Judge McConnell is an activist who has no business sitting in judgement of the president or his administration.

[hardspunned]

Every single one is dirty and compromised.

[metmom]

Isn’t it the responsibility of the EXECUTIVE branch to enforce laws?

Or do judges control law enforcement agencies?

[exnavy]

How is this idiot going to arrest anyone?

[econjack]

Take the SOB to court. He is not a dictator, but merely one who interprets the law.

[RummyChick]

Chair Emeritus of Cross Roads who receives funding from Govt. They received funding in Jan 2025 as pointed out by poster here.

I think daughter worked for Dept of Education

[RummyChick]

btw, i posted a new order from him from today.

[budj]

This pussy-whipped clown should be impeached for not recusing himself.

[CodeToad]

I do not see how a geolimited judge can make a ruling that affects something that is national.

I do not see how such a judge cannot be in collision with another judge who might rule the exact opposite.

[Bob434]

Hey Judge- BREAKING: A federal judge just ruled that President Trump does have the authority to freeze and/or limit federal funding.!

Put that in yer pipe and smoke it sir!

[nopardons]

BTTT

Take the SOB to court. He is not a dictator, but merely one who interprets the law.

There is not, and cannot be, a law which could be used to “take” this - or any other sitting judge - “to court.”

The only “court” to which a judge can be haled is Congress - in which the House can indict (“impeach”) by a simple majority, but it takes 2/3 of the Senate to convict.

This is annoying, but think what Schumer et al would have done to Justice Thomas et al if he had had any mechanism other than impeachment to employ against them.

These entry level judges’ rulings are mere pinpricks compared to the depredations of the Warren Supreme Court back in the day. Happily the present configuration of SCOTUS supports confidence of which I could only dream back in the 1960s.

[Organic Panic]

Replace these federal judges with the nearest passed out bum on the streets and we will get better rulings.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

McConnell is a bitch like Mitch. I heard that Mitch the Bitch voted against Tulsi.

LAWFARE: The Obama-appointed judge that threatened the Trump administration with arrest

To paraphrase Andrew Jackson, "The Judge has made his ruling now let him enforce it." It would be the responsibility of the Justice Department under the Attorney General to enforce, and I seriously doubt Pam Bondi is going to order the FBI to round up and lock up the entire administration.

THIS JUDGE’S WIFE IS A RECIPIENT OF USAID GRANT $$$$$.

“HOPE FOR CHILDREN IN ETHIOPIA” $2.1 MILLION

OPERATES UNDER HER MAIDEN NAME. CAROL RHODES IS ONE NAME.

THEY JUST CANNOT LET ALL THIS SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY—RIGHT???

[ridesthemiles]

ALSO-—DAUGHTER MAY WORK FOR DEPT OF EDUCATION.

[Sirius Lee]

2 million for her, 90k for an administrator, and a thousand bucks for get well cards to Ethiopians.

[LouAvul]

Liberals are insane. Why are we surprised when one of those scum pops up in a high place?

[decal]

This schmoe should be judging transvestite beauty contests.

[Savage Beast]

The US Supreme Court has the authority to end all of this lawfare quickly and permanently. It would if the justices were not appallingly lacking in moral and intellectual clarity.

In failing to act and bring justice to the American People, they have approached the level of Supreme Court Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney and the infamous 1857 Dred Scott decision.
