'Visceral fury': Trump 'hitting a wall' as judges rush to block his executive orders - eviltoast

Summary

Judges across the U.S. are blocking Trump’s aggressive executive orders, with some rulings expressing deep frustration.

A Trump-appointed judge halted his attempt to place 2,200 USAID employees on leave, while another blocked Elon Musk’s team from accessing Treasury records.

A Reagan-appointed judge condemned Trump’s disregard for the rule of law in a ruling against his birthright citizenship plan.

These legal setbacks are forcing federal agencies to reveal more details and raising concerns over Trump’s expansive use of executive power.

    Good. Let the courts resist him on all fronts for what he is; a fascist. The more legal material the Democrats have laid at their feet; the faster they can use it to rebuild and build the case against Trump to convict him of base tyranny, treachery and treason.

    Trump deserves to rot in solitude in our worst federal prison until he expires naturally.

      it would be unconstitutional to convict him of treason and give him life imprisonment. the constitution says, in no uncertain terms, that the punishment for his crimes is death by hanging

        If the constitution decrees it; sure. I think death is too kind though. But it might be the only option; seeing as how the next GOP idiot who takes the Oval Office will probably pardon him out of it.

        That is our worst federal prison by far; and it’s no longer only a military-prison; with the immigrants stopping there. :)
