JUDGE Blocks Trump's Taxpayer-Funded Ads After DNC Suit

Picture the Democratic National Committee, an outfit that has never met a TV camera it didn't try to hug, marching into court to stop somebody else's commercials. The Blaze reports U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan ruled for the DNC and barred the administration from creating or airing ads with taxpayer funds. Bloomberg says it's a fresh block expanding an earlier temporary ban on the spots, which it describes as praising the president. The Blaze estimates the campaign at $20 million. The White House has responded, though the details aren't spelled out, and it's unclear whether the block is permanent. A political party sues to shut off commercials. That's not a policy. That's a cry for help with a press release.
