Supreme Court Smacks Down Biden’s Judge – A Win for Trump’s Justice!
The Supreme Court just stepped in. It wasn’t a warm welcome for Biden’s cronies. Chief Justice Roberts put a stop to Judge Amir Ali’s crazy midnight deadline. Trump’s team is breathing easier now.
Biden-appointed Judge Ali had ordered the Trump Administration to cough up $2 billion in foreign contracts by 11:59 pm Wednesday. It was a wild, over-the-top move. The judge even slammed DOJ lawyers over the USAID disbursement. No wonder Trump’s crew fired off an emergency appeal.
The Court didn’t hesitate. In a no-nonsense order, Chief Justice Roberts wrote, “IT IS ORDERED that the February 25, 2025 orders of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, case Nos. 1:25-cv-00400 and 1:25-cv-00402, are hereby stayed pending further order of the undersigned or of the Court. It is further ordered that any response to the application be filed on or before Friday, February 28, 2025, by 12 p.m. (EST)” in a brief order. This clear move throws cold water on the judge’s erratic deadline.
Trump’s legal team wasn’t having any of it. They argued that the judge’s order was off-base. “Neither the original TRO nor the district court’s subsequent clarifications in any way suggested that the government must pay particular invoices on particular dates,” the Acting Solicitor General wrote in the emergency appeal. The DOJ hammered home that the court was playing with the timeline, moving all the goalposts for no good reason.
The argument was simple and hard-hitting. The district court didn’t have the jurisdiction to force payments by a date that made no sense. They claimed it threw the government’s review into chaos. The Supreme Court’s stay is a much-needed reality check against overreach by a Biden-appointed judge.
Trump’s DOJ pushed for a quick fix. The case showed real grit in standing up against political misuse of the law. The move by Roberts confirms that what matters is fairness and sticking to legal norms, not political agendas.
This whole episode paints a clear picture. When judicial overreach threatens the orderly process, a strong check must come down hard. Today, that check came from the top – and it’s a win for Trump and common sense justice. The battle’s far from over, but at least now the rulebook is getting respected again.
