    Have you not noticed they’re being ruined in the courts and obeying the rulings?

      They’re not obeying the rulings. They’re ignoring them. Multiple judges have had to reissue orders demanding compliance. But of course, since they refuse to actually attach consequences to those orders, they’re little more than the legalese equivalent of asking pretty please.

      Look at it this way. Look at all the rulings saying the mass firings were all illegal. And while some of them were re-hired because Musk has no idea what he’s doing, none of them have actually been re-hired as a result of court orders and the firings keep continuing.

      It doesn’t matter: they did terminal damage faster than the courts could react.

        And it’s a way to put the judges that give pushback.

      Are they being ruined in the courts? I haven’t seen any recent updates on this situation, but so far I am tracking that the admin has basically ignored the unfreeze ruling.

      https://www.nonprofitpro.com/article/supreme-court-steps-into-trump-administration-battle-on-usaid-funding-freeze/

      Due to similarities, both cases were assigned to U.S. District Judge Amir H. Ali, who issued a temporary restraining order against the USAID funding freeze on Feb. 13. Despite that order, the Trump administration, in a Feb. 18 filing, admitted it had circumvented the court’s order.

      Here is a more recent article on this: https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/i-cant-get-a-straight-answer-from-you-judge-loses-patience-with-trump-admin-lawyer-for-repeatedly-ignoring-court-order-unfreezing-usaid-funds-issues-harsh-evidentiary-demands/
