One of President Joe Biden’s final judicial nominees has put a temporary injunction on Donald Trump’s attempts to dismantle the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
Newsweek sought email comment from USAID and Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Friday.
Some Republican senators were openly angry after Amir Ali was confirmed as a Washington, D.C. federal judge in November, two weeks after Trump was elected president.
On February 13, Ali temporarily blocked Trump’s order to defund the international aid agency, USAID.
Ali placed a temporary injunction on Secretary of State Marco Rubio and others in the Trump administration, at the request of two aid agencies that receive funding from USAID, AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition and Global Health Council.

JUST IN: Judge Amir Ali, a crooked Biden appointee, just ordered President Trump to release billions in foreign aid within the next 48 hours or else…
This is the ruling that this administration MUST IGNORE. Republican Congress members should be drafting articles of impeachment… pic.twitter.com/L4wgY3j7iU
