In just the past week, the legal battles swirling around Donald Trump have reached a new level of intensity, drawing the nation's attention back to a courthouse drama that seems never-ending. On July 23, the Supreme Court stepped in yet again—this time granting the Trump administration's emergency request for a stay in Trump v. Boyle. The decision, delivered without a full briefing or oral argument, reflected a split on the bench, with Justice Kagan writing in dissent. The outcome means the administration can press ahead with removing federal officials—part of a broader campaign by Trump's White House to reshape the executive branch and its agencies. This is happening as the judiciary weighs a surge of legal challenges, not just to Trump personally, but to the policies he's enacted since returning to office.Just before that, the Supreme Court handed down a blockbuster decision on July 9, clearing the way for President Trump to push forward with plans for dramatic reductions in the federal workforce. According to SCOTUSblog, this order lets agencies initiate what Trump described as “large-scale reductions in force”—RIFs—across government. The move came even as lower courts had temporarily blocked it, citing the risk of irreversible damage. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stood alone in her dissent, warning of “an apparently unprecedented and congressionally unsanctioned dismantling of the Federal Government.” Labor unions and advocacy groups vow to keep fighting the order in court, but for now, the Trump administration has the green light.Meanwhile, in New York, the repercussions of Trump's criminal conviction are still rippling outward. The New York Unified Court System's January 2025 audio and filings document the intensity of those final courtroom moments. There's an active appeals process challenging both the verdict and orders in the high-profile Manhattan case overseen by Judge Juan Merchan, as well as appeals stemming from the related Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg prosecution. Despite Trump's attempts to move proceedings to federal court and to dismiss charges on procedural grounds, those efforts have been repeatedly denied. The appeals now move forward on a consolidated docket, setting up a pivotal next chapter.On multiple fronts, Trump's team is locked in appellate battles not only over the handling of state cases but also the fallout from the civil fraud case brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James. After Justice Engoron's major summary judgment and subsequent damages order, both sides are set for a protracted fight in the Appellate Division, which could bring new revelations and risks for Trump's business empire.Layered atop all this is the stream of litigation documented by the Lawfare Litigation Tracker, which notes nearly 300 cases still winding their way through the courts—many challenging executive actions and personnel moves made in Trump's second term. Judges across the country are being asked to rule on the bounds of presidential discretion, the reach of federal courts, and the meaning of separation of powers, as the nation watches with no clear sense of when it all will settle.Thank you for tuning in and staying informed on these unprecedented court battles.

Impure Water in Islam: Rulings and PurificationUnderstanding Water Purity According to Quran and SunnahAssalamu Alaikum.I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy. In this short blog, we will discuss the rulings of impure water in Islam—what makes water impure, and how to purify it—based on the Qur'an and Sunnah.Alhamdulillah, in Islamic jurisprudence, water purity is a vital subject. Water is essential not only for physical cleanliness but for acts of worship like wudu (ablution) and ghusl (ritual bath). In this blog post, we explore the rulings related to impure water, based on Quran and Hadith, as explained by scholars.1. Why Study Impure Water?We must understand impure water because:It cannot be used to remove ritual impurity (minor or major).It cannot purify filth (najasah).It becomes contagious, making whatever it touches impure.It cannot be used for drinking or cooking.2. What Makes Water Impure?Water becomes impure (najis) if it comes in contact with a physical impurity and any of its three characteristics—color, smell, or taste—change as a result.The Prophet ﷺ said:“Water is pure and nothing makes it impure.” — Sunan Abu Dawood 66 (authentic)https://sunnah.com/abudawud:66For example:If urine, feces, blood, or a dead animal contaminates the water and changes its color, smell, or taste, the water is impure.But if a pure substance like saffron changes the water, the water remains pure.3. How to Purify Impure Water?a) Add More Pure WaterIf enough pure water is added to impure water so that the change in color, taste, or smell disappears, the water becomes pure again.Example from Hadith:A Bedouin urinated in the masjid, and the Prophet ﷺ said:“Pour a bucket of water over it.” — Sahih al-Bukhari 220https://sunnah.com/bukhari:220This teaches us that impurity can be removed by overwhelming it with pure water.b) Wait for Natural PurificationOver time, impurities may disappear naturally due to environmental factors (evaporation, sunlight, etc.). If no impurity remains, the water is pure.c) Filtration and Treatment (Modern Methods)Today, technology like desalination and chemical treatment can remove impurities from sewer water, making it safe and pure again, provided the three characteristics return to normal.4. How to Judge If Water Is Impure?The scholars agree:If any one of the three characteristics is changed by impurity, the water is impure.If none of them change, even if a drop of impurity falls in, the water remains pure—especially when the water body is large like a swimming pool.Allah says:“And We made from water every living thing.” — Surah Al-Anbiya 21:30This verse reminds us of the value and necessity of clean, usable water.5. Practical TipIn dire situations (war, drought, etc.), if you only have slightly suspected water, check for the three characteristics. If there's no visible impurity, the default rule in Islam is that the water is pure.Conclusion:Islamic rulings on water purity are merciful and practical. By observing the three signs (smell, taste, color), and using purification methods, we ensure our worship is valid and our hygiene preserved.May Allah increase us in knowledge. Ameen.

