Federal judge shuts down Trump order for mass layoffs during government shutdown
FTA:
President Donald Trump's order for mass layoffs of federal workers was temporarily halted by a federal judge who said the administration was acting out of political motivation.
Susan Illston, a U.S. district court judge for the Northern District of California, sided on Wednesday with two unions that filed a lawsuit against the layoffs.
'It has a human cost. It's a human cost that cannot be tolerated.'
It's been 15 days since the government shut down.
Illston accused the Trump administration of taking advantage of the "lapse in government spending and government functioning" and acting as if "all bets are off" and "the laws don't apply to them anymore."

Yeah. Tell this judge to order the Senate to vote to end the shutdown?

A fine idea Dana. If he's going to run the executive branch why not the legislative as well?
