BREAKING: Federal judge orders Trump administration to stop DHS's pro-Trump propaganda ads immediately, including ordering the canceling of ads set to run as soon as this evening. Background: www.lawdork.com/p/doj-does-n...
Based on the materials provided, the Court does not require the additional conference on
October 13, 2026 and such conference is adjourned. The Court finds that (1) the present motion
is not moot, (2) there is standing to proceed, and (3) the moving Plaintiffs have demonstrated that they are likely to succeed on the merits, will suffer irreparable harm in the absence of an injunction, the balance of the equities tips in their favor, and an injunction serves the public interest. A full opinion shall follow shortly. Therefore, the Court GRANTS the moving Plaintiffs' motion, and IT IS HEREBY:
ORDERED that under 5 U.S.C. § 705, the purchase order entered into on or about September 20, 2026 between Customs Border Protection ("CBP") and Lepugh, Inc., doing business as LMD Agency, Inc., ("LMD") ("September 20, 2026 purchase order") is stayed, including all future payments made thereunder; it is further
ORDERED that under 5 U.S.C. § 705, the Office of Management and Budget's ("OMB") apportionment of $20 million to fund the development, creation, and/or airing of theadvertisements covered by the September 20, 2026 purchase order, including but not limited to The Country He Loves, Celebrating the Enduring Spirit, Final Battle, To the Great Proud People of Iran, and Maduro (collectively "the challenged advertisements") is stayed; it is further
ORDERED that Defendants are enjoined from using, disbursing, or transferring funds appropriated to the Department of Homeland Security ("DHS") to develop, create, disseminate, place, distribute, publish, or air the challenged advertisements; and it is further
ORDERED that Defendants shall cancel or cause to be cancelled any slot, placement, reservation, or arrangement for the airing or dissemination of the challenged advertisements,
including those placements for the evening of October 11, 2026;
ORDERED that Defendants shall not enter into, renew, or expand any agreement authorizing the development, creation, dissemination, placement, or airing of the challenged
advertisements; and it is furtherORDERED that the foregoing instructions bind Defendants' officers, agents, employees, contractors, and anyone acting in concert with them. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(d)(2).
ORDERED that Defendants shall immediately provide a copy of this order to LMD,
under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(d)(2)(C), and that LMD, as a contractor that is in active concert and participation with Defendants, is enjoined from continuing to run or place the
challenged advertisements; and it is further
ORDERED that Defendants will file a status report within 24 hours of the entry of this temporary restraining order and Section 705 stay, confirming compliance with this Order; and it
is further
ORDERED that this Order shall remain in effect until 14 days from today, subject to an extension of this Court; and it is further
ORDERED that, in the Court's discretion, Plaintiffs shall not be required to post a bond.Case 1:26-cv-08882-JLR Document 41 Filed 10/11/26 Page 4 of 4
This Order shall be effective as of 6:45 p.m. on October 11, 2026 and the Clerk of Court
is respectfully requested to close the motion at Dkt. 25. The Court will reschedule the October
13, 2026 conference to discuss next steps in this matter.
Dated: October 11, 2026
New York, New York
SO ORDERED.

Chris Murphy: "Donald Trump was so fundamentally unprepared for this war that within days of the war starting, our billion dollar air bases and naval bases in the region were obliterated by the Iranians. Every single American should be furious about that."

Another bad report for Kim Guilfoyle: According to an audio recording reviewed by WSJ, Guilfoyle boasted at Davos about her close ties to two Greek tycoons and said they were bankrolling her high-rolling trips around the world.

A recording captured the U.S. ambassador saying that Greek businessmen were paying for her travels and pleading for an invitation to an event with Eric Trump.

The Talarico nonsense being spread by GOP influencers is a typical republican “scandal” - lots of BREAKING!! And 🚨 but no actual substance. If anyone from the Paxton campaign coordinated with influencers to spread these lies, people should go to prison, and Talarico should sue the fuck out of them.
