The foreign-born judge behind a ruling forcing President Donald J. Trump to authorize around $2 billion in payments from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to several non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is a Canadian-American jurist. United States District Court Judge Amir Ali, who serves on the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, was one of the last appointees named by former President Joe Biden, becoming the first Arab American Muslim on the federal bench.
Ali assumed office less than two weeks after Donald J. Trump won the 2024 presidential election and has quickly emerged as one of the more troublesome judges in the early days of the America First leader’s second term.

It has been held that presidents don’t have default impoundment rights.
Can djt do some type of pardonfare to retaliate?
Such as pardoning all or most people who this judge has found guilty?
If the judge wants to make a mockery then trump can nake a mockery of his justice.
I am going to trust that DJT has a plan up his sleeze to deal with the judicial branch lunacy. Truthfully, right now it might be part of the plan to destroy itself. When trump is ready he will strike a blow and the whole fraud will collapse.
he looks like what all americans and europeans will look like in a few years.
He looks like he could rip open his suicide vest and shriek “Allahu Akbar!” at any moment.
How can these judges “force” the President to do anything????
Where’s his family from? Palestinians or Iranians or what?
After being advanced out of the Senate Judiciary Committee on an 11 to 10 partisan-line vote, Ali’s nomination languished in the Senate for seven months, with Democrats unable to secure a cloture vote. However, in November, then-Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) began pushing the nomination forward and secured cloture 50 to 48. Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN) was absent from the vote, being in Indiana to prepare for his transition as the state’s newly elected governor. Former Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) joined Republicans in voting against cloture and final confirmation, but with Sen. Braun absent, Amir Ali was confirmed by the Senate on a partisan 50 to 49 vote.At the time,
Vice President Kamala Harris was in Hawaii and would have been unable to cast a tie-breaking vote.
F**K.
He thinks he’s running the country. He needs to be smacked down hard.
judge has no proper jurisdiction over a President’s foreign policy
Ah, now I remember. Muslim family is from Egypt, so most likely a plague on the Coptic Christians, too.
I wonder how much money USAID has given to his former NGO.
Being from Egypt and nutty enough to be a Democrat nominee, it would be interesting if his family has ties to Ayman al Zawahri’s brother’s group over there that reared their heads during the Arab Spring debacle.
Impeach this judge and deport him pronto.
“the first Arab American Muslim on the federal bench”
I give up.
WTF is “American” about him other then his wet passport?
He has zero history in this country either of himself or his family.
Worse, he’s from an enemy culture.
How did he end up being a Federal Judge in of all places Washington DC?
He’s literally an alien.
Let’s start by removing him from the country.
His days are numbered.
I think we can thank Obeyme and his puppet master Schwartz Gyorgy for this.
Biden and the leftist/liberal/commies placed him...They have decimated our legal system and we have allowed it...DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!
