D.C. District Court Chief Judge Beryl A. Howell granted a preliminary injunction blocking the recent Trump administration rule on food stamps, which the USDA estimates would have reduced federal spending by $7.9 billion over five years and gradually weaned 755,000 people off the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), the government program in charge of food stamps.
“Especially now, as a global pandemic poses widespread health risks, guaranteeing that government officials at both the federal and state levels have flexibility to address the nutritional needs of residents and ensure their well-being through programs like SNAP, is essential,” Howell wrote in her ruling, according to HuffPost.
And yet, Congress is in the process of passing legislation to deal with the current crisis. Federal judges are trained to stay out of current, political questions, precisely because this is a job for Congress. Judges are poorly situated to know what needs to be in legislation.
This is yet another example of an incompetent judge. There is such a thing as an Obama judge. This is also why McConnell has been so successful at getting judges confirmed: he is not pushing ideologues, just provably competent judges.
No shit, talk to Brazilians, they will all tell you their mostly-commie appointed supreme court (literally by a party called the "workers party") constantly make shit up out of thin air. Communists do not care for the rule of law, they are naturally tyrannical anywhere in the world and America is not an exception. Keeping them out is absolutely vital to any free country that wants to remain free.

"I'm a judge. The law is what I feel like it is today, because of whatever the fuck I feel like today, blah blah blah."
This is NOT how one engenders faith in the rule of law, but it IS how one degrades faith in the rule of men.
At some point, one might stop to ask why it seems like so many Obama-appointed judges feel that they can dictate the law rather than just enforce it.
They're communists.

Cause no one has smacked their peepees and rub their noses in it. Why not legislate from the bench if there aren’t consequences?
Clearly outlined in the Constitution! /s
