This should help eliminate the crush of litigation in Minnesota. The judges there are basically reversed in full, lending a hand to the US Attorney's Office. Read the full opinion here: https://t.co/lzLobyT88t

The government's theory was that Outcome "oversold and underdelivered", even though defense lawyers proved Shah was told, by the very same government cooperators, that the company had provided credits to advertisers in each and every instance of delivery…

U.S. District Judge Loretta Biggs, an Obama appointee, upheld North Carolina's photo voter ID law in a sweeping 134-page ruling. She found that liberal voting rights groups, including the state NAACP, failed to prove the 2018 law violated the 14th Amendment, the 15th Amendment, or the Voting Rights Act. The ruling keeps the law firmly in place heading into the 2026 midterms and hands Republicans a significant win on election integrity.
In 2018, 55% of North Carolina voters approved a constitutional amendment requiring photo ID at the polls. The legislature then passed it, and it became law. The bill is thorough and accounts for every silly excuse Democrats make against Voter ID: Free photo IDs are available at county election offices and the DMV. Accepted forms include a driver's license, military ID, or U.S. passport. Voters without ID can fill out an exception form for a provisional ballot or bring their ID in before certification. The accommodations are extensive.
Now, we all know there's nothing discriminatory about Voter ID, but that's the narrative that the left has long been pushing, and, for the most part, liberal judges have been striking down commonsense Voter ID laws for years. So, when I learned that an Obama judge actually made this ruling, I was pleasantly surprised. It's not every day that an Obama-appointed judge rules for common-sense election integrity.

The author of the Ninth Circuit panel decision sustaining a San Francisco Judge's decision to keep TPS for Venezuela in place cited the Supreme Court's decision in the Tariffs case Learning Resources v. Trump as supporting the panel's decision. But to do so, Judge Kim McClane Warlaw did great "violence" to the the language and reasoning of the Supreme Court in that case maybe to the degree that it will draw the attention of the Justices.
Here is the relevant passage from Chief Justice Roberts' opinion:Quote:
Absent from this lengthy list of powers is any mention of tariffs or duties. That omission is notable in light of the significant but specific powers Congress did go to the trouble of naming. It stands to reason that had Congress intended to convey the distinct and extraordinary power to impose tariffs, it would have done so expressly as it consistently has in other tariff statutes.
Here is what Judge Warlaw wrote in taking this language and "modifying" it to suit her purposes this week:Quote:
As the Supreme Court recently explained, "[t]he omission" of a particular power in a statute "is notable in light of the significant but specific powers Congress [does] go to the trouble of naming." Learning Resources v. Trump…. "It stands to reason that had Congress intended to convey the distinct and extraordinary power to" vacate a prior lawful designation or extension, "it would have done so expressly."
According to Judge Warlaw the authority vested in Congress in the Constitution to impose tariffs is functionally no different than the "extraordinary power" of the DHS Secretary to "vacate" actions of her predecessor in office. She broke up the Supreme Court's quote, removed "to impose tarrifs" and put in its place "vacate a prior lawful designation or extension" as if they were interchangeable as a constitutional and legal matter.
That is an example of an abuse of judicial discretion in the fashioning of a legal argument.
...
Yes, in multiple provisions of its amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act Congress has "taken great pains" to keep Article III courts out of the enforcement of immigration policy!!!
It seems that only Article III judges like Judge Wardlaw have difficulty reading the proverbial signs saying "KEEP OUT" posted throughout the amendments with respect to judicial interference.
Within the last few days, the D.C. Circuit upheld a District Judge Anna Reyes' order blocking the ending of TPS for Haiti. The Second Circuit took similar action with respect to Syria.
In its Applications for Stays in both those cases filed with the Supreme Court, the government has asked the Court to take both up under its "Cert. Before Judgement Rule." This is a Supreme Court rule that allows the Court to take up a case on its merits without waiting for a Circuit Court of Appeals to finish considering the case basically the 9 Justices decide the case without waiting for three judges in the Circuit Court to weigh-in with their decision.
But Judge Chen's Final Orders regarding Venezuela mean that case is concluded. The Ninth Circuit has considered the government's appeal on the merits, and upheld Judge Chen's decisions. It has now voted to not grant en banc review, and the case is now final for all purposes.
Judge Warlaw's injudicious invocation of the holding in the Tariffs' case, combined with the nonchalance with which the panel opinion sloughs aside the Court's two Stays because no explanation was provided could contribute to a view on the Court that it should take all three cases up immediately and resolve this issue prior to the end of the Court's current term in June.
Can district courts review immigration decisions despite jurisdiction stripping? No, writes Chief Judge Brennan. Timely decision on immigration and jurisdiction-stripping. Also, the Court admonishes counsel for what looks like artificial intelligence produced citations. pic.twitter.com/7fUIfdEeJq

BREAKING: A judge orders the Trump administration to halt construction of $400 million White House ballroom unless Congress approves the plan. https://t.co/XIvbeM3kT2
— The Associated Press (@AP) March 31, 2026
Quote:
U.S. District Judge Richard Leon in Washington granted a preservationist group's request for a preliminary injunction that temporarily halts President Donald Trump's White House ballroom project.
Leon, who was nominated to the bench by Republican President George W. Bush, concluded that the National Trust for Historic Preservation is likely to succeed on the merits of its claims because "no statute comes close to giving the President the authority he claims to have."
"The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner!" the judge wrote.
Leon suspended enforcement of his order for 14 days, acknowledging that the case "raises novel and weighty issues, that halting an ongoing construction project "may raise logistical issues." He also recognized that the administration is likely to appeal his decision.

The " National Trust for Historic Preservation" sued and claims only Congress can approve the design and construction.
It is a non-profit entity run by Carol Quillen who from what I can tell, is a leftist.
