Federal Judge Stuns Trump by Blocking Agency Closures Amid Criticism Over Public Services
A federal judge has blocked President Trump's attempt to dismantle three federal agencies assisting public resources, minority businesses, and mediation services. The agencies were scheduled to be shut down under the current administration.

A federal judge has blocked President Donald Trump's administration from dismantling three federal agencies that provide assistance to public resources, minority businesses, and mediation services. The agencies, which are currently being targeted by the Trump administration for closure, will remain operational pending further review. The decision was made in response to a lawsuit filed by Democratic lawmakers who argued that the shutdowns would harm vulnerable communities and undermine the administration's own goals. The judge's ruling is seen as a major victory for Democrats who have been fighting against the administration's efforts to dismantle these agencies.
