The Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998 grants the executive branch the authority to restructure USAID. Judges may be disregarded if their rulings are deemed invalid. After all, Democrats had no objection to Biden ignoring judges’ rulings.
Democrats suck too, but two wrongs don’t make a right.
But judges aren't dictators; they can't shut down the executive branch. The idea that the executive branch has no right to review government expenditures is ridiculous. Yet these are exactly the types of judges we are dealing with.
Musk could close USAID, but he needs congressional approval. He can reduce the size of USAID through a RIF, but specific rules need to be followed to implement. He didn’t do any of that.
This isn’t the judge’s fault, it is Musk’s. He didn’t read the process and the other branch checked him. Civics 101.
