Attorney General Pam Bondi raised concerns Tuesday on Fox News about the role of liberal judges in what she sees as judicial overreach affecting presidential authority.

During an appearance on “Kudlow,” Bondi discussed what she said are the challenges faced by the presidential administration due to liberal judges. She said that the federal supremacy is challenged by state and local jurisdictions through the guise of virtue signaling and sanctuary cities.

Rep. Thomas Massie Demands Congress Cut Off USAID Funding After Supreme Court’s Outrageous Ruling | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com

Excerpt:

Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) is calling on Congress to take immediate action to defund the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) following an outrageous SCOTUS ruling.

In a jaw-dropping betrayal of American taxpayers and constitutional integrity, the Supreme Court has caved to the radical left, stomping all over President Donald Trump’s rightful executive authority.

On Wednesday morning, the Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration must IMMEDIATELY fork over $1.9 billion in foreign aid payments—money that hardworking Americans never signed up to ship overseas.

This disgraceful ruling upholds a rogue district court judge’s order, forcing the administration to honor bloated foreign aid agreements that predate Trump’s America First agenda.

The court’s ruling was a narrow 5-4 decision, with all three far-left justices predictably siding with the non-profit groups demanding their taxpayer-funded handouts be restored.

Head of watchdog agency ends lawsuit to stop his firing by Trump – The Washington Post

Head of watchdog agency ends lawsuit to stop his firing by Trump – The Washington Post

Excerpt:

The head of an independent watchdog agency said Thursday he was dropping his lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump’s attempt to fire him without cause, ending a case that posed a key question about whether independent government watchdogs can be summarily fired.

Hampton Dellinger, head of the Office of Special Counsel that protects federal government workers and whistleblowers from mistreatment, said he decided to stop fighting his ouster after a federal appeals court on Wednesday allowed the administration to remove him while his case proceeded.

Had Dellinger’s case ended up at the Supreme Court, the justices would have had an opportunity to decide whether restrictions on his removal encroached on the president’s executive authority under the Constitution. A ruling against him could have permanently weakened the Office of Special Counsel, stripping it of autonomy from the administration it is supposed to police.

Excerpt:

The recent Supreme Court decision ordering the Trump administration to disburse $2 billion in foreign aid has ignited fierce debate over the court’s role in U.S. governance, with critics questioning its legitimacy and constitutional boundaries. The ruling, which drew sharp dissent from Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh, has intensified scrutiny of the judiciary’s influence over executive powers.

The decision mandates that the administration release funds despite objections from President Trump’s team, who argued that it restricts their duty to American taxpayers and overlooks alleged fraud in aid distribution. Critics, including legal analyst Mike Davis, have accused the court of overstepping, with Davis posting on X:

 

“When the federal judiciary loses its legitimacy, it must lose its funding.” In his dissent, Justice Alito expressed disbelief, writing, “Does a single district-court judge… have the unchecked power to compel the Government to pay out 2 billion taxpayer dollars? The answer should be an emphatic ‘No.’”

Excerpt:

Last night, President Donald Trump delivered his first joint address to Congress, an event that technically isn’t dubbed a “State of the Union” until a president’s second year in office. The evening was marked by Trump’s enthusiasm as he outlined his vision for America and took time to recognize key members of his administration, including Elon Musk, Pam Bondi, Linda McMahon, Kash Patel, Sean Duffy, and Marco Rubio, among others. His energy was palpable, setting an optimistic tone for the night. Despite the constant interruption from the peanut gallery leading to Democrat Rep. Al Green’s ejection from the speech.

One of the standout moments came when Trump introduced a 13-year-old boy named D.J. Daniel. Diagnosed with brain cancer in 2018 and given just five months to live, D.J. has defied the odds for over six years. His dream? To become a police officer. Alongside his father, D.J. has pursued that dream relentlessly, earning honorary titles from police departments who adore him. Trump, clearly moved, announced a special honor:

“Tonight, D.J., we’re going to do you the biggest honor of them all. I am asking our new Secret Service director, Sean Curran, to officially make you an agent of the United States Secret Service.”

Not enough words can be said about how epic Trump’s speech last night was, or how disgusting Democrats were with their childish displays of resistance and disruption. The left’s behavior was an embarrassment to our nation, and their antics fell flat with the American people who were watching.

Of course, our views here at PJ Media and other conservative outlets only mean so much. What’s really telling is what left-wing media had to say about the Democrats’ behavior — and it was brutal.

Even the most partisan liberal commentators couldn’t defend what we all witnessed. Over at MSNBC, in a remarkably candid exchange, Symone Sanders-Townsend and Michael Steele couldn’t hold back and legit gave honest assessments of Democrats’ strategic failures during Trump’s speech to Congress.

“The bingo signs were killing me. I don’t know who thought of the bingo signs, but they should be fired,” Steele declared bluntly during the panel discussion.

Excerpt:

 

We can now say that President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday was a big hit as the data now says he drew 36.6 million viewers on Tuesday.

That is 13 percent higher than the 32.2 million that Biden drew for his final State of the Union speech in 2024, Variety reported.

