Trump commercial railing against his enemies kept airing after court blocked it
US attorney apologized to court, said government has stopped running Trump ads.
Despite a judge’s order blocking them, Trump commercials funded by the US government continued to air on television the day after the ruling. The most prominent ad featured Trump attacking his critics and promising to liberate America from the villains he deemed responsible. Other ads showcased Trump’s accomplishments during his presidency, extolled the greatness of the United States, and addressed topics like the Iran war and the capture of Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro.
US District Judge Jennifer Rochon issued a temporary restraining order on Sunday, October 11, which came into effect at 6:45 pm that evening. The order demanded the cancellation of the ads, including all scheduled placements for October 11, 2026.
