Judge temporarily blocks Trump's freeze on all federal aid

Firstpost  

In the second instance of a judge staying an order of the Donald Trump administration, Judge Loren AliKhan of the District of Columbia has temporarily blocked the freeze on federal aid until the case is heard next on February 3 Will Scharf assists as President Donald Trump signs an executive order at an indoor Presidential Inauguration parade event in Washington, Monday, Jan. 20, 2025. AP A US judge has temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s freeze on all federal aid. Judge Loren AliKhan of the District of Columbia on Tuesday stayed Trump’s freeze in response to a lawsuit by non-profit Democracy Forward. Even though the White House appeared to downplay the extent of the freeze, saying it did not “apply across-the-board” and was limited to programs implicated by Trump’s executive orders, including those “that undermine the national interest”, the language of the freeze order was sweeping and said federal agencies “must temporarily pause all activities related to obligation or disbursement of all federal financial assistance".
