Trump administration says (https://bsky.app/profile/joshgerstein.bsky.social/post/3lk5bawq2ec2s) acting OPM chief Charles Ezell won't show up at hearing in San Francisco Thursday where judge ordered him to testify. DOJ is also withdrawing his declaration in the suit over mass firing of probationary employees. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Trump Officials Are ‘Pretending’ a Judge Didn’t Bar His Anti-Diversity Orders


A judge blocked the administration from forcing organizations to accept anti-diversity contract terms. Trump officials haven’t let them know

DOJ submitted a declaration to federal district court then refused an order to appear to be cross-examined, then withdrew the declaration, then submitted another one that was basically identical.

Judge Alsup was suitably pissed off by that. He issued a TRO and held that OPM exceeded its authority. He also ordered six US agencies to rehire thousands of people who, in his opinion, had been fired illegally.


A federal judge on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to reinstate thousands of probationary employees fired last month from a half dozen federal agencies.

U.S. District Judge William Alsup ordered the Trump administration to reinstate employees at the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, the Department of Interior and the Department of Treasury.

Trump asks Supreme Court to curb judges’ power to block policies nationwide
The emergency appeal comes in the battle over birthright citizenship — but it could have ripple effects in cases challenging many aspects of Trump’s agenda.

President Donald Trump is asking the Supreme Court to eliminate a key tool that lower courts have used to block various aspects of his agenda.

In an emergency appeal Thursday, Trump asked the justices to rein in or shelve three nationwide injunctions lower-court judges have issued against his bid to end birthright citizenship. But his request could have repercussions far beyond the debate over the controversial citizenship plan.

Judges have used nationwide injunctions to hobble many of Trump’s early moves, from his bid to end “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” programs to his cuts to federal medical research.

But Trump’s acting solicitor general, Sarah Harris, argued to the Supreme Court that federal district judges have no authority to issue sweeping orders that block policies nationwide. Instead, Harris suggested, an injunction should apply only in the geographic district where the judge is located — or only to the specific individuals or groups that sued.

“Years of experience have shown that the Executive Branch cannot properly perform its functions if any judge anywhere can enjoin every presidential action everywhere,” Harris wrote, contending that while administrations of both parties have lamented the practice, it has reached “epidemic proportions” during Trump’s current term.

Lower-court judges issued 15 nationwide blocks of Trump administration actions in February, Harris asserted, although in some instances the same policy was blocked by multiple judges. That one-month total outstrips the 14 nationwide injunctions issued against the federal government in the first three years of President Joe Biden’s term, she wrote, citing a law review study.

They didn't hold Biden in contempt so Trump figures he's exempt. He's right. What's good for the goose is sauce for the gander.

Trumplandia raised the middle finger to Judge Boas and the judicial branch

purported Tren de Aragua gang members were sent to Salvadorean gulag after the TRO


El Salvador's president, Nayib Bukele, wrote on social media that 238 members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua had arrived, along with 23 members of the Mexican gang MS-13, on Sunday morning.

Their arrival in the central American nation came after a federal judge blocked US President Donald Trump from invoking a centuries-old wartime law (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c89yk405lg9o) to justify the deportations - something Bukele made fun of in a later post.
"Oopsie... Too late," he said.

Bukele wrote that the detainees were immediately transferred to El Salvador's Terrorism Confinement Center (Cecot) "for a period of one year", something that was "renewable" - suggesting they could be held there for longer.
"The United States will pay a very low fee for them, but a high one for us," he added.

It's that 3-D chess stuff you guys used to crow about.

He has no authority there

A federal judge who oversaw illegal spying against the president of the United States—and then made sure the corrupt legal terrorist who fabricated evidence to support the illegal spying never spent a day in jail—is now working on behalf of a foreign terrorist organization to lawlessly traffic terrorists back into the United States.

Forget the niceties of fancy legal briefs and lofty appellate arguments. Boasberg is an enemy of the United States with a documented history of conspiring with criminals to overthrow the elected United States government.

There is zero reason for him to be sitting on the bench when he should be behind bars.

The order, which had no lawful basis, was issued after terrorist [Tren de Aragua] aliens had already been removed from U.S. territory," Leavitt said. "The written order and the Administration’s actions do not conflict."

"Moreover, as the Supreme Court has repeatedly made clear – federal courts generally have no jurisdiction over the President’s conduct of foreign affairs, his authorities under the Alien Enemies Act, and his core Article II powers to remove foreign alien terrorists from U.S. soil and repel a declared invasion," Leavitt added. "A single judge in a single city cannot direct the movements of an aircraft carrier full of foreign alien terrorists who were physically expelled from U.S. soil."

True. And Trump needs to settle this right now. Put it to the test, the whole way and we'll see then.
