British journalist Piaghan Morgan said President Donald Trump doesn’t have the authority to cut government funds like the US International Development Agency, and at his show with liberal streamer Destiny on Friday We discussed it.
Since the announcement of a USAID restructuring and the transfer of Secretary of State Marco Rubio to leadership, Democrats have opposed Trump and Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) leader Elon Musk. In “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Destiny said Trump and Doge’s actions were illegal, adding that the president cannot make a “unilateral decision” based on “what he likes or dislikes.”
“Well, actually, wait,” Morgan said. “Look, that’s not really true. He has the right to do this.”
But Fate said he tried to suspend Morgan before he retreated, and challenged the court when Democrats, like New York State Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, did not control the party’s favor. (Related: “The Power of Supergenius”: Doge reportedly knocks on the IRS door)
“There’s a legal challenge. Trump revealed it yesterday in his oval office. He’ll accept what the judge said,” Morgan said. “Now, I remember Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, when a judge ruled in court on abortion drugs. For example, she said Democrats were the ones who said that judge. He said he should not accept what he has ruled.”
“So why is it one rule for Democrats that they can ignore the judge’s orders with immunity? But when President Trump says, “If you want to challenge this, it’s fine. I’m a judge’s decision. I’ll accept it,” Morgan said. “Isn’t that democracy?”

Destiny then returned to Morgan to ask what year Ocasio-Cortez served as president. Morgan asked why it was a related question. The two continued to discuss Ocasio-Cortez’s position in the government, claiming that her fate was not in the same branch as Trump.
Morgan highlighted how former President Joe Biden tried to review the U.S. Supreme Court student loan ruling as it was one of his pledges during the 2020 campaign.
“President Biden did the same thing more than student loans,” Morgan said. “When the Supreme Court closed him on one thing, he took another path. It wasn’t the same. President Biden did not ignore the temporary restraining order.”
“I just said that other people said it over and over again. Sorry, the pier-Vance and others revealed it over and over again. They cited Andrew Jackson’s quote, ” Well, we should just resist the judiciary.” It is not part of law and order. What management says is not part of checks and balance. “Well, I don’t care what the judge says. We just do everything,” Destiny said.
A few days before his departure, the Biden administration announced on January 13 that it had decided to allow 150,000 student loan debts, bringing the total amount to the $183.6 billion accumulated by more than 5 million borrowers.
Trump said he would follow the judge’s orders, but Democrats have filed dozens of lawsuits against his administration’s plan to cut down government waste. On Wednesday, US District Judge George O’Toole Jr. dissolved the temporary freeze, allowing Trump to continue providing payments for federal employees.
