Podcasts about federal judges

Lots of work to do—let's get to it—Here are 3 big things for this hour—   Number One— Once again Federal Judges are hindering states in pursuit of fair congressional district boundaries – and this time they are going after Texas—and soon the Supreme Court will weigh in to settle it all—   Number Two— A new discovery in the arctic will unleash American dominance in rare earth elements—and propel the nation to a new path toward energy and AI superiority—it's a big deal—   Number Three— An update on the Epstein files release – with Trump's support – the House voted 427 to 1 yesterday to release the files – with Representative Clay Higgins as the only “no” vote over concerns about a lack of protection for the identities of victims and witnesses. In the Senate the bill also received overwhelming support and will soon be on the way to the Presidents desk for his signature—

A federal judge ruled Tuesday to temporarily block a new Texas law requiring schools to display the Ten Commandments in classrooms, marking the second time a court has found Senate Bill 10 to be unconstitutional.

If the order stands, candidates would run for Congress in the 2026 mid-term elections under the previous boundaries;  the Dallas Stars submitted new court filings in their ongoing legal battle with the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday evening, accusing the Mavericks of violating their own franchise agreement with the City of Dallas.

Trump and his Administration have, in the last 24 hours, already violated Chief Judge McConnell's emergency temporary restraining order to force Trump to provide billions in SNAP food stamp payments to 42 million Americans no later than Wednesday. As Trump trolls the most underprivileged of Americans (the poor, disabled, Veterans, babies, children, and the elderly) who face starvation, declaring that he will violate the Court's order and not make SNAP payments at all, public interest groups have rushed back to Court to make sure the Court acts and more people don't die on Trump's watch.

In breaking news, a Trump-appointed Federal Judge issued a late Sunday night emergency Preliminary Injunction continuing to block Trump's attempts to violate State Sovereignty and federalize and deploy state militia/national guard on the streets of Portland. Michael Popok explains that the Judge will be entering the final Permanent Injunction against The Trump Administration by Friday, but because Trump refused to give her the time to issue her final order, she was forced to enter an emergency preliminary injunction. Popok also explains how this case and its legal arguments may impact the United States Supreme Court's ultimate decision on whether Trump can send federalized troops into Blue States and Cities because he says so.

President Donald J. Trump, the President assailed by the Democrat party's “NO KINGS!” protests, has now placed that same party in the awkward position of having its own partisan Article III federal judges playing the role of king and ordering about the Article II Executive Branch president as if he were a mere clerk in their court.With funding for SNAP—more traditionally known as “food stamps”—having expired due to the government shut-down, Judge John McConnell, a far-left partisan federal judge out of Rhode Island, has summarily ordered President Trump to simply “show me the money!” in order to keep the program funded—although it is the Article I Congress, not the President, who controls the federal government's purse strings. This insane royal mandate from Judge McConnell, by itself more than sufficient judicial corruption to justify his impeachment and removal from the federal bench, follows on a series of earlier equally insane orders issued by McConnell to Trump, including an order to spend billions of dollars in federal moneys against the Executive's wishes—with those earlier orders having been appropriately stayed by the cooler heads on the Court of Appeals. 

Hello to you listening in Warsaw, Poland!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.I am deeply proud of my Polish heritage and being a lawyer. These times are unprecedented; but especially for judges, the last line of freedom's defense. Attacks on the independence of the judiciary are sweeping our country taking various forms ranging from court capture to direct attacks on judges. The cowards behind the attacks know that the independence of judges - the judicial branch of government - is foundational to democracy.“Judicial independence is fundamental to the rule of law. The rule of law is fundamental to freedom. Freedom is fundamental to the protection of every citizen.” [John Macmenamin - Judge at the Supreme Court of Ireland]Those are not my words. Those are the words of John Macmenamin, a judge at the Supreme Court of Ireland who joined with Polish judges at the “1000 Robes March”, an unprecedented event held in the name of judicial independence.1000 Robes March was the greatest demonstration of judges in contemporary Europe, with more than 30,000 people, including hundreds of judges from 22 European countries marching in solidarity with their Polish colleagues in the fight for judicial independence. The silent march in January 2020 was a reaction to proposed laws that threatened to undermine the judiciary's independence in Poland.  "A Thousand Robes" is a short (12 minute) documentary film directed by Kacper Lisowski. The story is about mutual gratitude, focusing on the positive interactions between judges, lawyers, and the public. It highlights citizens who are moved by the judges' defense of their rights and lawyers who have experienced solidarity from ordinary people and European judges. The film serves as a warning against what dismantling the democratic mechanisms of the state leads to.Documenting this touching episode of the dramatic struggle for the rule of law that still lacks a happy ending in Poland, Kacper Lisowski also talks to the European judges participating in the march of a thousand robes. Particularly poignant is the voice of a Turkish judge who knows from experience what happens when such a struggle is lost.Click HERE to watch A Thousand Robes the film on YouTube.CTA: Maybe like me you will be moved to tears at what We the People can accomplish when we heed a call to action. This is what democracy looks like! Take Hope! Take Heart! Take Courage from all the good work being done by our federal judges who are in solidarity with our Democracy, our Constitution, our rule of law without fear or favor! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: Inside the paper on page A20, the Times reports on a breakdown in solidarity fighting the shutdown. “Top Federal Workers Union breaks with Democrats over the shutdown. AFGE chief calls on Congress to open now and negotiate later. The largest union of federal workers called on Monday for Congress to pass a spending bill to immediately end the government shutdown,” the Times writes, “effectively siding with President Trump and Republicans who have opposed Democratic efforts to restore health care spending. ‘Both political parties have made their point, and still there is no clear end in sight,' Everett Kelly, the president of the American Federation of Government Employees, said in the statement. He added, ‘It's time to pass a clean continuing resolution and end this shutdown today. No half measures and no gamesmanship.' The statement,” the Times writes, “was a remarkable shift for the Union. Before the shutdown began on October 1st, Mr. Kelly called on Republicans to negotiate with Democrats who are seeking concessions, including the extension of subsidies for plans under the Affordable Care Act that would stave off premium increases and the loss of coverage for millions of Americans. The union has also worked closely with Democratic lawmakers on efforts this year to oppose Mr. Trump's policies, particularly his wide-reaching campaign to slash the federal workforce and fire career civil servants. But,” the story continues, “amid the punishing effects of the shutdown on federal workers, Some 730,000 are working without pay and another 670,000 are furloughed entirely. Senate Democrats have blocked legislation that would pay the civil servants who have been working without pay, a move that would provide relief to the union's members but would weaken the bargaining position of democratic lawmakers. The Republicans, in turn, blocked a pair of Democratic bills that would have paid both those federal workers who are still working and those who have been furloughed.” “Provide relief to the union's members” there, then, would mean provide relief to a bit more than half of the union's members, while the others remain out of work and unpaid.

First, this unelected, black-robed, tyrannical, inferior, district trial court judge lacks the authority to micromanage the Article II Executive Branch border patrol. Second, her order could not and did not prohibit the border patrol from deploying tear gas in lawful self-defense—and in this event with Bovino, that's exactly why the tear gas was deployed.Join me LIVE at 11:15 AM ET as I break it all down!I also invite each of YOU to join me in our desperate but worthy mission to save our great nation. The easiest way to do that?
