Speaker Johnson Refuses To Say Whether Trump Should Comply With Court Orders
Briefly

Speaker Mike Johnson expressed uncertainty over whether President Trump should comply with court orders. The administration faces multiple lawsuits related to Trump's actions, including the dismissal of federal employees and freezing of funds. Critics, including Elon Musk and other conservatives, argue the administration has the right to disregard court rulings. A federal judge has mandated the halt of Musk's access to the Treasury's payment system due to potential harm, further complicating the administration's legal troubles and its response to court directives.
Well, look, there are appellate processes and all of that. I haven't followed the latest on the litigation, but obviously we have systems that have to work. We're fully supportive of what the DOGE effort is doing and what the president is doing.
The judge also ordered that Musk delete records he had downloaded at the department, reflecting concerns over the potential for irreparable harm.
