Summary
A federal judge in Rhode Island ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze federal funding, accusing it of violating a previous court ruling.
The lawsuit, filed by 22 states and D.C., argues the freeze is unconstitutional and causing harm. Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have suggested defying court orders.
The administration appealed the ruling, while legal experts warn officials like the Treasury Secretary could face contempt charges if they ignore it.
The case tests executive power limits and judicial authority.
I’m sure he’ll listen this time judge.
I’m actually really hoping he doesn’t. It’s better we get this over with sooner than later. Piss the courts and the legislature off before he has gathered enough of a foothold
This is really the ideal path. Fracture fast, begin the healing.
Also if there is going to be a war, I’d rather it be in my mid 30s than late. And before my niece and nephews are old enough to be in school and remember it.
Also while some media still exists that isn’t fully owned by them
Speed run the end of democracy! LFG!
The democracy part was already over when he ignored Congress, this is just accelerating the time period from no longer being a republic to the deciding moments of what will become.
It is literally in their playbook, ignore court orders. Dark Gothic MAGA is terrifying
This video is prophetic and I highly encourage everyone to watch it. It sounds like a conspiracy theory except we see virtually all of it happening in front of our own eyes right now.
I know right? Usually felons don’t listen to the legal system.
Especially when they have not one but 34 felony convictions.
