Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner Federal Judge Rules Trump Administration is VIOLATING COURT ORDER!
A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration is violating a restraining order the judge issued previously requiring the administration to lift the freeze on billions of dollars in federal grants.
Attorneys General from 22 states brought suit against the Trump administration asking the court to order Trump to lift the freeze on federal funds that had been allocated to the states. Judge John J. McConnell, Jr., found in favor of the states, ruling that the "sweeping freeze of federal funds is . . . likely unconstitutional and has caused and continues to case irreparable harm to a vast portion of this country."
However, the Trump administration failed to comply with the original court order. So the states filed a Motion for Enforcement of the Temporary Restraining Order. In granting the states' motion, Judge Jackson wrote:
"It is a basic proposition that all orders and judgments of courts must be complied with promptly . . . Persons who make private determinations of the law and refuse to obey an order generally risk criminal contempt even if the order is ultimately ruled incorrect."
However, the judge stopped short of holding the Trump administration in contempt, rather ordering them to comply.
Trump seems determined to plunge our nation into a constitutional crisis. Glenn exposes what might happen next if Trump continues to defy lawful court orders.
