𝐏𝐨𝐩-𝐔𝐩 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐬© - #JudgeWatch Permanent Thread. Tracking lawless and overreaching judges.

Permanent Thread | 2/11/2025 | by Laz A, Mataz

[Lazamataz]

Hello fellow Freepers. This is the "𝐏𝐨𝐩-𝐔𝐩 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐬© - #JudgeWatch Permanent Thread". It will differ from a standard ping list. Ping lists, when a new article is posted that is in the ping list's interest, you'd be pinged to the article.

This is different. It will serve as a one-stop shop to identify reckless and out-of-control members of the judiciary. You will also find links to articles about their overreaching actions.

The first Judge that really caught my eye was Judge Paul Engelmayer, who ruled that no member of DOGE -- or even the Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent, may access the records OF HIS OWN DEPARTMENT or EVEN ENTER ANY TREASURY BUILDING. To my mind, this would be a lot like banning Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth from all military records, bases and facilities.

He also ruled that any records possessed by a cleared- and vetted DOGE team must be destroyed -- IN DIRECT CONFLICT WITH THE LAW PERTAINING TO GOVERMENT RECORDS.

So, come on the thread, add links to any articles about existing or emerging 𝐏𝐨𝐩-𝐔𝐩 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐬© and any analysis on why their actions are overreaching, unconstitutional, and illegal.

Freeper kiryandil was kind enough to assemble some information below on six of the 𝐏𝐨𝐩-𝐔𝐩 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐬©. It is provided below. I make no representation to its accuracy, but I suspect it is on-point.

Interesting article—thanks.

From my understanding so far, the Treasury writes all the checks for the BS money spent. If anyone gets the chance to be one of the first 10 or so replies to one of the few good members of congress, or any popular MAGA figure, suggest a small bill.

A bill;
In accordance with the IRS requirement of all businesses and citizens to categorize and be able to justify any and all expenditures, the US Treasury shall be required to do the same; fully accessible and auditable by Congressional Oversight Committees at all times

That would automatically make them require that all agencies fill those blank fields in.

Put me down for 47 whack-a-moles and please ping me.
