Emil Bove to Danielle Sassoon: "Your resignation is accepted. This decision is based on your choice to continue pursuing a politically motivated prosecution despite an express instruction to dismiss the case."

So much more here static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...
Ms. Sassoon: In response to your refusal to comply with my instruction to dismiss the prosecution of Mayor Eric Adams, I write to notify you of the following: First, your resignation is accepted. This decision is based on your choice to continue pursuing a politically motivated prosecution despite an express instruction to dismiss the case. You lost sight of the oath that you took when you started at the Department of Justice by suggesting that you retain discretion to interpret the Constitution in a manner inconsistent with the policies of a democratically elected President and a Senate-confirmed Attorney General. Second, you indicated that the prosecution team is aware of your communications with the Justice Department, is supportive of your approach, and is unwilling to comply with the order to dismiss the case. Accordingly, the AUSAs principally responsible for this case are being placed on off-duty, administrative leave' pending investigations by the Office of the Attorney General? and the Office of Professional Responsibility, both of which will also evaluate your conduct.

NEW: Judge McConnell refuses to lift his stay on the Trump funding freeze while the administration appeals to the First Circuit storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
any irreparable harm to the Plaintiffs. Nothing suggests that the Defendants will not resume operating under the OMB Directive and the incorporated EOs if the Court stays the TRO. Thus, the Court finds that the risk of irreparable harm to Plaintiffs if the blanket categorical and unauthorized impoundment of funds resumes, paired with the public's interest in maintaining the status quo pending a full hearing, weighs against issuing a stay on the Court's Orders pending appeal. The Court issued a TRO to temporarily continue the status quo, by prohibiting the freezing of funds Congress appropriated and authorized. The TRO is intended to ensure that appropriated funds are paid in accordance with its respective Congressional authorizing statute-i.e., a stand-still order until the Court can quickly take evidence, hear argument, and rule on this critical issue. Therefore, the Court DENIES the Defendants' Motion to Stay the Court's Orders pending appeal. ECF No. 100. IT IS SO ORDERED. s/John J. McConnell, Jr. John J. McConnell, Jr. Chief Judge United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island February 12, 2025

Trump isn’t just saying the quiet part out loud, he is screaming it from the roof tops.

NEW: The board president of a small WV nonprofit says they haven't received their HHS funding since the Trump/Musk budget freeze. They had to lay off 3 of 5 employees on Friday. An 86-yr-old woman is counting on them to take her dialysis tomorrow. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
9. I understand from our Office Manager, however, that as of Sunday, February 2, no funds have been deposited to our bank account. We have checked our accounts multiple times a day since January 29, but no funds have been transmitted. We have received no information or explanation from the Administration for Community Living about the interruption in funds. 10. In short: we have received no federal funds since the OMB Freeze Memo was issued. Our Center had enough money to meet payroll on Friday, January 31, and to cover outstanding bills. But we did not have enough money on hand to cover another two-week pay period at full staffing. 11. Thus, on Friday, January 31, the Board of Directors voted to lay off three of our five employees and drastically reduce services to our customers. This presented a dire situation for our customers, who have immediate needs. 12. For example, on Monday, February 3, we are scheduled to take an 86-year-old woman to dialysis treatments (which we do for her every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). Our agency is her only way to get to these life-sustaining appointments.
