司法部周一晚间道歉称，一则有争议的特朗普总统广告在法院支持政府监督组织的请求并暂时封禁该广告后仍继续播放。
The Department of Justice apologized late Monday that a controversial ad featuring President Trump continued to run after a court sided with government watchdog groups in temporarily blocking the ads.
公共事业组织（Common Cause）及其他团体联盟（包括一名国会候选人）曾就该广告提起诉讼，称特朗普政府利用联邦资金制作的该广告实际上是一项竞选支出，违反了法律。
Common Cause and a coalition of other groups, including a candidate for congressional office, sued over the ads, arguing the Trump administration broke the law in using federal funds for an ad that amounts to a campaign expenditure.
原告在周日晚间获得了临时限制令，但周一向法院投诉称该广告尚未下架。
The plaintiffs won a temporary restraining order in the case late Sunday, but complained to the court that the ad was not yet off the airwaves by Monday.
“签署人向法院和原告致歉，”司法部律师在向法院提交的更新文件中写道。
“The undersigned apologizes to the Court and the plaintiffs,” a Justice Department attorney wrote in an update to the court.
该律师表示，一些联邦雇员直到周一假日才看到法官的命令，导致取消已购买的广告时段出现延迟。
The attorney said some federal workers did not see the judge's order until the holiday Monday, leading to a delay in canceling the already-purchased ad time.
“被告理解，他们被禁止使用、拨付或转移拨给国土安全部的资金，用于开发、制作、传播、安排、分发、出版或播放有争议的广告；被告理解，他们应取消或促使取消任何用于播放或传播有争议广告的时段、安排、预订或其他安排，”律师写道。
“Defendants understand that they are enjoined from using, disbursing, or transferring funds appropriated to the Department of Homeland Security to develop, create, disseminate, place, distribute, publish, or air the challenged s; Defendants understand that they shall cancel or cause to be cancelled any slot, placement, reservation, or arrangement for the airing or dissemination of the challenged s," the attorney wrote.
民主党全国委员会（DNC）也就该广告提起诉讼，该广告包含大量特朗普总统的图片，图片上叠加了他近期演讲中的言论，这些言论贬低共产主义，同时他也为自己争取了历史上最大的减税政策赢得了肯定。
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has also sued over the ads, which show numerous images of the president overlaid by quotes from recent speeches demeaning communism while also crediting himself for the largest tax cuts in history.
特朗普因这些广告而面临日益增加的批评，其中一则广告使用了艺术家JMSN的歌曲《Love Me》，而JMSN表示该歌曲是未经他许可使用的。
Trump has faced mounting criticism over the ads, one of which features the song “Love Me” by artist JMSN, who said the song was used without his permission.
