Has congress passed a law superseding or eliminating the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961?
Has the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional?
Then why are journalists reporting that Trump and Musk are "shutting down" USAID. They are not authorized to do so.

This is why you don’t surrender in advance.
The flagrantly illegal can be stopped.
It sucks that it’s falling to ordinary workers, not, say, the police, or Chuck Schumer with an NBC camera crew manning the line.
You know, the ppl whose job this actually is.
But they can be stopped.

Dear journalists: Now, more than ever,
✨The lawyers need to see the actual court filings.✨
Yes, I know you summarized. Yes, I know your non-attorney readers don't care.
But we need to see the documents. The actual documents.
If you're pulling docs from PACER, use RECAP & give us a link. Please.
