Trump Demands Supreme Court Rein In Lawless Leftwing Tyrants in Judge's Robes

Leftwing hacks have been overstepping their bounds and elevating themselves to Acting President:

Judge blocks Trump from revoking clearances of firm connected to Russia-collusion hoax

A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order against the Trump administration, blocking enforcement of key provisions in an executive order that would penalize Perkins Coie, the Democratic-linked law firm involved in the discredited Russia-collusion narrative during President Trump's first term.

Key Details:

Judge Beryl Howell, an Obama appointee, ruled that Trump's order could cause "irreparable harm" to Perkins Coie, violating its First, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment rights.

The executive order sought to revoke the firm's security clearances, prohibit government contracts with entities using its services, and restrict employee access to federal buildings.

Perkins Coie, which once employed Democratic election attorney Marc Elias, was instrumental in hiring Fusion GPS, the firm behind the debunked Steele dossier.

Thousands of fired federal workers must be rehired immediately, judge rules

A federal judge on Thursday ordered federal agencies to rehire tens of thousands of probationary employees who were fired amid President Donald Trump's turbulent effort to drastically shrink the federal bureaucracy.

U.S. District Judge William Alsup described the mass firings as a "sham" strategy by the government's central human resources office to sidestep legal requirements for reducing the federal workforce.

Alsup, a San Francisco-based appointee of President Bill Clinton, ordered the Defense, Treasury, Energy, Interior, Agriculture and Veterans Affairs departments to "immediately" offer all fired probationary employees their jobs back. The Office of Personnel Management, the judge said, had made an "unlawful" decision to terminate them.

Federal judges issued 15 nationwide injunctions against the Trump Administration in February alone. In just one month, that's more nationwide injunctions than there were issued for the first three YEARS of the Biden Administration.

District court judges are out of control.

SCOTUS must rein them in.

Trump is demanding that the Supreme Court rein in the hacks.

The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to rein in lower court rulings that have prevented a ban on birthright citizenship from taking effect nationwide.

Judges should not be able to govern "the whole Nation" from their courtrooms by issuing universal injunctions that block policies across the entire country while litigation is pending, the administration told the justices in its application.

"District courts have issued more universal injunctions and TROs [temporary restraining orders] during February 2025 alone than through the first three years of the Biden Administration," the application states. "That sharp rise in universal injunctions stops the Executive Branch from performing its constitutional functions before any courts fully examine the merits of those actions, and threatens to swamp this Court's emergency docket."

The Trump administration is not yet asking the justices to weigh in directly on the constitutionality of President Donald Trump's executive order banning birthright citizenship. Instead, they ask the justices to limit the common practice of universal injunctions that "compromise the Executive Branch's ability to carry out its functions, as administrations of both parties have explained."

"These cases--which involve challenges to the President's January 20, 2025 Executive Order concerning birthright citizenship--raise important constitutional questions with major ramifications for securing the border," wrote. "But at this stage, the government comes to this Court with a 'modest' request: while the parties litigate weighty merits questions, the Court should 'restrict the scope' of multiple preliminary injunctions that 'purpor[t] to cover every person * * * in the country,' limiting those injunctions to parties actually within the courts' power."

The Trump administration's requests arise out of orders blocking the ban in Maryland, Washington and Massachusetts. Trump's executive order prevents children born to parents either illegally in the U.S. or on temporary visas from gaining automatic citizenship.

Several Supreme Court justices have previously expressed disapproval of lower court's use of nationwide injunctions. Justice Neil Gorsuch criticized what he called "a rash of universal injunctions" during oral arguments in a case on the abortion pill in 2024.

🚨The Trump Administration is taking the fight to end universal injunctions to the Supreme Court.

"...[T]he government comes to this Court with a 'modest' request: while the parties litigate weighty merits questions, the Court should 'restrict the scope' of multiple preliminary injunctions that 'purpor[t] to cover every person * * * in the country,' limiting those injunctions to parties actually within the courts' power."

"...Universal injunctions have reached epidemic proportions since the start of the current Administration. Courts have graduated from universal preliminary injunctions to universal temporary restraining orders, from universal equitable relief to universal monetary remedies, and from governing the whole Nation to governing the whole world."

..."This Court should declare that enough is enough before district courts’ burgeoning reliance on universal injunctions becomes further entrenched."
