A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked the Trump Administration from firing federal workers during the government shutdown.
US District Judge Susan Illston, a Clinton appointee, issued a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) on Wednesday and stopped the Trump Administration from firing federal workers.
The Schumer Shutdown began on October 1, and the Senate has voted 9 times – and failed 9 times – to reopen the government because Schumer wants to give illegal aliens healthcare.
Layoffs of federal employees officially began last Friday as the U.S. government shutdown entered another tense phase, according to Trump administration budget chief Russell Vought, who confirmed the sweeping reductions in a social media post.
“The RIFs have begun,” Vought announced on X, using the acronym for “Reductions in Force.”
Norm Eisen, the Deep State’s favorite lawyer who spearheaded the color revolution and more than 180 lawsuits against Trump, sued the Trump Administration to stop the RIFs.
Norm Eisen filed a lawsuit on behalf of federal labor unions and judge shopped to make sure his case was assigned to Judge Illston because she ruled in favor of labor unions in a RIF case in the past.
