The Trump admin has stated it will comply with a court order to halt a climate and energy funding freeze that's forced grantees to furlough workers, eat costs and delay projects.

UPDATE: The judge who blocked Trump's spending freeze accused the administration of being "disingenuous" about its intentions and attempting to skirt legal review by rescinding — but still implementing — the OMB spending freeze memo.

JUST IN: A federal judge in Washington says she's concerned that the White House is still implementing the spending freeze that she and a Rhode Island judge have ordered temporarily halted.

NEW—Norfolk Southern has pumped $5M into DC since its East Palestine crash 2 years ago, stifling a rail safety bill.

Vance co-led it. Trump said the town wouldn’t be “forgotten.”

But the duo starting w/ deregulation —> plane crashes —> blaming Woke echoes the GOP’s same approach to the derailment.
Trump Said East Palestine Wouldn't Be 'Forgotten.' Will He Remember?
In the two years after the trail derailment, Norfolk Southern pumped $5 million into Washington, leaving much-needed reform a pipe dream.

Important story that echoes something I’m hearing from sources too — the freeze-out for big climate projects and small-scale waste projects alike appears to still be on
A Friday morning reminder — the federal funding freeze continues. The Trump administration is still withholding energy and climate funds mandated by Congress in the IRA and IIJA and due to recipients under legally binding contracts. Here's the latest: www.canarymedia.com/articles/pol... #energysky
Trump admin’s attack on clean energy and climate funding continues
Federal funding portals are down. Binding contracts are at risk. And a legal battle is sure to come. What happens next?

Trump’s initial executive orders show that Russ Vought, the Project 2025 co-author and the likely head of the White House budget office, is moving to control huge swaths of energy & climate policy across the federal government. My story:
Russ Vought Makes a Power Play for Trump’s Energy Policy
The president’s early executive orders give the once-and-future head of the Office of Management and Budget far-reaching powers.

If you REALLY don't want people to drive to JFK Airport, wouldn't you discount the insane $8.50 AirTrain fare for people who take mass transit, not the people who drive to an AirTrain station? 🤔
