      The Justice Department had asked the Supreme Court to stay the appeals court order earlier this month, saying the executive branch would suffer irreparable harm if Congress saw the evidence. nytimes.com/2020/05/07/us/politics/mueller-supreme-court.html

        I should have said that CJ Roberts handled the application for the stay but -- as the order notes -- he referred it to the full court.
