Summary

A federal judge in Rhode Island ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze federal funding, accusing it of violating a previous court ruling.

The lawsuit, filed by 22 states and D.C., argues the freeze is unconstitutional and causing harm. Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have suggested defying court orders.

The administration appealed the ruling, while legal experts warn officials like the Treasury Secretary could face contempt charges if they ignore it.

The case tests executive power limits and judicial authority.

- I just wanna know where all the “I need guns to fight back against tyranny” people are. They’re reeeeal quiet.
  
  They won't do shit, to them that's not tyranny because their team won.

  Responsible gun owners don’t crow about their weapons.
  
  Sure, but there are PLENTY of irresponsible ones screaming that nonsense every time a school shooting happens. It’s not like they’re rare specimens.
  
  Guess who the irresponsible ones voted for.

- Fascism is not exactly sustainable. If not the people or the military, he is bound to piss off someone close to him enough to betray him eventually.
  The issue is how many lives will be lost in the process.
  
  I'm very curious to what will be the "moment"
  
  Yeah. This is definitely what I would call "the cool zone".
  In the moments between bouts of existential dread, I am at the edge of my seat!
  
  God, we're back in the Cool Zone already?
  
  Regrettably :C
  
  Looking for the next assassination of Arch-Duke Ferdinand?
