And if he doesn’t comply? Then what? Who are the enforcers?

💙💙💙🗽

Good decision but 5-4! 😡

This was trump’s attempt to do business as usual as he did in his private life: People are hired to do a job, do the job then when it’s time to pay them, he renegotiates their pay & they have to agree, sue or they don’t get paid at all. This was that. This is how its going to be - tariffs, same.

Yay!! Big victory for the world!! Trump’s minions had better move their asses and get the aid out NOW!!

Great! They finally did do Thing with integrity !

Who's surprised Trump appealed this all the way to the Supreme Court when, as a"businessman", he stiffed his contractors all the time.

With out a doubt!

Trump: “we will appeal” to Russian Supreme Court

Now to see if the constitution and the rule of law can actually survive. Heaven help us if not!

The court didn't set a deadline for compliance. DT can basically say the check is in the mail and get away with it.

bit harder to ignore the supreme court of the united states than it is a district court. a hearing for an injunction is scheduled though so there's still more to come

Well that's not OUR problem is it 🙄. What are we supposed to do - care about other people? Deep sarcasm in case you're worried I'm a sociopath.

Magic 8 Ball says - unlikely.

No.

Don't hold ypur breath. The court says he has to comply, but didn't give a deadline. Fecking useless.

🇺🇸❤️🤍💙‼️HALLELUJAH!!!🇺🇸❤️🤍💙‼️

They are dismantling election integrity controls so if congress won’t impeach when he doesn’t comply, or if the people don’t “rise up” in compelling enough numbers, we’re looking at a very dark period that goes beyond the next 4 years. Governors could take actions, but they would be unprecedented

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Now we watch to see if Trump will follow the LAW

THANK GOD!!!!!

Isn’t it still just sitting there? It’s going to go bad !! Impeach him!!!

I don't believe she's acting. I think her legal views, rather than completely partisan views, are what drive her decisions.

Will the Muskies still refuse?

I’m not a lawyer, but the dissent doesn’t appear to be based on law (at least per the article) but rather purely political. Am I missing something?

Maybe CJ Roberts didn't really like that mafioso boss-like slap on the shoulder last night.

Deleting all the legislation work used to tally the 1.5 billion just because the president wants to funnel money to rich people tax breaks is not a good look. The Supreme Court have given the executive branch too much leeway. Time to snap back.

Not surprised. Roberts started to get cold feet about Trump in his end-of-the-year summary and Coney-Barrett is much more driven by (real) legal arguments than the GOP gave her credit for.

Now send the Marshals to arrest Russell Voight if it's not released immediately. Next, arrest Fake News DT and ask if his Russian Asset(puppets) is then that should be deported for treason.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

And I am super glad about this, but I also wish they would protect those of us unlucky enough to live here.

Does Congress know?

The belly pat..disrespectful.. telling Roberts you are mine

Party pooper 😒😒… just kidding. Thank you for the context. Much appreciated!

Which he will just ignore and do what he wants anyway.😡

"Thank you again, I won't forget". That's what Trump is quoted as saying to Roberts, referring to the broad immunity they ruled on last year.

First to say I’m quite pleasantly surprised!

💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 GO Supreme Court ! SAVE USA DEMOCRACY NOW!

5-4 SCOTUS is playing games, when the impoundment case comes they are going to invalidate it and it will be a real disaster. better hope ACB and Roberts can keep this country functional because that slate of four is really quite dangerous.

5 to 4 is too close. Aren’t they just following the constitution? That means 4 don’t. They just follow 🦧

Pleasantly surprised by the SC at least having some sort of backbone

Great! They ordered the release of the funds, but how will those funds get disbursed if most of the agency's workers were fired?

Will the Russian asset follow the order? I seriously doubt it. Will Republicans in Congress do anything about lawless Trump? Hell no.

We will see if they defy SCOTUS

Lets see if it happens. I hope so, cause all this is some bs.

Yes! Good! One small victory

There is no guarantee they will comply, it seems inevitable they won't at some point.

M. I. R. A. C. L. E.

Roberts and ACB are the only 2 people in the country who can save democracy. (Unless GOP Congress grows s spine which looks unlikely)

RELEASE THE FUNDS

Musk has already fired everyone that would administer those funds. This ruling will have little impact on the lack of execution of Congressionally Mandated spending. Every fired member of USAID needs to take this ruling & sue Trump & Musk for wrongful termination & bankrupt the both of them

The ‘SAVE Act’ is voter suppression. Call your reps, tell them vote NO 5 Calls makes it easy to call. Enter your zip code, pick the issue (in this case the SAVE Act), your members of Congress will show and you just pick a name to call. There is also a script provided if you want to use it 5calls.org

Will they release it or hold it back? And if they withhold it what will be the consequences?

This is where arrests will be made for non-compliance, right? We see just how THIS crisis is going to play out

Best news of the day!

And I just learned today that a good chunk of that money was for work already completed by contractors. How very, very Trumpian of him to try to stiff contactors for work done ! Then we get the CJ Roberts "I won't forget this" line on top of it - Trump Mafioso.

Thank God

Great news!

What the feck good is an order like this with no deadline? It just gives DT a way to ignore the Court's ruling without being held accountable.

Fair point; they have indeed.

It is cause and effect... one happens, then the other happens in response. The coup has already happened. All that being said, I am fully on board with the fight!!

Protect USAID! Healthcare is a human right! Flip the House Blue ASAP! Two upcoming special elections in FL-1 & FL-6 on April 1 can create deadlock with 50-50 party split in House. Third special election in NY-21 can Flip the House Blue! #FlipCongressBlue www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4gm...
