</p>
  230. <p class="" data-block="sciam/paragraph">“We keep getting tested over and over again with different and more complex challenges and this work is foundational to supporting all of the efforts that occur in the midst of a disaster response,” she said.</p>

  294. <p>The Trump administration has ended a climate research program hosted at the University of Washington that helps communities in the Northwest adapt to extreme heat, drought and other threats from climate change.</p>
  295. <p>The UW’s Climate Impacts Group, which relies on federal support and hosts the program, said in a Thursday statement that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ended its grant award for the research in a Monday letter.</p>
  296. <p>The program, called the <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://cig.uw.edu/our-programs/the-northwest-climate-resilience-collaborative/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" class="content-link external">Northwest Climate Resilience Collaborative</a>, has developed a plan to reduce illness and <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://cig.uw.edu/projects/in-the-hot-seat-saving-lives-from-extreme-heat-in-washington-state/" target="_blank" class="content-link external">save lives in extreme heat</a> in the wake of the 2021 heat dome, has built an air-quality dashboard to mitigate the health impacts of wildfire smoke and has expanded drinking-water testing and filtration in rural Oregon, among other things.</p>
  297. <p>The Climate Impacts Group has hosted the program since 2021 and funding was set to run through August 2026.</p>
  298. <p>NOAA was a specific target in Project 2025, a conservative blueprint for the second Trump administration. The document called the agency “one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry.”</p>
  299. <p>“What seems so strange to me,” said Jason Vogel, deputy director of the Climate Impacts Group and co-director of the Northwest Climate Resilience Collaborative, “is that what initially appeared to be an attack on climate science — that was somewhat predictable, and it’s always been a bit of a political issue — is becoming an attack on vulnerable communities.”</p>
  300. <p>In the Northwest, <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://cig.uw.edu/projects/in-the-hot-seat-saving-lives-from-extreme-heat-in-washington-state/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" class="content-link external">hundreds of people</a> have died in extreme heat. Communities have been razed in fires or forced to relocate due to rising tides. Fishers are <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/news/nov22/stressed-out.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" class="content-link external">hoisting up pots of dead crab</a> amid waves of low oxygen and other marine stressors.</p>
  301. <p>Scientists from the Climate Impacts Group raised alarm last month about the potential loss of the collaborative and a second federal climate program run from the university campus. </p>
  302. <p>The proposed budget cuts they were concerned about would have needed congressional approval. Instead, the end of the program came in the form of the letter.</p>
  303. <p>The May 5 letter from the acting director of NOAA’s Grants Management Division states the program funding was axed as “part of efforts to streamline and reduce the cost and size of the Federal Government.”</p>
  304. <p>The collaborative has worked alongside coastal tribes as they respond to sea level rise, and supported Idaho farmers facing drought and land-use changes. It developed an assessment to identify the barriers for tribal nations seeking to adapt to climate change, and has been working with local governments and organizations on how to better protect farmworkers and other residents from extreme heat and wildfire smoke.</p>
  305. <p>The collaborative works with governments and organizations that, unlike big cities or counties, might not otherwise have the staff or funding to map out these impacts and potential solutions on their own.</p>
  306. <p>“We don’t measure our progress in terms of scientific papers published. We don’t measure our progress in terms of profit indicators. We are there to make a difference on the ground in communities,” Vogel said. “And that fundamentally comes down to saving lives and saving livelihoods.”</p>
  307. <p>The collaborative represents about 25% of the total work at the UW’s Climate Impacts Group.</p>

  347. <p>Critics bristled to the comment, accusing Oz of blaming patients for illness while ignoring health determinants like affordability, access and socioeconomic barriers.</p>

  349. <p>Others pointed to recent GOP-led policies—such as proposed cuts to Medicare and Medicaid and tariffs on prescription drugs—as counterproductive and hypocritical. &#8220;Cutting Medicare, Medicaid, and putting tariffs on prescription drugs hardly makes us healthier,&#8221; <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" href="https://x.com/DenisonBarbs/status/1920886855840457137" target="_blank">wrote</a> one. &#8220;In fact, I would say that is unpatriotic.&#8221;</p>

