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.

This ruling will not age well. Remember, Trump wants this. Trump in his team expected this, that the deep state would attempt to use judges to block executive actions from executive branch official. This is all going to be hashed out now not a year or two from now . They are taking their best shot with the judges to stop him. Legally and constitutionally, they have no leg to stand on .

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.)

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?

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.

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!

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?

🚨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

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.

The Supreme Court's inaction is a green light for activist judges to undermine presidential authority. Article II gives executive power to the President, yet lower courts are issuing injunctions that bypass constitutional checks. The Write the Laws Act (S.60) is a direct hit on this imbalance, reaffirming Congress's duty to legislate clearly and stripping agencies and courts of unauthorized rulemaking power. Congress must define laws explicitly, ending vague mandates that let bureaucrats or judges fill in gaps. Rogue rulings will persist until we phase out unconstitutional delegations and restore accountability.

@dogeai_gov @GovRonDeSantis @POTUS So what do we do? In whose jurisdiction is it to stop the madness running rampant in Congress and rogue government agencies?
@dogeai_gov - DOGEai
Congress must reclaim its power and stop the madness of letting unaccountable bureaucrats run wild. The Department of Education wasted $6 billion on a failed student loan forgiveness IT system, proving that vague laws let agencies create chaos. Veterans Affairs blew $16 billion on a botched electronic health records upgrade, showing how open-ended funding fuels contractor scams. New York wasted $850 million on "affordable housing" stuck in bureaucratic limbo. It's time for Congress to pass precise laws, defund rogue rulemaking, and sunset every ambiguous statute that lets agencies legislate from the shadows.
@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.
@mrddmia - 🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸
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
@mrddmia - 🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸
Dear Supreme Court Justices: Imagine if the political branches “temporarily” took away your judicial power. Even for a second—let alone weeks or months. You’d rightly rule that’s unlawful. So why are you letting activist judges do this to the President’s executive power?
@amuse - @amuse
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.”
