The Trump administration must halt much of its dramatic downsizing of the federal workforce, a California judge ordered Friday.
Judge Susan Illston in San Francisco issued the emergency order in a lawsuit filed last week by labor unions and cities, one of multiple legal challenges to Republican President Donald Trump’s efforts to shrink the size of a federal government he calls bloated and expensive.
“The Court holds the President likely must request Congressional cooperation to order the changes he seeks, and thus issues a temporary restraining order to pause large-scale reductions in force in the meantime,” Illston wrote in her order.
Judge better watch her back for FBI agents and the MAGA cult members. Which is sad to say, really.
Sure, I want this to be good news, but there’s no rule of law for Trump. He will do whatever the fuck he wants, same as he has for his entire life.
The judge may have “paused” the downsizing, but has the administration paused in its downsizing efforts?
Of course not, they have however added the judge to their enemies list.
Pshh, let me know when the judge slams him.
