Jennings said he had “completely opposed” to a judge who has the authority to allow funding the federal program during the ongoing lawsuit on the matter.
Former GOP aide Jennings has named himself on CNN, defending President Trump's agenda and defending sparring with various guests and hosts on the network. It was speculated that he was considered a White House press secretary.
Trump was treated to a series of set-offs in court in the early weeks of his second term, and Democrats are increasingly sounding warnings that the White House simply ignores those rulings.
