Another day, another federal judge has a full-blown ‘resistance’ mental breakdown.
We’ve had some spectacular ones so far, usually from elderly liberal judges, like this one from an 85-year-old judge who included handwritten rants and pictures in his rulings.
The latest one comes from 77-year-old Cynthia Rufe who begins her ‘ruling’ with a quote from George Orwell’s 1984. Good move for outraged freshman compositions, usually indicative of a mental breakdown among federal judges.
Rufe then compares Trump to Big Brother for trying to take down the hateful DEI racist rants plastered across museums including, in this case, George Washington’s home when the Orwellians were the ones trying to brainwash people with those rants.
“This Court is now asked to determine whether the federal government has the power it claims—to dissemble and disassemble historical truths when it has some domain over historical facts. It does not,” Rufe rants.
The federal government has to power to decide what goes in the museums it controls. Rufe has no objection to Obama and Biden doing it which means her basis for objecting to Trump doing it is pure partisan politics.
Nor is there any legal basis for her objections or her ruling.
“The President’s House is a component of Independence National Historical Park that commemorates the site of the first official presidential residence and the people who lived there, including people enslaved by President George Washington. On January 22, 2026, the National Park Service (“NPS”) removed panels, displays, and video exhibits that referenced slavery and information about the individuals enslaved at the President’s House.”
According to her Democrat allies, Judge Rufe argues that, “Members of the Democratic Caucus of the Senate of Pennsylvania warn of irreparable harm to their constituents because “this sudden loss of rich history and Defendants’ rejection of the true historical narratives about black history in America is causing deep constituent harm and anxiety.”
And so the National Park Service isn’t allowed to change the contents of exhibits because of “irreparable harm” and “harm and anxiety”.
Judge Rufe rants that “the government claims it alone has the power to erase, alter, remove and hide historical accounts on taxpayer and local government-funded monuments within its control. Its claims in this regard echo Big Brother’s domain in Orwell’s 1984.”
She actually does believe that. But by the government she means herself and her allies.
We all know that this wouldn’t work the other way and it’s past time that the administration stopped following the worthless rulings of deranged federal judges who are drunk on their own power and rage.
This kind of behavior is part of the reason why we launched the Judicial Accountability Project to hold federal judges accountable.

White woman signaling her virtue.
Let us honor George Washington by showing what a low down, flesh trader he was!
Retire already.
The fragility of people today is not indicative of the history of Americans. What has happened to soften them up so? I thing it is estrogen in the food supply.
I’ll say it again.
The 19th Amendment was a terrible mistake.

Why does anyone pay any attention to these useless insane wastes of skin...
People like her just cannot think about or imagine where they would be today if it weren’t for people like George Washington.
Another DEI one no wonder the system is going to hell.
” by “The Government” she means herself and her [ideological] allies “
Troof
That's what Washington did, before his adversary, King George III, freed slaves (1804 England freed slaves in their homeland, but not the rest of the empire).
In the end, Washington freed more slaves than he bought. Most of his slaves came to him through inheritance, marriage, as debt payment, or natural increase (children born to slaves). He bought 71 slaves, but freed 123 slaves.
The Biden Admin took down statues of Confederate heroes and renamed military bases. Because Democrat presidents are allowed to do stuff.
:: were racist by current year standards ::
John Quincy Adams, to his father: “Dad, you can’t just GIVE them identification papers. They’re ... they’re ... JAMAICAN!”
Every person must be judged within the context of his/her times.
It’s a rather simple principle.
But it doesn’t help the argument of race hustlers.
So they ignore it.
Oh, and here’s something interesting. Whether you agree or not, Martin Luther King wrote about homosexuality being a mental disorder. Funny how the left gives him a pass on that. They understand he was writing within the context of his times.
This explains a lot...
And so the National Park Service isn’t allowed to change the contents of exhibits because of “irreparable harm” and “harm and anxiety”. Sweetheart I don’t feel any of that.
AWFUL
How is it when protesters in Minneapolis are not bound by the law and sanctuary cites and states across the nation are not bound by Federal law, that the Trump administration feels it is bound by Federal judge law? When will the administration tell the judges to go to hell. All it does is give these loons the green light to completely defeat the electoral will of the American voter.
I thought a judge could only issue an order if it’s based on constitutional law.
I just did a quick check. I couldn’t find “harm and anxiety” mentioned anywhere in the Constitution. I dunno. Maybe I didn’t check good enough.
