Update: He blocked the firings also. Over 65,000 federal workers had already accepted the offer that was intended to allow them to resign with a buyout. The legal action also involves a separate case where Judge Amy Berman Jackson blocked the firing of ethics watchdog Hampton Dellinger, a partisan for the hard left.
Another corrupt Obama judge, John McConnell of Rhode Island, has come up with a ruling to tell the president of the United States what to do as Democrats threaten Trump online if he continues to violate judicial orders.
He’s threatening President Trump with arrest. That would be interesting.
After complaints from the Attorneys General of 22 blue states and D.C. who brought the lawsuit, the Obama judge said Monday that the Trump administration has not complied with an earlier order that blocked its freeze on federal assistance. He ordered agencies to immediately restore any paused or withheld dollars during continuing legal proceedings.
This is a random federal judge telling the president and his staff what to do. It’s lawfare, and it needs to be stopped. Perhaps the President can fire federal judges.
The move from U.S. District Judge John McConnell comes in a case brought by a group of 22 states and the District of Columbia challenging the legality of a memo based on President Trump’s executive orders ordering temporary pause of grants, loans, or federal assistance programs.
Before the puppet president Joe Biden left office, he assigned hundreds of millions of dollars so as to leave nothing for President Trump and the American people.
While the budget office rescinded the memo, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said only its directive was being unwound, and the broader funding freeze would remain in effect.
McConnell had issued a temporary restraining order demanding all funds be released. The blue states went back to the judge to say Donald Trump wasn’t obeying. Now, we are at a standstill.
What happens is that those who want the government corruption & waste to continue will shop around the country for an activist judge to do their bidding.
It is an undemocratic and unconstitutional power grab by a tiny group of radical leftists! https://t.co/h3oLocEuoB

The judge needs to be arrested for treason and held with no bail. He needs to be put in the prison where the patriotic demonstrators infiltrated by federal agents who started a riot on January 6 were held. No charges should be filed for a couple of years. We are… Read more »
What happened with the requirement of “standing” in these cases. Where have the plaintiffs shown their standing in regards to claim of harm. These cases go against the Unitary Executive theory whereas the “vesting clause” is the predicate.
Their standing is that they are agents of corruption. Their vesting is that they are are up to their necks in it.
I should have read the EO because it is not a “new agency”. Sec. 3. DOGE Structure. (a) Reorganization and Renaming of the United States Digital Service.

Let’s not forget current government spending ends in March. All these TRO’s will essentially be moot at that time.
Then they shut the government down and/or find some other system of lawfare. There is about $300 million involved now, going to leftists. Trump was hoping to use it. These people are despicable.
The more I think about this, there’s nothing the judge can do. He and the others can demand all they’d like, but it will go nowhere. They have no more plays to run. It’s game over for the Left.
