A federal judge ordered the administration to pay what is owed to at least nine aid groups that sued after Trump paused all U.S. foreign assistance.

      That moment will trigger a Constitutional crisis the likes of which we have not seen since 1860.

          Yeah, but until now Republicans have been denying it. Come Monday either Trump backs down or the Republicans in Congress will essentially have to admit they are fine with giving up power to a dictatorship

            Third option: Republicans impeach the judge.

              Or SCOTUS will bail him out like they did with the initial freeze, then I think it will be obvious to most, with exception of his base, that all three branches are corrupt and complicit in the coup.

                The supreme Court is saying POTUS needs to listen to the court I thought, so there is no bailout above it. And they voted 5-4 against the administration I believe.

                  I’m cynical about our SCOTUS. While the “Supreme Court affirmed Ali’s earlier ruling but wrote that he “should clarify what obligations the government must fulfill” to comply with his ruling.” I don’t put it past them to pick it apart.

            Our government is cooked. If you’re the last one out, don’t forget to turn out the lights.
