What youβre saying is the federal government is ignoring the temporary restraining order that was issued yesterday?
Wonder whoβs going to actually do anything about this considering thereβs no real mechanism in place to stop this now that the federal government is ignoring the courts openly

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whateverβs in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Back in March, Schumer said he supported the CR because he warned that a shutdown would allow Vought and DOGE and Trump to slash even more of the federal workforce. But we saw that Trump and Elon and Vought did that anyway. And the courts have essentially allowed Trump to do it

βI donβt think the Democrats want to shut down either,β Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho), a senior appropriator, told Bloomberg Government. βTheir concern right now, and itβs a legitimate concern, is that, how can we agree to any deal when our OMB director will just impound the funds and say weβre not going to spend them there?β
βIf youβre a Democrat β even just like a mainstream Democrat β your predisposition might be to help negotiate with Republicans on a funding mechanism,β said Rep. Steve Womack, a senior GOP appropriator. βWhy would you do that if you know that whatever you negotiate is going to be subject to the knife pulled out by Russ Vought?β
Two senior Republican appropriators agree it doesn't make any sense for Democrats to agree to a government funding deal unless Trump actually adheres to the deal.
The Democratic alternative CR had language that would address this, but the White House came out strongly against.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

When Minnesota Democratic State Representative Melissa Hortman was murdered in her home by a gun toting MAGA maniac less than 90 days ago they said nothing. Trump even skipped her funeral and chose to play golf instead. He had the chance to condemn political violent and did not.
