The liberal DC Circuit Court of Appeals handed President Trump a massive win on Saturday after a district court judge ordered him to rehire staff from far-left Voice of America that will have impacts lasting beyond just this one case, according to a legal expert.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, a federal judge last month ordered the Trump Administration to rehire Voice of America (VOA) and other affiliate news services staff. The affiliate staff included Radio Free Asia and the Middle East Broadcasting Network.

In March, Trump placed employees and contractors for government-funded Voice of America on leave.

US District Judge Royce Lamberth, a Reagan appointee, said Voice of America is funded by Congress and Trump’s cuts to the agency are “a direct affront to the power of the legislative branch.”

He then granted a preliminary injunction.

Thanks to this ridiculous decision, Voice of America staffers were set to return to work next week, and the station was set to resume broadcasting. But then an unexpected setback occurred this afternoon.

The DC Court of Appeals entered a stay of Lamberth’s injunction and suspended the first-instance decision, blocking the order that allowed them to return to work.


quote:

“The Court of Appeals decision is based on fundamental issue of “jurisdiction,” she explained. “This conclusion should have wide-spread ramifications because many of challenges to Trump Administration are about employment decisions which CONGRESS said are NOT for district courts to decide.”


quote:

Cleveland summed up her analysis of the massive decision by noting Trump achieved a big win that will apply to other cases brought against him for three key reasons: First, courts have no jurisdiction over firings; second, they have no jurisdiction over grant terminations; and third, judges can use creative ‘loopholes’ to get around Congress.

“In sum, this opinion is a HUGE win for Trump because it establishes 3 key principles that apply to many of the other cases being brought against Trump Administration: a) no jurisdiction over firings; b) no jurisdiction over grant terminations; c) you can’t get around Congress limiting district court jurisdiction by creative pleading of claims under other theories

warning to the left!

It is Gateway Pundit, beating the shite out of the esteemed MSM.

The article includes a tweet from noted "bad candidate" Kari Lake.

The bitch that AZ "elected" governor proved her worth today or yesterday by vetoing a bill requiring her and their bitch Sec State to obey immigration law.

How is a Reagan appointee still on the bench?

I know it’s a life time appointment but that’s at least 37 years.

That’s insane

Pretty quiet thread. I thought it would have been on fire by now.

I believe you're making a much more general comment than what the court ruled

District courts lack jurisdiction over a very specific set of claims.

quote:

The Tucker Act vests the Court of Federal Claims with jurisdiction over claims against the United States “founded … upon any express or implied contract with the United States.” 28 U.S.C. § 1491(a)(1). We have long held that this jurisdictional grant, where it applies, is exclusive and thus bars application of the sovereign-immunity waiver set forth in the APA
