  • Judge blocks Trump's spending freeze

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 28 20:48:20 2025
    U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan blocked the Trump administration
    from implementing it for now.
    ...
    ...
    The ruling is a win for nonprofit and public health groups who filed a
    lawsuit earlier Tuesday challenging the broad spending freeze the
    Trump's budget office ordered overnight. Those groups said even a
    brief implementation of the freeze could cause devastating outcomes
    for people who rely on federal funds for services, as well as the
    workers who provide them.

    For any apple cart upset, there are economic consequences.

    Government funding can (and does) support businesses who feed off of
    an apple cart.

    Take NIH research where drug companies are involved...money talks.

    Trump Causes Mass Confusion With Funding Freeze Updates

    Donald Trump took back his chaotic freeze on federal grants and
    loans----only to immediately take back the take-back.
    ...
    ...
    This first major fiasco by the Trump administration promises only more
    chaos to come.

    Companies should not feed of the government. They are not real companies,
    so it is good if they instead seek their profits on the free market.

    Excellent! He's messing with the brains of socialist democrats. Wouldn't surprise me if he takes back the take back of the take back!

    The democrats are so clueless, they have no chance in this battle. It is
    like stealing candy from children! =D

    White House rescinded funding memo after GOP senators 'hit the
    ceiling'

    The White House budget office rescinded a memo ordering a broad freeze
    on federal grants and loans after Republican senators "hit the
    ceiling" over the order, which caught them completely by surprise and
    created confusion in their home states.
    ...
    ...
    "Republicans were starting to hit the ceiling, because the state
    governments, people in our states were coming to us saying, 'Wait,
    wait, wait, wait. What does this mean? Does it mean we're going to
    lose funding for X, Y, Z?'" said one Republican senator who requested
    anonymity to discuss the uproar behind closed doors caused by the
    memo.
