BOSTON (AP) — A federal judge ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration can continue efforts to withhold tens of millions of dollars meant to cover hotel costs for migrants in New York City.
U.S. District Judge John McConnell in Rhode Island ruled that the government's bid to withhold Federal Emergency Management Agency money sent to New York to house migrants was not subject to an order, still in effect, that's aimed at preventing a sweeping Trump administration pause on federal funding.
“Because the Defendants are seeking to terminate funding ‘on the basis of the applicable authorizing statutes, regulations, and terms,’” McConnell said, he “sees no need for further clarification.” He denied a motion for an emergency hearing on the issue and affirmed a temporary restraining order preventing the funding freeze.

Score!
Wow - so nice of this judge to actually allow the elected President to run the executive branch.
That’s what I was thinking!
This judge changed his tune fast .
It’ll be a win when this buttwipe is impeached and barred from the judiciary for life.
And then prosecuted for attempted overthrow of the Executive.
The illegal bass turds are getting more money to pay for each meal they eat than most Americans get to eat for just one weak. The U.S. Government is a rip off.
Possibly some restraint to keep the stinker of a ruling from smelling even worse. Maybe thought he couldn’t bend over any more for the Dems.
Spend every cent in NC and send CA$750.00 total.
At last, one non corrupt judge.
I know the wheels grind slowly, and we are going to beat most of these TROs, but it still infuriates me that the Rats can pick a corrupt judge anywhere in the country and get these TROs like candy out of a vending machine.
Thankfully I can get my daily dose of facts and reasoned optimism from Jeff Childers everyday (but Sunday). These TROs are not going to work in the big picture.

Stand up to a bully with no balls and look what happens.
Did someone show him PICTURES of him and a young boy??
affirmed a temporary restraining order preventing the funding freeze....
Not a win there
Somebody definitely got to him.
About time our side figured out how to do that!
Wow...maybe writing up articles of impeachment on that one judge yesterday was a good enough shot across the bow to the rest of them.
There goes more of the democrats profit margin.
“...affirmed a temporary restraining order preventing the funding freeze.”
that sounds like he kept it in place?

He’s definitely corrupt. He was boxed into a corner.
