It was done very poorly and my guess is the White House lawyers were not confident the injunction would be lifted next week.

To recap:

Medicaid was listed in the original document (archived at Politico):

The administration then partially walked it back and issued a second document that listed exclusions (archived at Politico):

This was like the blanket hiring freeze. The administration had to partially walk it back after Democrats pointed out that the freeze prevented the hiring of hard to fill positions that provide direct care to veterans.

These Heritage Foundation bros are amateurs.


I really thought Trump and his team learned their lesson over the last 4 years.

It was not rescinded, you idiot.

Where in my post did I say that?

They engaged in terrible strategy and fricked this up entirely.

I mean if they're re-writing the memo a day later, it's hard to spin that other than fricking it up.

Imagine if Biden or Kamala's admin did this. Everyone on here would be laughing at them.

The messaging from the press secretary looks terrible as well.

At the launch site in Brownsville texas, The flight manager upon seeing a crash and burn simply sez we learned a lot even though we had an episodic disassembly . We will go again shortly.

Now that sounds a whole lot like this freeze federal aid activity.

Didn't a judge put a restraining order on it?


Which is now moot because that order has been rescinded.

EDIT: I see that the EO was NOT rescinded.

I do like the "the media spun it!" and "the judge issued an injunction!" excuses, as if these were shocking responses to the EO and there was no way for the admin to anticipate the response

That's the best you can do? The messaging?

Maybe, maybe not. Luckily, we don't have to worry about them ever again.

Isn't "media messaging" the justifications for this reversal?

I read the omb and it’s pretty clear in its statement.


Follow the executive orders.
