Indian-origin Judge Arun Subramanian Blocks Trump's $10 Billion Fund Freeze; Elon Musk Reacts

• Indian-origin federal judge Arun Subramanian issued a 14-day interim stay on the Trump administration's order to freeze $10 billion in child care and social services funds.
• The funds were allocated to five Democrat-governed states like New York and California, which the Trump administration alleged were being misused for undocumented immigrants.
• Judge Subramanian, appointed by Biden, argued that stopping the funds would devastate poor families and maintaining the status quo was necessary.
• Elon Musk criticized the decision on X, calling Subramanian an 'activist in judge's robes' and accusing him of promoting fraud, stating it threatens democracy.
• New York Attorney General Letitia James welcomed the decision, calling Trump's action a political vendetta, while the Trump administration plans to appeal.
