Trump’s DOJ Cries to Judge About Its Missing Staff

Hear that gurgling sound? That’s the sound of the Trump DOJ, outmanned, outgunned, and underfunded courtesy of Elon Musk, losing regularly under the strain of 95 cases in the first 35 days of the Administration. Michael Popok reports on the DOJ telling an unsympathetic federal judge that they just couldn’t get to his case because they don’t have enough staff and what that means for Plaintiff’s groups suing the Trump Administration at a record pace.Upgrade your sleep with Miracle Made!

Trump Gets Cornered by Judge Who Demands Depositions

The days of Musk and Trump playing fast and lose with the facts of what DOGE is and what it is doing may be coming to an end, as a federal judge has had enough with the “opaque” structure of DOGE and has ordered that 4 DOGE employees sit for depositions under oath to explain to the Court what it does and who is in charge at each agency. Michael Popok explains that this order won’t just help the labor union who brought this case but will be used by lawyers and judges in the other more than a dozen DOGE related cases to lock the Trump Administration to stop the lies.Save your smile and your bank account with Remi!

Trump Begs for Help Over His Personal Lawsuits from Govt

Trump is corruptly using his Federal Communications Commission not only to suppress Freedom of the Press and the First Amendment by opening dozens of investigations into corporate media like National Public Radio and PBS, but is using our taxpayer dollars and federal officers who swore an oath to the American People, to benefit Trump’s personal lawsuits against these same entities for billions of dollars.

Trump’s Biggest Plan Suddenly Blocked by Federal Judge

If you don’t like an America where Immigration forces chase undocumented other human beings through Churches and places of worship, then you will love the latest injunction against the Trump Administration to stop enforcement of the inhumane new policies to use these kinds of raids as part of immigration enforcement. Michael Popok does a deep dive into Federal Judge Chuang’s new order and explains what a “mandatory injunction” is and how it’s different from a prohibitive one.
