Another day, another Left wing judge blocks Trump. In this case the judge is stopping Mr. Trump from protecting taxpayer dollars from the corruption in the Democrat states like Minnesota.
Yes, this judge ordered Trump's effort to stop funding to five deep blue states to be stopped; he wants the Feds to keep sending money to places where fraud is rampant.
It really is an Alice In Wonderland world these days. The most commonsensical measures trigger these judges because they are now showing they aren't judges at all but partisans in black robes.

This isn't a permanent injunction. The judge is just imposing a temporary freeze while asking for more information from both sides.
In the case of Minnesota, we sure could use more information on both sides. It would be nice if the Feds could turn off the money spigot while waiting for that information, and maybe they could sweet-talk the judge into allowing that, but when you read the whole article, the time frame of this isn't monstrous, anyhow.

That's good Dana but I'm not sure how a judge has the authority to order the executive branch to GIVE free money to Minnesota even while the state has already shown it has misused it. This is entirely a matter for the other branches of government.

Well, that IS true, Tim. I do with the Supremes could come up with a decision that says something on the order of "Judges should stay in their own lanes."
