Unlawful suspension of USAID funding probably violated Constitution, judge says

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘A U.S. district judge ruled Monday that the Trump administration must pay nearly $2 billion in foreign assistance owed to its humanitarian partners around the world, saying the administration probably violated separation of powers by “unlawfully impounding” the congressionally appropriated money.

U.S. District Judge Amir H. Ali in a ruling blocked the administration from withholding payment of foreign aid funds authorized by Congress, which has caused delays in lifesaving food and medicine in impoverished areas around the world. But he found that the administration could move forward with an effort to cancel future aid contracts.

More broadly, Ali’s ruling was also a forceful rebuke of President Donald Trump’s sweeping and controversial assertion that he has the power to determine how funds allocated by Congress are spent in one of its first court tests.

“The Executive not only claims his constitutional authority to determine how to spend appropriated funds, but usurps Congress’s exclusive authority to dictate whether the funds should be spent in the first place,” Ali wrote. “In advancing this position, Defendants offer an unbridled view of Executive power that the Supreme Court has consistently rejected — a view that flouts multiple statutes whose constitutionality is not in question.”’

The executive has contempt for the rule of law and Constitution and is unfit to be president.

"Unlawful" is the opinion of a political hack moonbat activist "judge", and the deranged crackpot OP.

The president has a constitutional obligation to ensure that the American Taxpayers money is not being stolen.

 

[Rambunctious]

These judges are just slowing down progress... they know their rulings are bullshit... and the supreme court needs to get a spine and they need to read the constitution.....

The "old bills" are going to pure fucking graft and thievery.

It is, however, somewhat refreshing to watch you shitlibs come out foursquare on the side of graft and thievery.

Why are liberal judges trying so hard to tank our country? The people see what these radical judges are doing.

Why do these socialists/communist have no issue on how their tax dollars are misspent?
Maybe they aren't even Americans?

Another district judge being prepared to be launched!

 

[Rogue AI]

If this judge is wrong, which is likely, how will this be made right for the taxpayers? This ruling should be ignored until this issue is properly addressed, to include the whole appeals system.
