1. People who arrived in America illegally as unaccompanied minors cannot be deported even though you know they came here illegally.
2. Constitution says only legal citizens can vote but the federal government cannot require voters to prove that they are citizens.
3. Trump cannot stop funds from going to sanctuary cities that blatantly violate federal immigration laws.
4. Trump may not put federal grants and contracts on hold when schools and colleges discriminate against people based on race AKA DEI.
5. Trump must reinstate the leftist-controlled Voice of America and rehire all the employees.
Stephen Green: SCOTUS needs to put a stop to this judicial insurrection, but that seems highly unlikely.
It's impossible to overstate how absurd this is.

You can't serve in the military if you have asthma.
But because of two federal judges, we have to bend over backwards to accommodate a "condition" that requires lifelong hormones and multiple surgeries?

Two federal judges didn't just block the policy—they ordered the Pentagon to immediately resume providing "gender-affirming medical care" to transgender military service members.

David Strom:
The Founders would not have imagined a federal judge deciding that they could set standards for military service, because such standards are set prudentially--the military must function optimally to perform its duties. It is not a playground where judges implement their preferred social policies.
What next? A new right for obese people incapable of running more than 10 feet to serve as Green Berets?
This is absurd on its face.
Leftists may want the military to accept transgender people for service, and may believe that they pose no problem, but it is the president and his chosen military leaders who are in the position to determine that, because it is they who are charged with defending the nation--a purely prudential matter. Just as we let officers and senior enlisted decide who will be sent to take a hill or what tactics and strategy will be used to accomplish a goal, we empower the president and Congress to decide what the military should look like and what it should do.
Not judges. Without an effective military, constitutional order, and judicial power, the country is in jeopardy. There will be no Constitutional order to preserve.
These judges seem to think that an amendment was passed that says, "Anything Joe Biden did is the final word on any matter." This is not so. Nor is it the case that judges are empowered to use their power to set policy in all matters in the United States, whatever they think.
For all the talk about nobody "being above the law," that clearly is not the position of the current federal judiciary.
The new judicial standard is, as Louis the XIV said, "L'État, c'est moi."
