Total miss, but that was definitely an attempt

"I always thought he wasn't a good fit for the job"

Picture of an excerpt from Joe Kent's Wikipedia page, specifically stating, "On February 3, 2025, Donald Trump named Kent as his nominee for director of the National Counterterrorism Center."

Relevant excerpts from the dissent:

But that is just the
price of living under a Constitution that gives Congress the
power to make spending decisions through the enactment
of appropriations laws. If those laws require obligation of
the money, and if Congress has not by rescission or other
action relieved the Executive of that duty, then the Executive must comply. It cannot be heard to complain, as it does
here, that the laws clash with the President’s differing view
of “American values” and “American interests.” Id., at 34.
That inconsistency, in other words, is not a cognizable
harm, to be weighed in the equitable balance. It is merely
a frustration any President must bear.

But the effect of its ruling is to allow the
Executive to cease obligating $4 billion in funds that Congress appropriated for foreign aid, and that will now never
reach its intended recipients.

Rule 65(c) In simple terms, this means that any non-USG plaintiff would be required to pay a security deposit "that the court considers proper to pay the costs and damages sustained by any party found to have been wrongfully enjoined or restrained", otherwise the TRO / PI has no teeth on contempt.

Security. The court may issue a preliminary injunction or a temporary restraining order only if the movant gives security in an amount that the court considers proper to pay the costs and damages sustained by any party found to have been wrongfully enjoined or restrained. The United States, its officers, and its agencies are not required to give security.

Slightly misleading to say "April 15th" and not also include they are required to have status updates *starting tomorrow*
