New York Judge Paul Engelmayer just forbade all political appointees — including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent — from accessing Dept. of Treasury data, all based on Blueanon conspiracy theories!! Those theories couldn't be challenged because the order was EX PARTE — meaning Trump's lawyers weren't warned, and couldn't weigh in. Only Democrat Attorneys General were allowed to argue. The judge cites no law or logic to support this unprecedented order, because it defies both. The judge’s ruling is, in essence, that Scott Bessent simply occupies a ceremonial position without real power, like the King of England. This is a grenade thrown into the functioning of the Treasury Department. It forbids the elected government from accessing information about budget and finances. Instead, only the permanent, deep-state government can know what's being spent. It means Scott Bessent's subordinates have far more power than Scott Bessent does. Democrat pundits who whine about the Constitution are liars, and will shred it the first chance they get. For now, the order is only for the next week, but if a court tries to make it permanent the Trump Administration should absolutely consider defying it. Better yet, SCOTUS should bar this judge from ever hearing similar cases again, and every Democrat lawyer involved should be sanctioned.

LAWFARE: In an egregious and unconstitutional assault on executive authority, Judge Paul Engelmayer has unilaterally forbidden all of Trump's political appointees—including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent—from accessing Treasury Department data. This ruling, concocted without legal precedent or constitutional justification, is nothing short of judicial sabotage. Worse, it was issued ex parte—meaning Trump administration lawyers weren’t given notice, weren’t allowed to argue, and weren’t even in the room. Only Democrat attorneys general were heard, ensuring a predetermined outcome. Engelmayer’s order is legally indefensible. He cites no statutory basis because none exists. He offers no constitutional rationale because the Constitution directly contradicts him. Instead, he fabricates a fiction: that the duly appointed Treasury Secretary is nothing more than a ceremonial figurehead, akin to a powerless monarch, while unelected bureaucrats—who answer to no voters—control the nation’s finances. This is judicial tyranny masquerading as jurisprudence. The implications are staggering. By stripping the executive branch of access to its own financial data, this ruling effectively transfers control of the federal purse to the permanent bureaucracy—the so-called “deep state.” That is a direct assault on the Constitution’s separation of powers, which vests executive authority in the elected President and his appointees, not in career government employees. This is lawfare at its most brazen: a raw, partisan power grab dressed up in legalese. If allowed to stand, this decision sets the precedent that any left-wing judge can unilaterally strip the President of his authority and hand it to the administrative state. That is not democracy. It is not law. It is judicial dictatorship. While the order is currently set to last only a week, no serious person believes this won’t be extended if the courts think they can get away with it. The Trump Administration should treat this for what it is—an unconstitutional usurpation—and consider defying it outright. No judge has the authority to cripple the executive branch and hand power to unelected bureaucrats. Beyond that, the Supreme Court must intervene and overturn this blatant violation of constitutional governance. Judge Engelmayer should be barred from hearing any future cases related to executive authority, and every Democrat lawyer who enabled this attack on the Constitution should be sanctioned. This is not a legal dispute—it is a coup by the judiciary against the elected government. And it cannot be allowed to stand.

The Supreme Court must step in quickly and decisively on the emergency docket, as activist judges are illegally sabotaging the Article II power of the President. Otherwise, the judiciary will lose its legitimacy—then its funding. (Do your jobs without law clerks, for example.)

🔥This ruling by Judge Engelmayer echoes historical precedents where judicial overreach has threatened executive authority, reminiscent of the Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer case where the Supreme Court checked presidential power. 🔥 • It's crucial to remember that the separation of powers, as intended by the framers, is under attack here. This isn't just about Trump; it's about preserving the constitutional framework. • The absence of due process in this decision, where Trump's legal team was excluded, mirrors tactics used in political witch hunts, undermining the fairness of our legal system. • With elections on the horizon, this could set a dangerous precedent for future administrations, potentially allowing judicial activism to dictate policy over elected officials' decisions. • The judiciary's role should be to interpret law, not to legislate from the bench. This decision blurs those lines dangerously. • Legal scholars and constitutional experts should weigh in publicly to highlight the overreach and its implications for democratic governance. • Citizens and lawmakers alike need to rally for checks against such judicial oversteps to maintain the balance of power envisioned by our Constitution.

