That means they effectively allowed the firing. It’s not like people can stand around indefinitely waiting for the courts nor can the agency.
Its letting Trump get what he wants without actually needing to make a real judgment on the legality. At this point the law seems to barely mean anything.
Right, but in reference to “undoing the ruling” later, there is a misconception of what this ruling is. It’s quite common for a higher court to either enjoin or not enjoin something while a lawsuit over that thing makes its way through the courts. That’s all this is. It’s not the end of her fight, her case will move forward. And the Trump admin has already lost cases like this. It sucks for her personally, and we all agree the ruling should have been that she will stay in her position until the suit has been ruled on, but it’s not at all an unusual legal maneuver.
This has been the playbook of the conservative majority on the Supreme Court to undermine our democracy. Lower courts have consistently been applying injunctions/stays that would minimize disruptions and/or infringements on rights, then the Supreme Court overturn those injunctions/stays without providing a reason (cause usually there isn’t a good one). This gives the administration the win becuase by the time the law might catch up the damage is done.
A great example is the administration’s attempt to kill certain agencies. The executive does not have the power to do so, but by waiting around and kneecaping the agencies, the administration gets what it wants.
Whats more obvious is that the court is obviously afraid to come out and provide reasoning for its decisions. It’s all closed door-like rulings because there isn’t much good legal reasoning or defense.
