Trump regime rescinds order attempting to freeze federal aid spending

Source: NBC News

“President Donald Trump’s administration on Wednesday rescinded a widespread freeze most federal grants and loans just one day after it was issued amidst significant criticism, according to a memo a source provided to NBC News. A senior administration official confirmed the order was rescinded Wednesday. The order, which sparked chaos and confusion across Washington, was temporarily halted by a federal district judge Tuesday evening. … The memo said the pause would allow the administration to review which programs were ‘consistent’ with Trump’s agenda. Social Security, Medicare and direct payments to individuals were not supposed to be affected, but because the memo was so vaguely worded, it wasn’t clear exactly which aid would be halted.” (01/29/25)
