Judge Bennett: Does the US really believe that the court has *no* role in deciding whether conditions for federalizing National Guard are met, or just a lot of deference?

Judge Bennett: Is it your view that if the president simply invokes the statute, gives no reasons, provides no support, and there is nothing that appears to justify it, the court still has no role? No role at all, even with no reasons, no facts?
DOJ: That is correct. Unreviewable.
