[QUOTE="Doublestandards, post: 6170231, member: 110123"] The list was blocked because the Trump administration didn’t file the necessary paperwork to get it done “ Judge Paul Engelmayer of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York says the government’s motion was too vague and lacked necessary legal justifications. The court ordered Bondi to submit a detailed memorandum of law by July 29.
