Blocked putting 2200 on administrative leave

Held the 30 day deadline to return from overseas not sufficient - so blocked that too.

Ordered reinstatement of the 500 already put on leave.

Yes, a Trump appointee. Doesn't make the ruling any less fricking infuriating.

We should ignore the order and continue on.

Or allow them back but cut their access to basically zero and don’t allow them in buildings. Essentially freeze them out with no projects and we can lay them but the harm they are doing is done.

Also unleash right hackers to dig into every thing about these judges. Turn up every last document on them and root them out. I bet this one is corrupt.

Not overly shocking as the establishment/Deep State will exhaust every available avenue to preserve itself.

No federal employee has a “right” to their job and I’m confident this will ultimately be confirmed via the court system.

Boo fricking who...

We've lived overseas for decades and don't have a home to go back to.

We'll have to pull our special needs kids out of school.

People lose their fricking jobs every goddamned day and have to deal with this sort of shite. That fact you are sucking from the government tit doesn't make you special.

It’s not looking good via corrupted courts as this one was a Trump appointment. Of course the round 1 appointments are probably full of disappointments since too many deep staters had access.

Many of them work for Uncle Sam in some capacity. I know of some that are MAGA all day, voted for this and they will probably lose their job.

USAID was started with EO and can be shuttered with an EO, judge can't stop that.

U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, also agreed to block an order that would have given just 30 days for the thousands of overseas USAID workers the administration wanted to place on abrupt administrative leave to move their families back to the U.S. at the government's expense.

Let them back because it’s hard to work w no pay no budget and no equipment. Remove the funding.

This is not a problem. Remember Trump’s tactics.

He’s recentering the debate, or discussion, or Overton Window, if you prefer.

He doesn’t really intend to harm any workers who want a job and who are willing to work hard. At the same time, he is trying to root out the bloat of the federal work force (not to mention the corruption).

This tactic being used seems to be a combination of Trump and Musk. Make such an immediate and audacious move to shake things up to see what’s really going on, and then make appropriate adjustments and accommodations on the back end.

It’s a good time to wait and see. The courts get to have their say. That’s our system.

I think you’re correct.

I believe the money is already appropriated through congress. So it’s going to be spent. Trump is going to manage it and be transparent about it.

It has almost come to a point whereas Judges must be held accountable, even imprisoned, for incorrect decisions.
