Judge in OMB memo fiasco isn't taking Donald's fraud - Restraining order granted!

[deminks]

NEW: Fed. judge asks the states to submit a proposed order for a temporary restraining order In the states' lawsuit against the federal aid ban, despite the recission of the OMB memo.

Says he is inclined to grant the order, and is struggling with how it will be worded.

That's what happens when your ditz press secretary shitposts on X.

Edited to add:

Federal Judge grants restraining order against Trump's funding freeze after confusing statements from Press Sec Karoline Leavitt. Judge McConnell cites her tweet, calling the OMB memo revocation 'a distinction without a difference.' Complete incompetence from the admin.

Good to see the judge taking a stand for what's right.

5. Very good

Trump could easily reinstate the ban - or parts of it - tomorrow. He needs to know he's being 'restrained'.
