WASHINGTON – In a landmark decision, a federal judge has ruled that President Trump violated the U.S. Constitution and laws providing checks and balances in the federal government by attempting to deny more than 2 million federal workers their legal right to representation.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ruled late friday that the Trump administration’s May 25 executive order on official time violated the 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and the separation of powers as established in law.
The American Federation of Government Employees, which was the first union to challenge President Trump’s executive orders in court, applauded the judge’s ruling.
“President Trump’s illegal action was a direct assault on the legal rights and protections that Congress specifically guaranteed to the public-sector employees across this country who keep our federal government running every single day,” AFGE National President J. David Cox Sr. said.

Trump violated the U.S.Constitution

Courts have no authority in this matter.

Democracy = judicial fiat from unelected left wing judge
“Democracy” wins lol
Good grief these idiots are so ignorant
A bloated, unionized, forced dues paying bureaucracy is the farthermost thing from a “democracy”
They will be stomped on appeal. This is so great. McConnel has pissed around on our judges. We have more that 100 appointed federal judges that we could do in 1 day but he is a deep state rino and thinks Trump’s election can be over turned. h\He needs hell in his ear!!
>>Courts have no authority in this matter.
They do if nobody stops them.
I don’t inderstand this. It can’t come on a sunday. SO when did this happen? And what order are they arguing about?
Another one that shouldn’t even be a secretary and Obama makes her a Judge
SCOTUS is going to shove this down judge Jackson’s and the AFGE prez’s throat.
Don’t believe the “court” has jurisdiction over this. Just some BS activist lib judge looking for 15 minutes of notoriety .
What does “democracy” mean to these miscreants?
That would be Ketanji "Affirmative Action" Jackson to you...
seditionist J. David “Touching Little Boys” Cox Sr. weighs in with fecal matter spewing from his lying piehole.
A “landmark decision” by a trial judge? Is that even possible?
The judiciary needs amended rules of civil procedure so that all these Federal court decisions invalidating legitimate action by the Chief Executive can be immediately reviewed by the Supreme Court.
We’ll see how this goes on appeal... ;-)
Democracy = Mob rule, so yeah.
.
Beginning to look that way.
