there was no EO, WH is just spouting face-saving bs

"you can't stop us if we don't write it down"
the judge judged this as a distinction without a difference

"But Judge Jack McConnell says the WH press secretary's tweet above provides him with 'sufficient evidence' that a funding pause is still in place, and he'll make a final ruling after papers are filed by both sides."
the new WH spox bollixed it for Trumplandia by disclosing intent in a press conference
finger in the air, I would say Trump's executive actions so far have been more disorganized and incompetent than bold, that's encouraging
Just flinging feces at the wall to see what sticks.
If it works take 500% credit for it. If it fails, blame anyone in your visual path and then take credit for fixing it.

https://www.statnews.com/2025/01/30/...lary-payments/These were some of the effects of President Trump’s federal funding freeze on the postdoctoral researchers who rely on grants from the National Science Foundation. Though a judge blocked that suspension on Tuesday before it could take effect, and the administration rescinded the memo that ordered it on Wednesday, on Thursday the NSF’s online payment system was still down, throwing lives into uncertainty. An NSF email seen by STAT suggested salaries had been suspended to “ensure only eligible activities” are funded.
“If the freeze is not stopped, I might lose my house,” said one biologist doing a postdoctoral fellowship in the southeast, who spoke on condition that neither his name nor his state of residence be used, out of fear of retaliation. He said he had enough in his bank account to last until March, but had no idea how long the pay stoppage might last.
