I think we can accurately say much of the trump agenda is on pause. This is worse.

Judge Rules the White House Failed to Comply With Court Order


A federal judge on Monday said the White House has defied his order to release billions of dollars in federal grants, marking the first time a judge has expressly declared that the Trump White House was disobeying a judicial mandate.

The ruling by Judge John J. McConnell Jr. in Rhode Island federal court ordered Trump administration officials to comply with what he called “the plain text” of an edict he issued last month.

Judge McConnell’s ruling marked a step toward what could quickly evolve into a high-stakes showdown between the executive and judicial branches, a day after a social media post by Vice President JD Vance claimed that “judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power,” elevating the chance that the White House could provoke a constitutional crisis.

Already, more than 40 lawsuits have been filed against the Trump administration, challenging Mr. Trump’s brazen moves that have included revoking birthright citizenship and giving Elon Musk’s teams access to sensitive Treasury Department payment systems. Judges have already ruled that many of these executive actions may violate existing statutes.


Violating existing statutes in pursuit of enacting various EO's is one thing. Violating a recently issued court order is another kind of animal.

The most litigious prez ever to occupy the WH, resulting from the personal commission of crimes, is on course to have his admin spend much of its time defending its actions against lawsuits and judicial orders. Which, frankly, is going just as some of us expected.
The idiots will cheer for this.

We just went through four years of Biden making unlawful EO's and, even when struck down by the Supreme Court, he just defied what the Court decided.
 
It's the first time since President Donald Trump's second inauguration that a federal judge has accused his administration of defying a court order.
For once an accusation against Trump is correct.

I hope he defies it until the USSC overturns it.

How would this little judge enforce this order?
