US Judge blocks housing grant cuts while anti-DEI challenge proceeds

I am sure that name sounds familiar.

WASHINGTON, Oct 1 (Reuters) - A federal judge temporarily blocked the ?Trump administration from canceling nearly $56 million in housing counseling grants, preserving the funding while a legal challenge to the ?cuts moves forward.
In an order issued late on Wednesday, US District Judge Jia Cobb suspended the September 30 deadline that would ordinarily cause the funds to lapse and revert to the Treasury, writing that she was "not presently in a position to grant or deny" the groups' request for broader relief but was ?also hesitant to allow the date to pass if doing so would cause the plaintiffs to permanently lose access to ?the funding.
I am sure that name sounds familiar.

You're mis-stating the argument
The argument is "lawfare" is another malleable term that shifts as is necessary for a particular point/argument. Like "globalism", "Deep State", etc.
I'll give an example. Alabama just passed a patently illegal law (death penalty for sex offenders). Was that law fare? Will it become law fare if they ever try to enforce it? Will appealing a ruling be law fare? Can its law fare status be cleansed with a wholesale change in the law by the USSC? What are the rules/definitions?

patently illegal law

Oh lord -- Sounds like we are going to get a 10 page discussion thread [with you as the main contributor], on 'What is your definition of lawfare?'
Thank heaven today is for college football.

Lawfare is the new buzz word for the boomer crowd mad that the country isn’t a dictatorship. But only when they like their dictator.

There is a Supreme Court ruling directly on topic
The death penalty is not legal for child rape

It's a nonsense term with no set definition
I'm not the one using it or incorrectly stating the argument about the term

Well that doesn’t mean anything.

You are the rare example on this board
who recognizes useless semantic and rhetorical inventions that are in vogue but tossed around too frequently. “Lawfare” only has meaning to the speaker using it to argue a point of view…

Aren’t you being a little disingenuous? It’s obvious how and why the term was originally used and developed.
Your example is meaningless because there is no political component or weaponization of a political figure.
Certainly you recognize that instead of pretending the definition is malleable enough for you to obfuscate the actual point of the thread(s).

Lawfare is the selective enforcement dependent on a set of variables such as political affiliation.
Did NY selectively go after Trump for over valuating property to get more favorable loan terms or did they go after everyone they suspected of doing this?
Did NY change their statute of limitations to speficslly go after Trump or did they go after everyone that would have been subject to the statute after changing it?

Did the candidate for NY AG specifically run on "getting Trump"?
There's a reason the VAST majority of TROs/injunctions/stays that have been routinely reversed/lifted by higher courts are coming from O'Biden judges.
And, of course, the Batsignal went up to SFP, who responded as expected.

I don't use it so no. I am not the one creating infinite definitions and uses of the term

Originally ain't today
The term keeps changing and evolving and adding definitions as we go on
That's the point
