Judge Ana C. Reyes, a Biden appointee, excoriated lawyers representing the former government watchdogs for how they handled their emergency request, but let the lawsuit proceed on a slower timeline.
The judicial theater continues its circus act, with a Biden-appointed judge slamming the brakes on reinstating Trump’s ousted watchdogs. Ana Reyes, in her infinite patience, roasted the plaintiffs’ legal team for fumbling the emergency request—21 days to file a TRO? Even the most jaded court-watchers cringed at that amateur hour.
Trump’s purge sprint hits a procedural pothole, not a moral one. The admin’s playbook? Fire, delay, repeat. Reyes’s ruling isn’t a win for accountability; it’s a bureaucratic limbo where IG roles dangle like puppets. The real kicker? Even if reinstated, Trump could ax them again in 30 days. Democracy’s checks and balances? More like a dumpster fire with a lifetime subscription.
