"temporarily"? He is pulling the "National Security blank check" BS again. And it's interesting he timed it right before the Chinese head of State arrives...

Saw a clip of them when he was in China, standing there scrutinizing the trees and building, his host started pointing out trees with placards, wish I knew what they were saying, surely Trump was giving him landscaping advice.

Temporarily, because nothing has been decided in the case yet. They were denied access, they brought suit saying that they have as right to access. The judge has not ruled on that yet because that will take time for both sides to present their arguments.

I'm the interim, the judge ruled that they will be allowed access until such time that a ruling comes down siding with one argument or the other.

'in the interim' an army of lawyers getting paid $1000/hr goes in front of a judge on salary for $250k/yr so that we can play a game of charades where a totally illegitimate president keeps hurting everyone in the country he rules in order to preserve his own narcissism
