Trump 2nd term live updates: Court denies appeal on birthright citizenship injunction

^{Published on 2025-02-20 03:40:33 - ABC}

President Donald Trump's administration on Wednesday lost its appeal to lift a nationwide injunction against his executive order on birthright citizenship.

The article from ABC News discusses various aspects of Donald Trump's potential second term, focusing on the implications for White House staff and policy directions. It highlights Trump's plans to potentially replace a significant number of federal employees with loyalists, aiming to implement his "Schedule F" executive order which would reclassify many policy-related federal workers as at-will employees, thereby making it easier to dismiss them. This move is part of a broader strategy to ensure that the bureaucracy aligns more closely with his political agenda. Additionally, the article touches on Trump's previous term's controversies, including the high turnover rate of staff, and how his administration's approach to governance could intensify in a second term. It also mentions reactions from current and former government officials, concerns about the erosion of the merit-based civil service system, and the potential impact on government functionality and policy implementation.
