Oh, the poor left. I'm telling you what. For the past five months and a week, they have had nothing to celebrate. Nothing to celebrate except for these activist judges. That's been it. President Trump has been and and by the way, he's been he he's done for the past five months and a week. He has done this single handedly. Our legislature, the house and the senate, have sent fewer bills to this president than any congress in the past seventy years. It's not because they're out there making laws. It's because president Trump is acting and good for him, and it's working. And that's really got the liberals upset. In fact, they were already upset just to the victory. What we have, Ellen DeGeneres. She moved over to England. She never took her house off the market, though. I found that interesting. Rosie O'Donnell moved over to Ireland and is already talking about moving back because she's just not the celebrity over there. She says it's hard living over there. Oh, okay. But the reason that she moved is because Donald Trump made her drunk and fat. I hey. That's not me saying it. That's Rosie O'Donnell saying this. During his first go round, it was very difficult, and I got myself into some bad places. You know? I was very, very depressed. I was overeating. I was overdrinking. I was, you know, I was so depressed, Chris. I can't you know, it it hurt my heart that America believed the lies about him, and then it broke my heart to be in a business that creates and sells those lies for profit. Yeah. Blah blah blah. What is in Trump's fault? You know, Chris, I I'm I'm I'm morbidly obese. I got a drinking problem, and it's all Trump's fault. I I have no personal responsibility in that whatsoever. I said, it's all that doggone Donald Trump. I can't believe well, I tell you what, what an effect what an effect this man's had. Have you ever known anybody that ever came up to you and said, hey, you. You made me fat. No. No. They will blame anything and everything on Donald Trump and never have any personal responsibility. I just find that hilarious. Well, they're having a really bad day today because these left wingers are losing their ever loving minds over these Supreme Court decisions. Trump administration, huge victories today after the Supreme Court ruled that district level nationwide injunctions exceeded judicial authority. Now that's gonna throw a bit of a monkey wrench into the left wing strategy of seeking universal relief in a few left wing jurisdictions across the country and hopefully return some actual balance to the separation of powers in the US government. Now while the decision was a victory for common sense and for voters who prefer judges not to overstep their bounds, it was a defeat for the Democrats who wanted that abuse of power to remain in place. Over on MSNBC, Melissa Murray melted down melted down. I think this is a really huge win for the Trump administration. I'm glad that we're talking about it in those terms because I think one of the great fears with this case was that if the court did not say anything about the substance and scope of the fourteenth amendment, media would say that the court had saved birthright citizenship. The court has not saved birthright citizenship. It simply kicked that can down the line and made the legal conditions under which a future suit over birthright citizenship can actually be resolved. Leah is exactly right. This is a huge win for the Trump administration because the court has essentially kneecapped lower courts from stopping this administration when it engages in lawless and unconstitutional behavior. And Lisa makes a really important point. This is all happening in an environment where the Trump administration is not only going after undocumented persons and deporting people without the benefit of due process. They're doing so while they are also upending the legal landscape, but making it harder for pro bono outfits to secure the help they need from law firms to ...
