and what if the Supreme Court sides with USAID? Do you tell them to fuck off too? Are they also compromised?

If that happens, the executive branch is officially run by the courts and we live in a secular version of a neo-Kritocracy.
I think our first real constitutional crisis in decades will unfold if the powers of the executive branch are taken over by the judiciary. It’s not like it hasn’t happened before in the modern era.
Brazil is very close to it now.

Arricle II couldn’t be more specific on executive power. If a single federal judge wants to supersede it, at the very least they shouldn’t have clear conflicts that should call for their recusal from stopping an otherwise legal act by the person in charge of the executive branch.
Desperate partisans trying to hold onto the power they lost in an election, and they are using compromised judges to do so after shopping districts for them.

Of course not. It’s the Supreme Court for a reason.

that's not what they would say at all. the argument has never been allowing it to do what it wants. it's that Trump just shutting it down on his own is unconstitutional.
They could be.
DOGE and Kash will figure that out.

This is SoccerDork’s idea of debate.
Where did I say they are corrupt? If SCOTUS were to rule in favor of the decision, it’s clearly unconstitutional and we’re at a new place in how the executive branch is run. Article II would be illegitimate according to the highest court in the country.
Thanks for again showing what a lightweight dipshit you are, though. Angry and stupid.

Is that Article 69 in the Constitution?
It would be nice if the judge wasn't as dumb as a fucking rock. Or our leftists

Ho-Lee Shit, how could a judge be so dumb as to not double-check the assertions in their ruling? Before I was kicked out of law school, even I knew that.
Hey, dumbass. Where were you when biden defied the Supreme Court?
Can you be a bigger hypocritical and dishonest piece of shit?

Actually I am reading through the 68 page ruling and the judge doesn't say that. He acknowledges JFK created USAID but that in 1998, "Congress specifically established USAID in statute through the Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act (FARRA) of 1998."
He then talks about what the Executive Office and Secretary of State could do under FARRA but also says, at the bottom of page 43, "Since FARRA, Congress has not granted the President direct statutory authority to reorganize, reconstitute, consolidate, or abolish the agency. Indeed, Congress has rejected efforts to eliminate USAID outright."
If the White House appeals this to the Supreme Court, I see them losing. It's a shame but if the White House drags this out long enough, most of the grifters will likely move on to more productive jobs that don't rely on American taxpayers to fund their lifestyles. Then USAID could be a leaner, meaner org with only those who love the USA remaining. Instead of a spending $40 billion per year, perhaps spending only $5 billion would force the org to actually account for where the money is going.
That's because Congress is stealing all the money. End this shit show! We control Congress. Those who vote against it is the enemy.
Congress is part of the problem
A big part
They just voted to keep it in a CR
I don't think the executive branch is stopped from cutting it to the bone which is what they will do
Trump teed it up with DOGE and congress whiffed

The big issue is that the Constitution does not grant executive power to Congress. Congress has spending authority but the administrative authority is with the President. Leftards wish to believe that a government agency can run independently and have no outside supervision. There is no Constitutional authority for this.
