Heartwarming: Donald Trump Lost 3 Court Cases in One Day

Donald Trump’s authoritarian agenda suffered triple L's when three judges ruled against him in one day.


The rulings came just a day after Trump threw a tantrum over judges slowing down his unconstitutional deportation plans calling them a form of “judicial insurrection.” Bold of him to accuse anyone else of insurrection like January 6th was a birthday party.


In Washington, a federal judge pressed pause on a key part of Trump’s bid to enforce sweeping changes to voting and election registration. Opponents claimed his executive order requiring people to produce a document proving their citizenship before voting overstepped his presidential authority.


Putting the order on hold, Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly said in her 120-page opinion: Our Constitution entrusts Congress and the States—not the President—with the authority to regulate federal elections.” She further chided Trump, saying he couldn’t “short-circuit” Congress.


In San Francisco, another U.S. District Court Judge William Orrick barred the president from denying federal funds for “sanctuary” cities across the United States.


Federal judge William Orrick barred the Trump administration from denying federal funds for sanctuary cities across the country, including New York, ruling that the administration was prohibited “from directly or indirectly taking any action to withhold, freeze, or condition federal funds.” The judge said Trump’s executive order halting funds violated the “Fifth Amendment to the extent they are unconstitutionally vague and violate due process.”


Sanctuary cities refer to communities with laws preventing or limiting local officials from cooperating with federal immigration authorities. Outside of San Francisco, there are 15 other cities and counties in the lawsuit, including Seattle and King County, Washington; Portland, Oregon; Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota; New Haven, Connecticut; and Santa Fe, New Mexico.


In the third ruling in Concord, New Hampshire, U.S. District Court Judge Landya McCafferty blocked the administration from cutting funding to schools with diversity, equity and inclusion programs. The (ACLU) launched the lawsuit accusing the administration of violating teachers’ due process and First Amendment rights. The judge said the education department did not “even define what a ‘DEI program’ is” when it wrote to schools enforcing the change.


“A professor runs afoul of the 2025 Letter if she expresses the view in her teaching that structural racism exists in America, but does not do so if she denies structural racism’s existence. That is textbook viewpoint discrimination,” she said.


Trump hates due process, but especially for migrants, saying that judges insisting on due process for immigrant deportees was akin to insurrection.


“When you have to get out and do court cases for individual people, and you would have in theory millions of court cases… They’re really saying you’re not allowed to do what I was elected to do,” he added.


He wasn't elected to break the Constitution despite spending the first 90 days in office dangling it over a shredder.
