Thanks to @lastweektonight1.bsky.social for featuring the #YesOnProp139 campaign as a “silver lining” this election cycle. I’m so proud of the work we did.

NEW: A federal judge has once again blocked the Trump admin from enforcing a budget law provision "defunding" Planned Parenthood—this time in response to suit from 22 states and Washington DC. HOWEVER judge pauses injunction for 7 days to allow HHS to appeal

Fed’n of Am., Inc. v. Kennedy, Civil Action 1:25-cv-11913 (the “Planned Parenthood
litigation”). In the action now before the court, twenty-two States2 and the District of Columbia
(the “Plaintiff States”) claim, inter alia, that Section 71113 failed to provide clear notice to States
that participate in the joint Federal / State Medicaid program, as required by the Spending Clause of the United States Constitution.
Pending before the court is the Plaintiff States’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [Doc.
No. 60] seeking to enjoin Defendants from implementing or enforcing Section 71113 pending a final ruling on the merits of this case. For the reasons stated infra, **Plaintiff States have standing to bring this action and have demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success on their claim that Section 71113 fails to provide clear notice as required by the Spending Clause of the United States Constitution. Accordingly, the Plaintiff States’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [Doc.
No. 60] is GRANTED,** as set forth below.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4fdfjfnhhyeo4hsmoxpeazsg/bafkreiavodz243ugugcwghxcaiho4zetcy3rl64mb7ghuyu6wbk5fwgtwq@jpeg)
![screenshot 2/2:
Here, Defendants have not shown that they are likely to prevail on appeal where Plaintiff
States, as discussed at length above, have shown a substantial likelihood of success on their
Spending Clause claim. Accordingly, a stay pending appeal is DENIED.
**To assist in orderly review, however, the court finds it prudent to administratively stay the injunctive relief granted herein for seven days, to allow Defendants, if they so choose, to file an appeal and seek a stay on the merits in the appellate court.** See Fed. R. Civ. P. 62(d).
V. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiff States’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [Doc. No. 60] is GRANTED.
It is hereby ORDERED that:
1. Defendants, their agents, employees, appointees, successors, and anyone acting in
concert or participation with Defendants are hereby enjoined from enforcing, retroactively
enforcing, or otherwise applying the provisions of Section 71113 of “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14,” against the Plaintiff States.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4fdfjfnhhyeo4hsmoxpeazsg/bafkreietkv5nv6b3vkq5odfpfjaoio6h75tgm3fwy6wckakiitjhifc5pe@jpeg)

I was just remembering how the AZ SOS—a Dem—had bomb sniffing dogs at our signature drop for Prop 139. Guess he needed protection from our little grandma volunteers.
It was a time.

You know what’s funny? In the past few weeks, I’ve spent so much time with loved ones and I haven’t bothered to take any pictures.
I don’t regret it.
Social media makes you feel like you have to capture every moment. But for who, exactly? Not me. I was there. 🤷🏾♀️

We went from a country that defended others from being invaded for their natural resources, to a country that is now threatening to invade others for their natural resources.

My very first claim to fame was being in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade when I was in the 7th grade. We rehearsed all day. We stalked NKOTB in our hotel at night. We froze our toes off lining up at 4am. A time was had. Ok? youtu.be/VEJOtHfN5UY?...

Immigrants commit “crimes” at a far lower rate than that of citizens. Crime is not a feature of immigration. I wish Dems would just say that and keep it moving instead of this “tough on the border” nonsense they keep feeding us.

Anytime an Internet stranger attempts (and fails) to argue with me about politics, the Universe reminds me that I’m badass. Today, the AG thanked me for defending her campaign on a Sunday show and one of the Governor’s attorneys told a group that I’m “famous.”
And all I did was walk into a room. 😉

Brace yourself for our conversation about Him and the strays for days that come with that convo.

It is funny how he talks about what a big tent they are when in fact they only have room for people who like nazis and hate free bus fare.

Well, since we’re playing this game, are you new? I believe this way because of the actual work I’ve done both inside and outside of the Party. But go ahead chasing waterfalls, I guess.

If you keep believing this way, then you’re always going to be exhausted & nothing will get done. Once you set an example that their place IS NOT imminent & they can AND WILL be ousted, they’ll get their shit together & toe the line.
Stop acting like they have all the power. They don’t.

If you believe that Raskin is the only one thinking this way, then sure. However, that is not the case. He’s just the one testing the strategy. It’s infinitely more difficult to root out every Dem committed to stymying any progress. There are too many of them.

If there’s room for MTG, then there is no longer room for me or members of any other group she’s targeted, harassed, and defamed in her relatively short political career.
Dems are really addicted to losing. Must be a humiliation kink.

If you believe his supporters will jump ship after seeing the files, you may want to adjust your expectations. For his most ardent fans, the cruelty is a feature, not a bug. Those Q standards only apply to everyone else. Otherwise, they’d have weeded out the sex pests in their own ranks long ago.
