Federal judges know the federal government needs revenue to pay their salaries. They tend not to decide that the way the government collects revenue is illegal.

Only judges that can “create laws” are SCOTUS in very rare cases, not far left district court judges.

Please keep in mind...

At least 80% of the alleged Trump lawyers are Hard Left, career government, federal employees.

Almost none of them actually voted for Trump.

Most of them are just going through the required motions, so they do not get fired, demoted, or disbarred.

I don’t know that to be the case.

Every litigant has the right to appeal to the intermediate appellate courts. Those courts routinely stay the trial court orders pending their review of the court record.

These events aren’t “wins” for either side, but merely a time out period for the litigants to craft their appellate briefs.

It’s true that DOJ employees are leftists. All you need to do is look at political campaign donations for federal elections. Depends on the year but it’s usually well over 70% for Dem candidates.
No surprise given that law schools lean far left and anti constitutional.

Re: "I don't know that to be the case."

80%-90% of campaign contributions by federal government employees go to the Democratic Party.

80%-90% of federal government executives are on the Political Left.

It is almost impossible to get a high paying promotion if you are NOT on the Political Left.

Black robe Pirate Roberts ordered this accelerated decision. The kind of concierge service the ACLU has been getting the last few months. He wants to avoid Congress writing populist demanded laws, to slap down his nationwide clan of gypsy clowns and activists.

The tariffs continue unabated.
That makes it a win for Trump.

How do you know these jokers are in charge of Trump's fights against far left activist judges?
Bondi is not stupid.
Had plenty of experience working with/against leftist lawyers as AG of Florida for 8 years.
Easy enough to send the Biden lawyers to go chase burglars etc and leave the political stuff to her own conservative lawyers.

There’s plenty of routine crime work for Bondi to put leftist lawyers on.
Plenty of murders in Chicago for example, drug dealers etc.

Meanwhile trade deficits kept falling

CNBC’s Rick Santelli was FLOORED by how much trade deficit was slashed in the wake of Trump's tariffs.
