Judge Blocks Shutdown of Federal Agency

 On March 6, 2025, a U. S. judge temporarily halted President Donald Trump's effort to shut down the U. S. African Development Foundation (USADF). This decision came after the foundation's president, Ward Brehm, sought emergency court intervention.

• U. S. District Judge Richard J. Leon issued an administrative stay, preventing the USADF's closure until at least March 11, 2025.

• The stay allows the court time to review the case without making a final ruling on the merits.

• Brehm filed a lawsuit against Trump and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), claiming that DOGE accessed USADF systems to facilitate its closure.

• Brehm argued that Trump’s attempt to shut down the agency conflicts with federal law, which requires Congressional action for dissolution.

• The lawsuit alleges that DOGE workers misled USADF about their intentions under the pretense of modernization.

• After an attempted entry by DOGE officials into USADF offices, Brehm ordered staff to block them from canceling grants and contracts.

• In response, Trump issued an executive order aimed at reducing federal agencies, signaling his intention for the USADF to be minimized or eliminated.

• White House representative Anna Kelly emphasized that Trump’s executive orders should not be challenged by agency staff.

• Recent communications from Congressional Democrats asserted that only Congress has the authority to dissolve the USADF, which was established in 1980 to support African development.

The legal proceedings surrounding the USADF highlight a clash between the executive branch's efforts to streamline government and the legal framework that protects certain agencies from closure without congressional approval. The situation remains under judicial review until March 11, 2025.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents.

"On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease."