Outrageous. Obama Judge Paul Engelmayer didn’t just bar @elonmusk and @doge from Treasury systems, he barred the Secretary of the Treasury himself. Without citing a single law or even allowing Trump admin to appear in court! This outlaw should be reversed immediately and Engelmayer should be forbidden by higher courts from ever hearing another case against the Trump admin. https://www.wsj.com/us-news/law/federal-judge-blocks-elon-musks-doge-from-treasury-system-e0f1e55c?st=QQJrvW&reflink=article_imessage_share

Let me see if I have this right. The Treasury Secretary CANNOT access any data from the treasury? Wow. Who is afraid the secrets are coming out. This judge was not elected nor was he given the mandate by the people. Enough is enough. WE THE PEOPLE demand transparency. IT IS OUR MONEY, NOT YOURS.

100% At @Article3Project, we're drafting legislation to "reform" the DC U.S. District Court--the worst of the worst. Maybe we get rid of the (unconstitutional) DC Superior Court, make current DC U.S. District Court judges handle DC street crimes, cut their budgets, and randomly draw U.S. judges from across America to sit by designation for all other DC cases?
@mrddmia - 🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸
Seems like the ideal time to get rid of the (unconstitutional) DC Superior Court:

A judge has no Constitutional authority to ban an Executive Branch appointee from accessing anything in an Executive Branch agency. The President is the head of the branch. The judge has no power over that plenary Constitutional authority. Defy the orders. Impeach the judge.

A corrupt judge protecting corruption. He needs to be impeached NOW!

There is a massive effort by the UNELECTED bureaucracy to oppose the ELECTED President, House & Senate!! This is why I say the true & noble battle is to restore DEMOcracy, rule of the people, from the BUREAUcracy, rule of the bureaucrats.
@elonmusk - Elon Musk
What happens is that those who want the government corruption & waste to continue will shop around the country for an activist judge to do their bidding. It is an undemocratic and unconstitutional power grab by a tiny group of radical leftists!
@julie_kelly2 - Julie Kelly 🇺🇸
For four years, these same DC judges routinely lamented attempts to “overthrow democracy” on Jan 6. Now these same unelected judges are defying the will of a president who won at least 77 million votes to protect unelected nameless bureaucrats.

🧵 I’m drafting articles of impeachment for US District Judge Paul Engelmayer. Partisan judges abusing their positions is a threat to democracy. The left has done “irreparable harm” to this country. President Trump and his team at @DOGE are trying to fix it.
@RepEliCrane - Rep. Eli Crane
This is obviously judicial overreach. Judge Engelmayer is attempting to stop White House employees from accessing the very systems they oversee. Where in the constitution does it say a President and his team cannot root out obvious waste, fraud and abuse?
@PressSec - Karoline Leavitt
🚨It's a media hoax that President Trump is causing a “constitutional crisis.” The real crisis is taking place within our judiciary, where activist judges are abusing their power to unilaterally block the President's basic executive authority and thwart the will of the people. https://t.co/YnaL4EmSoV
@mrddmia - 🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸
This is insane. A DC federal judge has ordered the commander-in-chief not to bring home overseas foreign-service officers. This is lawless. And a dangerous sabotage of the President’s Article II constitutional powers. (Maybe this judge has a conflict of interest?) https://t.co/VOnWOQmOES
@GovRonDeSantis - Ron DeSantis
Justice Alito is right. The (liberal) district judge has no authority to order @POTUS Trump to send billions of dollars overseas. The Supreme Court missed a huge opportunity to put a stop to rogue district courts interfering with executive branch operations. Now, this decision gives a green light to every “resistance” judge to throw sand in the gears of the President’s Article II authority.
@WallStreetApes - Wall Street Apes
Today activist judges - Ordered the release of illegal migrants back into America - Told the President of the United States he can’t revoke security clearances of George Soros funded law firm Perkins Coie And yet, “Article II of the Constitution states that the executive power shall be vested in @POTUS. No court may take over that rule. No court may define or limit the scope of the duties of an official within the Executive Office of the President.” So what the heck is going on here? Why have no impeachments been started on these judges? We elected Donald Trump as President not these activist liberal judges
@elonmusk - Elon Musk
Without judicial reform, which means at least the absolute worst judges get impeached, we don’t have real democracy in America
@PressSec - Karoline Leavitt
The Executive Branch cannot properly function if activist liberal judges can unilaterally block presidential actions over the entire country. If a federal district court judge wants executive powers, they can try and run for President themselves. The Trump Administration will immediately fight back against these absurd and unconstitutional orders. The American people overwhelmingly voted for President Trump's agenda, and it will be fully implemented.

