In a Republic, actually
‘A federal judge in Rhode Island on Monday ordered the Trump administration to comply with his order to unfreeze federal grants, after attorneys general for several Democratic states claimed the directive was not being fulfilled. In a short order, U.S. District Judge John McConnell directed the Trump administration to “immediately” end any federal funding pause until he decides whether to indefinitely block the freeze while litigation is ongoing.

The judge said specifically that the withheld funds that must be restored include those appropriated under two laws championed by former President Biden — the Inflation Reduction Act and Infrastructure Improvement and Jobs Act — and those intended for institutes and other agencies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

“The broad categorical and sweeping freeze of federal funds is, as the Court found, likely unconstitutional and has caused and continues to cause irreparable harm to a vast portion of this country,” McConnell wrote.’


Very good.

This is a victory for the rule of law.

Show us where appropriated funds MUST be spent? Those funds are authorized by Congress.

The executive branch agencies can and should only spend the money on what it was meant to be spent on. But that does not mean it must be spent or cannot be temporarily frozen? Nope. They can reduce spending if they want. It’s just never practiced, until now.

/—-/ No one likes being fleeced like a democRAT.
 
Also, if the President decides to change the mission of a Department or agency, or even to eliminate it, how can the agency be forced to spend the money when it doesn’t exist or its mission is changed?

/—-/ I agree, but Adam Shyt would use it as grounds to impeach, even though they are in the minority. It would be a distraction.

/—-/ democRATs have nothing. They are in a panic. All they can do is throw roadblocks by activists judges to slow him down.
Trump is prepared.

The Rule of Law is the rule of lawyers. It is nothing but a bossy buzz-phrase used by pompous blowhards to intimidate the people from asserting their will.
 
you notice how clueless jones NEVER comes on to defend the shit he throws up?......he shouldnt be allowed to post threads...
 
lol.

Judge orders that judge’s previous order must be followed.

If not, then another order directing that the prior order which ordered the first order must be complied with.

How about “no?”

How about we await the appeal?
