Notably, the overwhelming majority of those judges are Democrat appointees who seek to prevent President Donald Trump from doing what he was elected to do: govern. According to a lawsuit tracker by the Associated Press, more than 200 lawsuits have been filed against Trump’s executive orders.

On Memorial Day, we honor the Americans who have died protecting and serving this country in the Armed Forces of the United States of America. It is a time when all of us should—no matter who we are, where we come from, or where we fall along the political spectrum—forget about politics and our differences and remember those who gave the last full measure of devotion to our great republic and remember what unites us as a people.

By Hans von Spakovsky ~President Donald Trump has been using an old tool ignored by recent presidents to target trade abusers like China that impose significant barriers to American products and services—tariffs.

The Daily Signal’s own Tyler O’Neil exposes this leftist cabal in his new book, The Woketopus: The Dark Money Cabal Manipulating the Federal Government. In this book, O’Neil reveals how the Left’s NGO apparatus pursues its woke agenda, maneuvering like an octopus by circumventing Congress and entrenching its interests in the federal government.

During his first 100 days in office, President Trump acted with unprecedented speed to make major changes in government policies and root out the pervasive waste, fraud, and diversity, equity and inclusion poisoning our government and its programs.

As the old saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. How else can you make sense of or explain how two unrelated state court judges, 1,072 miles (Massachusetts and Wisconsin) and seven years apart, broke federal law by actively assisting an illegal alien evade capture by federal agents who had all of the necessary immigration paperwork to detain or remove the alien from the United States?
