@MarioNawf ACTIVIST JUDGE WHO BLOCKED TRUMP’S SPENDING FREEZE HAS HIDDEN MONEY TIES Federal Judge John McConnell failed to disclose his role at Crossroads Rhode Island while ruling against Trump’s spending freeze. His non-profit received $128M in government funding during his 18-year board tenure, including $42M from 2020-2023. Rhode Island, a plaintiff in the case, already sent his organization $2.9M in 2025. The judge ordered federal funds to keep flowing to states—and coincidentally, to his own non-profit. Federal law requires judges to recuse themselves when their impartiality might be questioned. Wonder why he didn’t. Source:
