AI Summary:
Press secretary Karoline Leavitt held firm that Trump’s executive order to pause federal spending would remain in effect. She said the latest directive only concerned a memo released by the Office of Budget and Management (OMB) that became public earlier this week. The decision came as the result of a federal court decision on Tuesday to temporarily block the funding freeze within hours of when it was supposed to go into effect.

Mixed messages from the administration added to a sense of chaos as programmes scramble to find answers about whether they would be affected. Military aid for two allies, Israel and Egypt, were exempt from the decision. That move also triggered a strong backlash — and a government response.

    Then stealing classified documents on his way out to leverage favors from foreign agents

    But, last time democrats at least had control of the house and Trump was surrounded by capable people, including Milley who dissuaded Trump’s worst inclinations.
