Judge chastises Trump admin re: VOA

The judge who partially blocked Trump's bid to dismantle Voice of America doesn't think the DOJ is taking its responsibility to keep him informed seriously. During a hearing yesterday, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth asked why he hadn't been informed of Friday's layoffs, which, as I reported on Friday, sharply reduced total headcount, even as litigation is ongoing.

A DOJ attorney claimed the department "has been complying with his April 22 order 'in good faith'" and Lamberth replied, "I don't think so," the AP's Michael Kunzelman reports. "The judge gave the administration until Friday to file a written update on what it is doing at VOA..."


Do something positive.
