Texas Rep Warns of “Judicial Tyranny” Blocking Trump Agenda

By George Caldwell | The Daily Signal Republican Rep. Brandon Gill of Texas says judges overruling President Donald Trump’s agenda amounts to “judicial tyranny.” Now, Gill is calling on Congress to end the judicial overreach via impeachment. “One of the biggest problems in the country right now is judicial tyranny,” Gill told The Daily Signal’s Tony Kinnett on “The Tony Kinnett Cast.” “It’s judges who are taking off their robes and acting as if they’re political operatives … active members of the Democrat party who are there to do the Democrats’ bidding.” Gill criticized James “Jeb” Boasberg in particular, the President Barack Obama-appointed chief judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.

Justices Take Key Immigration Case on Trump Order Limiting Birthright Citizenship

By Jack Birle | The Washington Examiner The Supreme Court announced Friday that it will hear arguments in a case challenging President Donald Trump‘s executive order on birthright citizenship later this term. In an order released Friday afternoon, the justices said they would take up for review Trump v. Barbara, a case originally brought in a federal court in New Hampshire by a group of people whose children could be affected by the order. The Justice Department filed petitions to the high court to hear the Barbara case and Trump v. Washington, a challenge brought by Democrat-led states, in September, arguing the justices should rule on the legality of the order. “The government has a compelling interest in en...

Family of Alleged DNC RNC Bomber Pushed DOJ for Racism Probe While Fighting Trump in Court

By: Luke Rosiak | The Daily Wire The father of Brian Cole, a bail bondsman for illegal immigrants, hired Trayvon Martin’s attorney in 2021. Brian Cole, Jr. worked for a bail bonds company run by his father that worked to free illegal immigrants from ICE facilities and sued the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security. Weeks before 30-year-old Cole Jr. allegedly planted pipe bombs at the headquarters of the Democrat and Republican parties on January 5, 2021, a court ruled against the company in its lawsuit attacking the Trump administration on immigration issues, The Daily Wire has learned. An FBI affidavit in the case notes that the suspect works for a bail bond company and lives with his mother. Later in 2021, the company held a press conf...

Federal Judge Says Colorado Health Officials Not Liable in Gas Stove Label Fight

By Michael Karlik | Colorado Politics A federal judge last week dismissed the constitutional claim against leaders of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment over a 2025 law requiring health disclosures on new gas-fueled stoves. In June, Gov. Jared Polis signed House Bill 1161 into law, which requires retailers of gas stoves to affix a “yellow adhesive label” that reads “UNDERSTAND THE AIR QUALITY IMPLICATIONS OF HAVING AN INDOOR GAS STOVE.” The label must also include a URL or QR code to a webpage created by the health department that provides “credible, evidence-based information on the health impacts of gas-fueled stoves.” The Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers filed a complaint asserting a single First Amendment vi...

Federal Court Opens Records in Colorado Dispute Over Gender Treatment Inquiry

By Michael Karlik | Colorado Politics A federal judge ordered last month that the public be able to access the filings in Children’s Hospital Colorado’s legal challenge to a U.S. Department of Justice subpoena seeking a broad range of documents about patients, employees and communications. Children’s Colorado sought to keep its case shielded from public view, arguing that disclosing the details of the Justice Department’s request would traumatize patients and providers who work with puberty blockers and hormone treatments — the subject of the government’s request for documents. But in a Nov. 17 order, U.S. Magistrate Judge Cyrus Y. Chung noted the subpoena’s existence and the nature of services Children’s Colorado provides were already matters of public record. ...

Soros-Funded Group Challenges DHS Effort to Hold Illegal Aliens Accountable

By John Binder | Breitbart News A group financially linked to George and Alex Soros’s Open Society Foundations is behind a class action lawsuit brought by illegal aliens who are suing President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for fining them after they have failed to self-deport from the United States. On Thursday, a pair of illegal alien women, joined by the Immigrant Legal Resource Center, filed a lawsuit in an attempt to have a federal judge block DHS from sending them hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines for their failure to self-deport. The Immigrant Legal Resource Center rakes in millions annually from Soros’s Open Society Foundations — including securing a $3.9 million grant in 2022. Likewise, in 2021, the group scored nearly a ...

Democrats Turn to Courts After Voters Reject Climate Mandates

By Washington Examiner Staff | Commentary, The Washington Examiner Democratic Party policies were soundly rejected by voters last November, so activists are turning to courts at the state, federal, and international levels to impose costly and painful climate change policies on consumers. But there are signs that common sense may prevail. A federal court in Montana threw out a case last week that was funded by an activist group called Our Children’s Trust, holding that judges are ill equipped to dictate energy policy for the federal government.  “Granting plaintiffs’ injunction would require the defendant agencies and — ultimately — this court, to scrutinize every climate-related agency action taken,” wrote Dana Christensen, who was appointed by ...

Judge rejects bid to drop Idaho trans athlete case, clearing path for SCOTUS review

By Jackson Thompson | Fox News Trump-appointed judge denied former Boise State athlete's motion to drop Idaho sports law challenge FIRST ON FOX: The legal defense to "save women's sports" scored a big win in its Supreme Court battle over transgender athletes this week. After an Idaho trans athlete tried to have the potential landmark SCOTUS case dropped, a federal judge struck down the attempt to dismiss it and ruled that the case should proceed. U.S. District Judge David Nye, appointed by President Donald Trump in 2017, rejected former Boise State trans athlete Lindsay Hecox's motion to dismiss the case. The trans athlete started the legal battle in 2020, but tried to have it dismissed in September after the Supreme Court agreed in July to he...

From D.C. to state officials, unelected bureaucrats, concerted effort dogs Trump election integrity order

By M.D. Kittle | The Federalist What’s the holdup? Bureaucratic dysfunction? Always. But the usual muck of politics in the TDS era is at work. Unelected bureaucrats have a well-deserved reputation for grinding things to a halt. That’s especially true when it comes to election integrity efforts.  The grinding is particularly pronounced in the movement of President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 14248 on “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.”  The president signed the EO on March 25. It was an urgent call to secure a wounded elections system that, contrary to assertions from left-leaning “voter rights” groups and their stooges in the accomplice media, has been anything but “the most secure in American history.”  Six months later, t...

Sullivan: Ticktin’s legal maneuver revives Tina Peters’ constitutional challenge

By Jason Sullivan | Commentary, The Gateway Pundit What was expected to be the quiet dismissal of Tina Peters’ federal habeas petition — challenging a state court ruling that denied her bond — became one of the most dramatic legal turnarounds in recent memory, as Trump attorney Peter Ticktin and his team delivered a precise, devastating First Amendment argument that stopped the court in its tracks. The federal court in Colorado — now entertaining jurisdiction under a habeas corpus petition — has formally agreed to receive refined constitutional arguments by this Friday, July 25, focused exclusively on whether Tina Peters is being unlawfully imprisoned for her political speech — a violation of her First Amendment rights that, if confirmed, could result in her immediate release on bond...