  416. <p>After decades in prison for the brutal murders of their parents, the waiting is nearly over for brothers Erik and Lyle Menendez in their bid for freedom.</p>
  417. <p>Following disagreements between the current and former Los Angeles County district attorney and a series of legal fits and starts delayed the matter in recent months, L.A. County Superior Court Judge Michael Jesic ruled Friday that the brothers’ resentencing hearing can go forward Tuesday. The hearing is expected to last two days at the Van Nuys Courthouse. </p>
  418. <p>The brothers were convicted of murder with special circumstances in the 1989 shotgun slayings of their parents, Jose and Kitty, at the family’s Beverly Hills home.</p>
  419. <p>Erik, then 18, confessed to the killings in a conversation with his therapist and the two were later sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. While the brothers claimed Jose sexually abused them and was a threat to their lives, prosecutors contended they killed their parents to get early access to their multimillion-dollar inheritance. </p>
  420. <p>The brothers have been hoping for their day in court since October, when then-Dist. Atty. George Gascón asked a judge to make them eligible for parole. Resentencing could trigger their eligibility for parole through the state’s youthful offender law since they were under 26 at the time of the murders. </p>
  421. <p>Gascón cited the brothers’ work creating rehabilitation programs in prison, their low-risk assessments from corrections officials and potential new evidence about their father’s alleged abusive behavior as reasons they should be set free. </p>
  422. <p>But after Dist. Atty. Nathan Hochman trounced Gascón in November, he vowed to re-examine the case. In March, he said he would not support resentencing, contending the brothers had not taken proper “insight” into their crimes and were still lying about being afraid their parents might kill them to cover up Jose’s alleged abuse. </p>
  423. <p>Hochman previously asked Jesic to disregard Gascón’s motion and only consider filings submitted under his administration in the case, but the judge rejected that bid last month, saying there “was nothing really new” in those filings. </p>
  424. <p>Hochman, who appeared on the record in court instead of the line prosecutors assigned to the case, again asked Jesic to throw out Gascón’s petition Friday. This time, he insisted information contained in a risk-assessment report generated by the parole board under the direction of Gov. Gavin Newsom — who is separately considering a request for clemency from the brothers — would have been critical for Gascón to review. </p>
  425. <p>Jesic again denied Hochman’s request. </p>
  426. <p>A coalition of relatives supporting Erik and Lyle’s release have been in dispute with Hochman over the case in recent weeks, some of which served as the basis of a motion filed last month by defense attorney Mark Geragos seeking to disqualify Hochman and his prosecutors. </p>
  427. <p>The family has accused Hochman of holding a bias against the brothers and acting “hostile, dismissive and patronizing” toward them during a meeting earlier this year. Geragos also contends Hochman created a conflict by hiring Kathy Cady — a former prosecutor and victims rights attorney who previously represented the lone Menendez relative opposed to their release — as the director of his bureau of victims services. Hochman has maintained Cady is “walled off” from the case. </p>
  428. <p>The family has also questioned Hochman’s decision to transfer the two prosecutors who filed the initial motion to resentence the brothers. The attorneys, Nancy Theberge and Brock Lunsford, have sued Hochman for retaliation. </p>
  429. <p>Hochman has denied all allegations of bias and said he is simply following the law. </p>
  430. <p>Geragos withdrew his motion to disqualify on Friday, saying only he had “rethought” his position. </p>

  455. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">The prime minister has said there are &#8220;ongoing discussions&#8221; with the United States over digital services, following the deal struck with President Trump.</p>
  456. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">The UK&#8217;s Digital Services Tax (DST) &#8211; a 2% levy which raises about £800m a year mainly from US tech companies &#8211; was widely thought to be part of trade talks with the US.</p>
  457. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">On Thursday, the government announced the DST remains &#8220;undisturbed and unchanged&#8221; as part of the US-UK deal slashing tariffs imposed by President Trump on cars and metals.</p>
  458. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">Asked if he could guarantee that there would not be any changes to the DST, Sir Keir Starmer said: &#8220;On digital services, there are ongoing discussions and various other aspects of the deal.&#8221;</p>
  459. </div>
  460. <div data-component="text-block">
  461. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">Speaking to broadcasters on board HMS St Albans during a visit to Norway, Sir Keir said the deal reached with the US this week &#8220;predominantly focused on steel and aluminium and reducing those tariffs on car manufacturing and reducing the tariffs there&#8221;.</p>
  462. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">&#8220;On digital services, there are ongoing discussions, obviously, on other aspects of the deal, but the important thing to focus on yesterday is the sectors that are now protected that the day before yesterday were very exposed,&#8221; he added.</p>
  463. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">While the new deal offers some relief to industries affected by the tariffs announced by President Trump, the government is continuing to work on a wider UK-US trade agreement.</p>
  464. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">One point of tension has been the DST, which affects large multinational enterprises who run social media services, online search engines or an online marketplace for UK consumers.</p>
  465. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">It is a 2% tax on companies with revenues of more than £500m worldwide and £25m in the UK, affecting global tech giants like Amazon and Meta.</p>
  466. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">It was introduced by the previous Conservative government in 2020.</p>
  467. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">President Trump has made clear his distaste for what he sees as unfair taxes targeting American firms.</p>
  468. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">Previously, Chancellor Rachel Reeves has said the government had to &#8220;get the balance right&#8221; on negotiating with the US.</p>
  469. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">Speaking on BBC One&#8217;s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg she said it was the &#8220;right thing that companies who operate in the UK pay their taxes in the UK, and the US government and tech companies understand as well, but we are having discussions with the US at the moment. I want to preserve free and open trade.&#8221;</p>
  470. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">Potential changes to the DST have been criticised by the Liberal Democrats, who have previously said Labour is &#8220;at risk of losing its moral compass&#8221; if it cuts the tax.</p>
  471. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">But on Thursday, Trade Minister Douglas Alexander told MPs the government had &#8220;listened carefully&#8221; to concerns about weakening online harm protections in trade talks.</p>
  472. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">He added the government had &#8220;worked hard to advance the UK&#8217;s national interest in the agreement that is reached&#8221;.</p>
  473. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">Asked about the deal on Friday, Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said the deal was &#8220;better than nothing but it&#8217;s not much&#8221;.</p>
  474. <p class="sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS">&#8220;One of the things that concerns me is that we will probably now not get a comprehensive free trade agreement. It looks like Labour has settled,&#8221; she said.</p>

  500. <p data-qa="Component-Component" class="e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1">District Judge William Sessions during a hearing in Burlington, Vermont, granted bail to Rumeysa Ozturk, who is at the centre of one of the highest-profile cases to emerge from Republican US President Donald Trump’s campaign to deport pro-Palestinian activists on American campuses.</p>
  501. <p data-qa="Component-Component" class="e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1">The judge said Ozturk had raised a substantial claim that the sole reason she was being detained was “simply and purely the expression that she made or shared in the op-ed in violation of her First Amendment rights”.</p>
  502. <p data-qa="Component-Component" class="e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1">“Her continued detention potentially chills the speech of the millions and millions of individuals in this country who are not citizens,” Sessions said.</p>
  503. <p data-qa="Component-Component" class="e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1">“Any one of them may now avoid exercising their First Amendment rights for fear of being whisked away to a detention centre.”</p>
