Clinton Judge Says Trump Violated Injunction with State Department Firings

A federal judge on Wednesday said the Trump Administration violated her preliminary injunction pausing mass layoffs.

Last month US District Judge Susan Illston, a Clinton appointee, turned a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) into a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump Administration’s effort to overhaul and reorganize 20 agencies in the Executive Branch.

In February, President Trump implemented an executive order to completely overhaul the Executive Branch through the work of DOGE.
