The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday rejected the DOJ’s bid to lift a Clinton judge’s order blocking Trump’s reorganization plans for 20 federal agencies.
Last Friday US District Judge Susan Illston, a Clinton appointee, turned a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) into a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump Administration’s effort to overhaul and reorganize 20 agencies in the Executive Branch.
In February, President Trump implemented an executive order to completely overhaul the Executive Branch through the work of DOGE.
The California-based judge said in order for President Trump to make such large-scale overhauls, he needs approval from Congress.
.... Snip....
The three-judge panel majority: William Fletcher (Clinton), Lucy Koh (Obama) and dissent: Consuelo Callahan (George W. Bush).
Judges Fletcher and Koh said President Trump violated the separation of powers and usurped congressional authority when he tried to overhaul 20 federal agencies.

Seems as if everybody is the President of the United States these days except the President of the United States.
Ignore all the judicial activists.
This case was always headed to the Supreme Court, so it’s good that the 9th Circuit bowed out quickly and the Supremes can decide whether to take it up.
Heads are popped up out of their judicial foxholes. They are on full display, finally. This is a good thing.
The Trump DOJ appealed Judge Illston’s injunction and on Friday, a three-judge panel on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the appeal in a 2-1 decision.
The three-judge panel majority: William Fletcher (Clinton), Lucy Koh (Obama) and dissent: Consuelo Callahan (George W. Bush).
Judges Fletcher and Koh said President Trump violated the separation of powers and usurped congressional authority when he tried to overhaul 20 federal agencies.
Time to go for an ‘en-banc’ decision !
Now it goes to SCOTUS. With the Ninth Circuit, SCOTUS should have taken the case before the Ninth Circuit heard because the result is predictably wrong, but it doesn’t work that way.
Nah - the Clinton stooge and the Obama stooge outvoted the Dubya judge.
Friggin’ so-called “judges” asses are out of control. Lowlife piggies.
Just in time for the Talk shows. How convenient. USSC should do it’s damn job soon or they won’t have jobs because the country won’t be here.
Delete the 9th.
It’s long overdue.
Roberts has long been in on the grift.
Drain his Bank Accounts.
I forgot. The 9th Circus is the far-left commie biatch “judges”.
(Lowlife piggies.)
Charles Manson would approve!
Would have been a shock had they gone the other way.
I expected nothing less. But the Supreme Court has been more favorable in its rulings when it comes to the President’s power to manage the administrative state.
Reorganize them one at a time. Every week.
The problem is, he’s not ignoring them.
And Congress has too many gutless RINOcrats and traitorous Demonicrats to impeach and then convict these traitorous judges.
