42% : " Last month, the plaintiffs -- two government employees unions led by the American Foreign Service Association, the exclusive representative for the U.S. Foreign Service -- filed a lawsuit accusing Trump and agency heads of "unlawful actions" that "exceed presidential authority and usurp legislative authority conferred upon Congress by the Constitution, in violation of the separation of powers.
40% : " In their motion, the unions suing Trump said Carr's email claimed the USAID was "clearing [its] classified safes and personnel documents" from the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., starting at 9:30 am Tuesday.
23% : The Trump administration was ordered Monday to cough up nearly $2 billion in foreign aid that it owes for existing contracts and grants authorized by Congress, with a federal judge ruling that it was unconstitutional of Trump to "unlawfully impound funds" earlier this year through his USAID freeze.