Trump didn’t beat his own State of the Union speeches, though. In 2017 he racked up 47.7 millions, then in 2018 he saw 45.6 million, followed in 2019 with 46.8 million, and then 37.2 million for his final speech in 2020. In comparison, Biden only had one SOTU speech that drew more when he saw 38.2 million in 2022. The rest of his speeches were far less than Trump’s in all respects and all on the same networks as Tuesday’s.

But, remember, Tuesday’s speech was not an official State of the Union speech.

The numbers also show that Fox News won the largest share of viewers, reaching 10.7 million viewers, which was 30 percent of the total audience.

Excerpt:

U.S. President Donald Trump was forced to weather numerous interruptions from his political opponents during his lengthy 100-minute joint address to Congress on Tuesday night.

Since taking office 44 days ago, Trump has doubled down on his promise to strip back diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, has attempted to freeze government subsidies to major health care service providers such as Medicaid and moved to dismantle the Department of Education.

In addition, he has tried to halt funding to international aid programs such as USAID, has banned transgender troops from the military and slammed Canada, Mexico and China with sweeping tariffs, prompting a trade war that experts warn will likely result in widespread economic turmoil.

Trump began his speech by briefly addressing the newly instated levies.

“Tariffs will make America great again, and it’s happening and it will happen rather quickly,” he assured Congress, adding that there will be “a little disturbance,” at first.

“I can find a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe out entire nations, or announce the answers to the greatest economy in history,” he continued, “or the stoppage of crime to the lowest levels ever recorded and these people sitting right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not cheer for these astronomical achievements.”

Trump, dating back to his first term in office, has appeared in front of Congress five times – and each time has been met with a frosty reception from Dems.

“It’s very sad,” the commander in chief said.

Excerpt:

The latest polls show that the American people support President Donald Trump’s plan for restoring America as the Democrats continue to oppose him on “one sensible policy after another.”

Two major post-speech polls indicate that most Americans approved of Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night.

The findings reflect a positive reception for both his policy proposals and his leadership.

Meanwhile, they also highlight the disapproval of disruptive behavior from some Democrat lawmakers.

As Trump’s White House AI and cryptocurrency czar David Sacks pointed out, voters watched as “Democrats sat sullen-faced as President Trump described one sensible policy after another” during the address.

“Democrats took the 20% side of every 80/20 issue,” Sacks noted.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday said he wanted to “make things right” with Donald Trump and to work under the US President’s “strong leadership” to secure a lasting peace in Ukraine.

In his first public comments since Trump halted US military aid to Ukraine overnight, Zelensky called for a “truce” in the sea and sky as a first step to securing an end to the three-year-long war.

“Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible to bring lasting peace closer. Nobody wants peace more than Ukrainians. My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump’s strong leadership to get a peace that lasts,” Zelensky said in a post on X.

He said Ukraine was ready to agree to a “truce in the sky – ban on missiles, long-ranged drones, bombs on energy and other civilian infrastructure – and truce in the sea immediately, if Russia will do the same.”

Zelenskyy, congressional allies seek new cards in high-stakes Ukraine fight – Roll Call
Source Link
Excerpt:

A White House official said Monday evening that the administration had frozen all deliveries of U.S. military and other aid to Ukraine following Friday’s dust-up between the two leaders.

“The president has been clear that he is focused on peace. We need our partners to be committed to that goal as well. We are pausing and reviewing our aid to ensure that it is contributing to a solution,” the White House official said. The official did not disclose how long that “review” might last, but it was clear the next move was Zelenskyy’s.

One longtime Senate ally, who has supported the billions in U.S. aid allocations to Ukraine, already appears to be playing a new hand.

“The Europeans are piling on in support of Zelenskyy. Here’s my message to the Europeans: Maybe it’s time for you to defend your continent. Maybe it’s time for you to stop hollowing out your military,” Sen. Lindsey Graham told SiriusXM on Saturday.

“And if you want to use tough rhetoric toward [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, how about back it up with some muscle? When a European leader speaks, no bad guy listens,” the South Carolina Republican said. “When Trump speaks, everybody’s on edge. I was never more proud of President Trump than I was [Friday]. He stood up for America. He refused to be lectured to.”

Excerpt:

NBC News reported that the State Department stopped a USAID program that sent money to Ukraine to help rebuild its power grid earlier this week:

Power outages have been applied overnight in some regions of Ukraine due to the attacks on energy facilities. The country’s systems have sustained near-constant impact throughout the course of the three-year war.

“It significantly undercuts this administration’s abilities to negotiate on the ceasefire, and it’d signal to Russia that we don’t care about Ukraine or our past investments,” one USAID official involved in the Ukraine mission told NBC News.

The official continued: “Russia is fighting a two-pronged war in Ukraine: A military one but also an economic one. They’re trying to crush the economy, but USAID has played a central role in helping it be resilient, [including] shoring up the energy grid…We’ve provided vast amount of support to the Ukrainian government to avoid a macro economic crisis.”
