Trump goes after Leonard Leo in attack on tariff ruling

Leonard LeoPresident Trump denounced a court ruling blocking his tariffs in a lengthy Truth Social post Thursday night that targeted Leonard Leo, who played a central role in shaping Trump’s judicial picks during his first term.

“Hopefully, the Supreme Court will reverse this horrible, Country threatening decision, QUICKLY and DECISIVELY. Backroom ‘hustlers’ must not be allowed to destroy our Nation!” Trump wrote.

Trade block the bulk of Trump’s tariffs before an appeals court lifted the order. The tariffs were also blocked by a separate court, but that ruling doesn’t go into effect for two weeks.

Alongside his condemnation of the ruling, Trump went after Leo, who spent decades forming a conservative judicial pipeline as a longtime leader of the Federalist Society and advised Trump on judge selections during his first stint in the White House.

“I was new to Washington, and it was suggested that I use The Federalist Society as a recommending source on Judges,” Trump wrote in the Truth Social post.

DOJ cutting American Bar Association access to judicial nominees

ABAAttorney General Pam Bondi told the American Bar Association (ABA) Thursday that the Trump administration would no longer cooperate as the organization vets its judicial nominees.

In a letter, the Department of Justice (DOJ) accuses the bar association of failing to “fix the bias in its rating process,” a claim that follows the organization labeling some of President Trump’s nominees as unqualified for the bench.

“Unfortunately, the ABA no longer functions as a fair arbiter of nominees’ qualifications, and its ratings invariably and demonstrably favor nominees put forth by Democratic administrations,” Bondi wrote in the letter to ABA President William Bay.

Trade whiplash: Appeals Court allows Trump to keep tariffs while appeal plays out

us court of appealsAn appeals court ruled President Donald Trump can continue to levy tariffs while challenging a court order that had blocked them, a quick reversal that allows Trump to keep wielding his trademark economic tool in the short term.

The May 29 ruling by the comes a day after the United States Court of International Trade invalidated his use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 to impose tariffs.

The May 28 trade court ruling was a setback Trump's economic agenda, but the administration quickly appealed and won at least a temporary reprieve.

The surprise ruling by the trade court had threatened to kill or at least delay the imposition of Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs on most U.S. trading partners, as well as import levies on goods from Canada, Mexico and China related to his accusation that the three countries were facilitating the flow of fentanyl into the U.S..

Trump news at a glance: Musk confirms White House exit after split with Trump on tax bill

Musk out

In the latest sign the honeymoon is over between Donald Trump and his tech billionaire sidekick, Elon Musk, the president confirmed he will go ahead with his signature tax bill, despite Musk’s public criticism of it.

Musk has sneered at the bill in a series of social media posts and interviews, including one with CBS, in which he said he was “disappointed” to see the bill progressing, saying it would increase the budget deficit and “undermines the work that the Doge team is doing”, referring to the department he oversaw to slash jobs, spending and resources from federal agencies.

A hidden measure in the Republican budget bill would crown Trump king

King TrumpI f enacted, Donald Trump’s Big Ugly Bill as it emerged on Thursday from the House of Representatives would result in the largest redistribution of income and wealth in American history – from the poor and working class to the rich.

Hidden within the bill is also a provision that would allow Trump to crown himself king.

For months now, Trump has been trying to act like a king by ignoring court rulings against him.

The supreme court has told Trump to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Ábrego García, a legal resident of the United States who even the Trump regime admits was erroneously sent to a brutal prison in El Salvador.

Trump has done nothing.

Lower federal courts have ordered him to stop deporting migrants without giving them a chance to know the charges against them and have the charges and evidence reviewed by a neutral judge or magistrate – the minimum of due process.

Again, nothing.

White House stunned as Hegseth inquiry brings up illegal wiretap claims

HegsethThe White House has lost confidence in a Pentagon leak investigation that Pete Hegseth used to justify firing three top aides last month, after advisers were told that the aides had supposedly been outed by an illegal warrantless National Security Agency (NSA) wiretap.

The extraordinary explanation alarmed the advisers, who also raised it with people close to JD Vance, because such a wiretap would almost certainly be unconstitutional and an even bigger scandal than a number of leaks.

But the advisers found the claim to be untrue and complained that they were being fed dubious information by Hegseth’s personal lawyer, Tim Parlatore, who had been tasked with overseeing the investigation.

The episode, as recounted by four people familiar with the matter, marked the most extraordinary twist in the investigation examining the leak of an allegedly top secret document that outlined options for the US military to reclaim the Panama canal to a reporter.

Judge strikes down Trump order that targeted US law firm WilmerHale

judge strikes down Trump retribution against w firmsl

Donald Trump’s campaign against the legal profession hit another setback Tuesday as a federal judge struck down yet another executive order that sought to place sanctions one of the country’s most prestigious law firms.

The order in favor of WilmerHale marks the third time this month that a federal judge in Washington has deemed Trump’s series of law firm executive orders to be unconstitutional and has permanently barred their enforcement.

“The cornerstone of the American system of justice is an independent judiciary and an independent bar willing to tackle unpopular cases, however daunting. The Founding Fathers knew this!” wrote US district judge Richard Leon.

To permit the order to stand, Leon wrote, “would be unfaithful to the judgment and vision of the Founding Fathers”.
