    A federal judge in Washington, DC, indefinitely blocked the Trump administration from freezing federal grants and loans, criticizing the move to turn off funding days after it took power as “irrational” and “imprudent” as she ruled they were likely unlawful.

    We sent a notice of intent to sue the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for illegally expediting 700 pending permit to fill or destroy wetlands across the U.S.

    The permits have been fast-tracked under the executive order declaring a national energy emergency. This action violates the Clean Water Act and the Endangered Species Act.

    BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨

    Chief Justice John Roberts on Wednesday paused a court-imposed midnight deadline that would have required the Trump administration to spend $2 billion in frozen foreign aid, a goal that the government has claimed it is unable to meet.

    A federal judge just ordered the Office of Personnel Management to rescind Trump admin orders that initiated the mass firing of probationary government workers — ruling that the terminations were probably illegal.

    Above the law.

    Trump administration to judge: You can't force an agency director to testify. That violates separtion of powers and is an improper intrusion on the executive branch.

    Judge: Yeah .... no. He shows up Thursday for deposition/cross examination. By the way, can you spell s-a-n-c-t-i-o-n-s?

    HOOBOY!! COURT SPANKS TRUMP OVER USAID PAYMENTS!  ISSUES INJUNCTION AND ORDERS THAT 1200 PAYMENTS THAT ARE OUTSTANDING FOR WORK ALREADY COMPLETED MUST BE PAID AT A RATE OF AT LEAST 300 PAYMENTS PER DAY.

    An injunction is more serious than a TRO, and is the next step that needs to happen. When an injunction contains such highly specific requirements, it's more serious still, as it is *very* easy to tell whether the defendant is complying... or not. 1/4

    ICYMI: Today a federal judge granted a temporary restraining order, blocking Trump from “cutting hundreds of millions of dollars for teacher training, finding that cuts are already affecting training programs aimed at addressing a nationwide teacher shortage.”

    The Trump Administration appealed late today.

    A federal judge on Wednesday will consider the fate of more than 20,000 probationary government employees fired by the Trump administration.

    During a hearing in U.S. District Court in Maryland, Judge James Bredar will consider issuing a temporary restraining order that would block future firings and reinstate the probationary employees who have already been terminated.

    Can't believe this isn't getting more traction. Trump issued an executive order essentially putting huge financial liabilities on anyone suing the government in order to deter them. It's essentially a fascistic measure to stop challenges to his  illegal bullshit.

    Why is anyone surprised? There’s more outrage that Teslas are being spray painted with Cryon than the fact that a green card holder is currently being detained for exercising their 1st amendment rights because Israel. Who would sue the US Government? Why certainly not a white Christian male and their breeders. Only “the other” sues the government.

    Not only did Defense Secretary Pete "hic" Hegseth cherry pick research to back up his transgender ban, the DOJ's own lawyers didn't actually read any of the cited studies before going into court to defend the order. Just really remarkable levels of incompetence and lying.
