  • After two weeks of a flood of executive orders and government department shutdowns, judges are stepping into the fray to slow down Donald Trump's chaotic attempts to remake the U.S. government in his own image.

The article from MSN discusses how former President Donald Trump's legal and political initiatives are encountering significant resistance from the judiciary.

This judicial pushback includes dismissals of lawsuits, sanctions against Trump's legal team, and rulings that limit his ability to delay or derail legal proceedings. The report highlights instances where courts have not only rejected Trump's arguments but have also imposed penalties for what they perceive as frivolous or baseless litigation. This judicial trend is seen as a significant obstacle to Trump's strategy of using the courts to fight political battles, suggesting a broader shift where the legal system is less willing to entertain or be swayed by Trump's tactics.
