10:03Now PlayingAttorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian expose how Trump administration officials under Kari Lake defied a federal judge's preliminary injunction by attempting to fire 532 Voice of America employees, prompting Judge Royce Lamberth to rule he "no longer harbors any doubt" that defendants lack any plan to comply with court orders. The hosts reveal how VOA, founded in 1942 to combat Nazi propaganda and mandated by the 1994 International Broadcasting Act to serve as a "consistently reliable and authoritative source of news" in 49 languages, had its operations completely shut down after Trump's executive order calling it the "Voice of Radical America." They explain how Judge Lamberth—a Reagan appointee—accused Lake of "brazen disinterest" in statutory duties and warned her conduct "readily supports contempt proceedings" after she eliminated 90% of the workforce and shut down mandated language services despite Congress appropriating $875 million for the agency. The attorneys warn this represents Trump's pattern of ignoring judicial orders and destroying institutions designed to spread American democracy and counter authoritarianism.
