🚨BREAKING: The Trump administration continued airing taxpayer-funded ads promoting President Donald Trump after a federal judge ordered the campaign halted, then told the court Monday that an internal email delay was to blame. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump administration kept taxpayer-funded ads running after judge ordered them stopped, blames email delay
The government’s ads aired in nearly 400 television spots on programs that began at 7 p.m. Eastern — after the judge's order was already in force.

If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.

Can someone ask CBS News why Ted Koppel said that "Bannon's technically correct; they didn't have standing" in the 60+ cases Trump and his allies lost in 2020. This is verifiably false and is a GOP talking point. Many/most of the cases Trump lost were on the merits. Do they not fact check at CBS?
