BOSTON (AP) — A federal judge on Thursday struck down a 2025 order from the Trump administration that cut hundreds of millions of dollars in teacher-training money.

U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley in Massachusetts wrote in her order that the Education Department’s directive violated federal law and was arbitrary and capricious.

Good. The federal govt has no constitutional authority to be involved with education.

So let me get this straight you believe if the Constitution doesnt specifically say the federal govt cant do something then its ok for the federal govt to do it?

Yes. As the Constitution itself explicitly state. And the history of the Supreme Court has always upheld this principle.

So, let's see...

I don't think any of the journalists actually read the court's findings and order.

When all is said and done, grants to fund certain educational programs were terminated. Today’s holding indicates this Court lacks any power to bring these grants back. However, Plaintiffs are not without remedy. If this Court finds Defendants’ actions were unlawful under the APA and the Constitution, the grantees in Plaintiff States can file suit in the Court of Federal Claims to request their money damages under the contract. This two-track litigation framework preserves binding authority and upholds the systemic stability intended by the doctrine of stare decisis. Whether or not Plaintiffs are successful on the merits of their claims will be taken up later in this litigation. For the foregoing reasons, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss [Dkt. 128] is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. The Court lacks jurisdiction over Plaintiff States’ terminated grants. The Court retains jurisdiction over all remaining claims.


That's it in whole. My reading of that is that the grants are gone, the states lost, but they are free to continue with the case to the Court of Appeals.

I see that too. She has little experience in law, and her court order is flimsy as hell. The Supreme Court already struck down nationwide injunctions by district courts of the sort she's purveying here.

That she is in essence making hiring and firing decisions along with staffing levels up from thin air for FEMA doesn't help anything.
