Here we go again. Another federal judge had decided to undo the firing of federal employees, this time at USAID.
U.S. District Judge Theodore D. Chuang ordered Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency to reinstate access to email, payment, security notification and other electronic systems for all USAID employees and contractors. He also ordered the department to provide written confirmation of compliance to the court within seven days.
«The court will require Defendants, within 14 days, to secure and submit a written agreement among all necessary parties that ensures that USAID will be able to reoccupy USAID headquarters at its original location, in the event of a final ruling in favor of Plaintiffs», the order said.
The idea that this judge’s take will be the «final ruling» is amusing. President Trump has already said the government will appeal. The judge’s order was a preliminary one but no doubt this is how he is going to rule eventually. Then this case will go to the appeals court and possibly from there to the Supreme Court.
Trump blasted the ruling during a Fox News interview that aired Tuesday night, saying his administration would appeal.
