Won’t Follow Court Orders:

Trump blew past deadline to halt running taxpayer-funded campaign-style ads

A coalition of nonprofits had sued, calling the ads “propaganda.” The president has said campaign funds would be used to pay for the commercials going forward.

A federal judge issued a temporary order Sunday blocking the Trump administration from airing taxpayer-funded campaign-styletelevision commercials. But the administration blew past a Sunday evening deadline and ran two of the ads into the early hours of Monday, advertising data from AdImpact shows.

U.S. District Judge Jennifer L. Rochon in Manhattan wrote in an order Sunday that the administration must “cancel or cause to be cancelled” any ads from airing or dissemination, including those that were scheduled to air Sunday evening.

Her decision came after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said in a court filing Saturday that the ads would “not continue” past Sunday and that it had no plans to purchase additional ad spaces past that date. President Donald Trump said earlier that campaign funds would be used to pay for the ads going forward.

A federal judge orders the Trump administration to halt work on a historic D.C. golf course until Oct. 26, pending court action.
