One of Biden’s Final Appointments, First Federal Muslim Judge Judge Amir Ali Rules Trump Administration Has to Pay Millions in Jihad Aid

Judge Amir Ali is one of Biden’s final appointments has put a hold on Donald Trump’s attempts to dismantle the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

Terrorist activists on our bench.

This madness is a terrible flaw in our system of governance. In this case of judicial malfeasance, sharia law trumps Western law.

U.S. District Judge Amir Ali granted a motion to enforce his temporary restraining order from Feb. 13. It required the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, to restore foreign-assistance funds for contracts and other awards while proceedings continue in a case brought by a group of businesses, nonprofits and organizations that do foreign aid work.

This is insanity. A federal judge forcing the President to keep laundering OUR money to foreign nations? This is out of control.

Federal judge rules Trump administration has to pay millions in foreign aid

By:ABC Action News, February 25, 2025:

A federal judge is ordering the Trump administration to dole out millions of dollars to multiple nonprofits groups, determining the Trump administration violated the terms of a temporary restraining order issued two weeks ago regarding freezing foreign aid.

Judge Amir Ali, a Biden-era appointee, excoriated Trump administration attorneys during a lengthy hearing on Tuesday over its failure to pay the groups for work they conducted prior to President Trumps Jan. 20 executive order, which froze all foreign aid for 90 days. Ali also signed an order to enforce a temporary restraining order he signed on Feb. 13, ruling the groups must be paid by 11:59 p.m. Wednesday.

“Plaintiffs submitted evidence that defendants have not lifted the suspension or freeze of funds as the [temporary restraining order] required. Defendants have not rebutted that evidence, and when asked today, defendants were not able to provide any specific examples of unfreezing funds pursuant to the Court’s TRO,” Judge Ali said after a two-hour hearing today.

Lawyers with the Department of Justice acknowledged that the Trump administration ignored the temporary restraining order, which prohibited them from freezing foreign aid funds since the order was issued. Instead, they argued that they should not be required to pay back the money because of “sovereign immunity.”