@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 2/ Obama-appointed Judge Boasberg tried stopping deportation flights of Venezuelan terrorists. He wants them on OUR STREETS. But AG Bondi just dropped a BOMBSHELL: "We will ABSOLUTELY continue the flights" 🔥
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 3/ “These are foreign terrorists, that the president has identified them, and designated them as such, and we will continue to follow the Alien Enemies Act,” Bondi said Monday
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 4/ Let's be CLEAR what we're dealing with: • Tren de Aragua gang members • Designated TERRORISTS • Illegally in America • Caught committing crimes in OUR country • Trump deporting them according to the law
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 5/ DIRECT QUOTE from Border Czar Tom Homan that'll make your jaw DROP: "I don't care what the judges think. I don't care what the left thinks. We're coming."
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 6/ He's right. Trump is following the law. And the three branches have EQUAL power to interpret and enforce the Constitution. One local judge does NOT have the authority to issue a nationwide injunction, esp on national security. Time to "resist". https://www.rodmartin.org/p/judicial-despotism-how-to-end-nationwide
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 7/ 🔥 The real story? Deep state trying to block Trump admin from protecting YOU and YOUR FAMILY. They're also trying to neuter the Presidency through unconstitutional judicial activism. But Bondi isn't backing down. Will Judge Boasberg hold her in contempt? Good luck.
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 8/ And don't forget: this is a dirty judge. He was on the FISA court that authorized domestic spying on a political opponent (Trump 2016). That's Watergate times 1,000. He's been part of the lawfare for a decade. Absolutely corrupt.
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 9/ It's time to stop judges from acting like dictators. The Constitution does NOT give them executive authority. We can't have hundreds of unelected Presidents. The voters elect one. This isn't against legitimate judicial authority. It's against unconstitutional abuse.
@RodDMartin - Rod D. Martin
@AGPamBondi 10/ Expect more flights. More deportations. And more fireworks from Judge Boasberg and John Roberts. It's time to settle some of these issues. Trump has the guts to stand up. No Republican before ever did.

This is insane. An activist Obama judge illegally rules the President's staff cannot access information at an Executive Branch agency for the purpose of rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse. This is a clear violation of Article II, which gives the President all the executive power. This includes his constitutional duty to "take care" our laws are faithfully executed--free of waste, fraud, and abuse. https://www.axios.com/2025/03/20/doge-musk-access-social-security-blocked

LAWFARE: Democrat-appointed judges who issue nationwide injunctions against the Trump administration are acting beyond both their constitutional and statutory authority. If Congress and the Supreme Court fail to rein them in, the very idea of the rule of law risks collapsing into judicial fiat. h/t @WallStreetApes
@WallStreetApes - Wall Street Apes
Official Hearing: Federal Judges are violating the US Constitution with universal injunctions against Donald Trump’s orders “There is clearly a potential constitutional crisis involving the judicial branch's effort to fully override the legislative and executive branches. 15 district judges effectively seize control of various executive branch duties in the first 6 weeks of the current presidency through nationwide injunctions. This is potentially a judicial coup d'etat. It clearly violates the constitution and more than 200 years of American history.” “President Thomas Jefferson's agenda: President Jefferson concluded that impeaching the judges would take too much time. He and the Congress simply abolished the courts in which they served via the Judiciary Act of 1802. This is a constitutional balance of power. The legislative and executive branches can reshape the judiciary branch. It is a useful reminder in considering the current situation unelected lower court judges have been steadily grabbing power for years.”
