Judge Issues Order That Blocks Trump's Freeze of $3 Trillion in Government Handouts

"Donald Trump is doing exactly what he promised: Reestablishing a federal government that works for U.S. taxpayers instead of one where radical groups fleece taxpayers for trillions of dollars."

The White House budget office on Monday ordered a sweeping pause in federal grants, loans, and other financial assistance. The presidential directive threatens to paralyze a vast array of “non-profit” and activist groups that rely on federal funds.

The Establishment Media is apoplectic about taxpayer dollars getting cut off to the left’s political machine and is sowing confusion about what the order entails.

The bottom line: President Trump is executing a brilliant “flood the zone” strategy on spending cuts that could tie up grant-seekers and loan-takers in litigation for years trying to claw back federal funds.

But a federal judge is already fighting back on their behalf and has issued a court order blocking Trump’s “deep freeze” on government money.
