BREAKING: A federal judge slams Donald Trump with a major defeat by ruling that his administration broke federal law by removing a public website that showed how federal funding is divided amongst different agencies — and orders that it be reinstated.

The courts are our last line of defense once again...

"There is nothing unconstitutional about Congress requiring the Executive Branch to inform the public of how it is apportioning the public’s money. Defendants are therefore required to stop violating the law!" U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan wrote in his ruling.

Sullivan stated that the online database, which was overseen by the MAGA-controlled office of Management and Budget, could not just be unilaterally terminated because Congressional legislation demands that the OMB make all apportionment decisions publicly available within two business days.

According to Congress, the OMB must "operate and maintain” the system for “fiscal year 2023 and each fiscal year thereafter." The Trump administration killed the website earlier this year as part of the broader MAGA agenda to gut the federal government and eliminate its crucial services, absurdly citing national security concerns.

“When Defendants removed the Public Apportionments Database, they deprived CREW and Protect Democracy of information to which they are statutorily entitled, and which they relied on to monitor government funding, respond to possible legal violations, and provide transparency to the public,” wrote Sullivan.

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) and Protect Democracy helped bring the lawsuit against the administration.

"Today’s decision makes clear that the executive branch cannot simply ignore appropriations laws they disagree with on policy grounds, no matter what President Trump or OMB Director Russell Vought thinks,” stated Cerin Lindgrensavage, counsel at Protect Democracy.

"Congress passed a law making sure the American public could see how their taxpayer dollars are being spent, and we will continue to hold the administration accountable for making good on that promise," she added.

Judge Sullivan has given the Justice Department until Thursday morning to formulate a response in case they want to appeal the ruling.

The Senate just voted 51-50 (with VP Vance as tiebreaker) to pass HR1, the so-called Big Beautiful Bill. We're one step away from the largest EVER cuts to healthcare and food assistance in Kentucky. It's not too late to stop this! Call the hotline: 866-426-2631.

Congress's trillion-dollar healthcare cut will force many hospitals—especially rural and non-profit hospitals—to close. But no state will feel those effects quite like Kentucky. A new report identifies 338 hospitals in danger... 1 out of every 10 is in Kentucky.

Think about it!!! 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
