Trump says 14th Amendment is for former slaves, not migrants

() — In nearly one month since President Donald Trump’s return to the White House, at least 74 lawsuits have been filed in federal courts against his administration’s wave of executive actions.

As of Monday, judges have temporarily paused 18 of these measures.

Trump’s only victory so far was the approval of his deferred resignation buyout for government employees, a move to reduce the federal workforce. On Wednesday, U.S. District Court Judge George O’Toole declined to further pause a federal government buyout program, enabling the government to forge ahead with its “Fork in the Road” program.

Additionally, a federal judge Friday denied immediate reinstatement for eight former inspectors general fired by Trump, though the case will continue on a less urgent timeline.

Of the lawsuits, 33 are Department of Government Efficiency-related and deal with government structure and personnel, with 19 focused on immigration and citizenship.

Attorneys general from 14 states filed a lawsuit challenging the authority of billionaire Elon Musk and DOGE’s ability to access sensitive government data and exercise “virtually unchecked power.”

Nevada Attorney General Aaron D. Ford argues the government can become more efficient lawfully and with compassion.

One case, Hampton Dellinger’s, is already headed to the U.S. Supreme Court, with the government petitioning to vacate the district court’s decision to temporarily reinstate him to lead the Office of Special Counsel. Dellinger was nominated for the role by former President Joe Biden. Trump fired him earlier this month.

By signing 26 executive orders during his first day in office alone, Trump put himself on pace to rank among the fastest-acting presidents during his first 100 days in office.