It's been another extraordinary week in the ongoing saga of Donald Trump's court battles—one that has seen major developments on multiple legal fronts as the former president continues to dominate headlines and court dockets. I want to take you right into the action of the past few days and give you a sense of just how frenetic, and consequential, these court proceedings have become.Just days ago, the Supreme Court handed a significant victory to Donald Trump's administration by allowing his executive order for sweeping reductions in the federal workforce to move forward for now. This order, issued back in February, directed government agencies to prepare for mass layoffs—so-called “reductions in force”—across the federal bureaucracy. Labor unions, local governments, and advocacy groups were quick to challenge it, concerned about the potential dismantling of large swaths of government operations. Senior U.S. District Judge Susan Illston in San Francisco initially blocked Trump's plan, but the justices, in a brief opinion, sided with the administration, at least temporarily. The order remains in effect pending appeals, and the Supreme Court's decision, with only Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissenting, means federal agencies are once again on notice to prepare for significant changes. Justice Jackson, in her 15-page dissent, warned of “irreparable harm” to the structure of the federal government if Trump's plan is executed before the courts fully resolve the legal questions.Meanwhile, another Trump executive action faced a major legal setback. In New Hampshire, a federal court blocked Trump's attempt to restrict birthright citizenship for children born in the United States. Civil rights organizations including the ACLU and Legal Defense Fund challenged Trump's executive order just days after a Supreme Court ruling that had opened the door for partial enforcement of the controversial policy. On July 10, the federal judge not only issued a preliminary injunction halting the order but also certified a nationwide class to ensure all affected children are protected. According to Carol Rose, executive director of the ACLU of Massachusetts, this ruling reaffirmed the constitutional guarantee of citizenship for all babies born on U.S. soil regardless of their parents' status.And that's not all. The New York criminal case against Donald Trump remains active on the court calendars, with a slew of filings, decisions, and orders continuing through this year. Sentencing audio from early January made headlines and provided a rare public window into proceedings that are as closely watched as they are contentious.With each ruling, appeal, and legal maneuver, the stakes grow higher—not just for Donald Trump, but for the nation's legal and political landscape. Whether it's the fate of thousands of federal workers, the citizenship status of newborns, or the outcome of high-profile criminal trials, Trump's time in the courtroom is shaping American life in real time.Thanks for tuning in, and make sure you come back next week for more updates.

The Supreme Court has been busy releasing opinions. Last week, it ruled against a ten billion dollar lawsuit from Mexico against American gun manufacturers. The Mexican government had alleged that US gun companies were fueling cartel violence south of the border. But in a unanimous opinion, liberal Justice Elena Kagan wrote that the lawsuit didn't reach the burden required by a 2005 law. The court declined to take up two other gun cases: one challenging Maryland's ban on semi-automatic weapons and the other challenging Rhode Island's ban on high-capacity magazines. To talk more about the Supreme Court's decisions (and lack of decisions) and what this means for gun policy, we spoke to Stephen Gutowski. He runs The Reload, a news outlet dedicated to firearms and the gun debate.And in headlines: The US and China (kinda) reach a trade agreement, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard warns of a nuclear holocaust, and the White House Rose Garden gets a makeover.Show Notes:Check out The Reload – https://thereload.com/Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
