A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from airing three taxpayer-funded ads — titled '$5,000 to Americans', 'Every Democrat Voted Against No Tax on Tips', and 'Cost of Socialism' — ordering their removal from government websites for 14 days. The suit alleged the ads violated restrictions on using public funds for propaganda; White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis called it 'a lawless order to stop the administration from sharing patriotic videos'.
