The great undoing: Trump's presidency reeled in by courts

(AXIOS) No modern president has done more in his first 130 days than President Trump — only to have much of it undone, at least temporarily, by the courts.


The big picture: Trump is testing the limits of presidential power at every turn, and the courts are just about the only thing standing in his way.

(NBC News) The decision comes after the Supreme Court allowed the administration to remove protected status for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans.


 A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from revoking the temporary protected status of roughly 5,000 Venezuelans who are in the U.S., despite Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s February decision to terminate a Biden-era extension of the program.

Patel and Bongino's choppy transition from roasting the FBI to running it

(AXIOS) Kash Patel and Dan Bongino spent years torching the American security state for concealing nefarious secrets about Jeffrey Epstein, Jan. 6, the "Russia hoax" and the assassination attempts against President Trump.


  • Now they're not only inside the gates, they're in charge of the FBI — and serving a president who distrusts the bureau even more than they do

Trump Shares Unhinged Conspiracy Theory That Biden Is a Robot Clone

(The Daily Beast) With one repost from President Donald Trump, former president Joe Biden has joined a storied pantheon: public figures believed to have died and been replaced by clones.


Not content with spreading conspiracy theories on Friday night, late on Saturday night, Trump shared a post by a supporter to his Truth Social page that claimed Biden was killed in 2020. 


The post reads, “There is no #JoeBiden - executed in 2020. #Biden clones doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see. Democrats dont know the difference.”

Gabbard considering ways to revamp Trump's intelligence briefing

(NBC News) Donald Trump’s intelligence chief is exploring ways to revamp his routine intelligence briefing in order to build his trust in the material and make it more aligned with how he likes to consume information, according to five people with direct knowledge of the discussions.


One idea is to make the briefing, which according to his schedule Trump has been taking less often than his predecessors, a video that looks like Fox News.

Paramount Plan To Pay Off Trump Sparks California Senate Probe, Request Ex-CBS News staff to Testify

(Deadline) Lesley Stahl is certain Paramount will pay off Donald Trump to end POTUS’ $20 billion 60 Minutes lawsuit, and Scott Pelley exclaims journalism is under attack. 


However, if Shari Redstone thinks a big check and an apology for a piece last year from the CBS newsmagazine series he didn’t like is enough to grease the regulatory wheels for Skydance’s $8 billion absorption of the company, the California state Senate has a news alert for her.

Trump leaves US Steel deal shrouded in confusion, raises tariffs

(AXIOS) Trump spoke for more than an hour on Friday at a U.S. Steel facility in Pennsylvania, but never explicitly said if he's approved a deal whereby Japan's Nippon Steel would acquire U.S. Steel for $14.9 billion.


"We’re going to bring it from 25% to 50%, the tariffs on steel into the United States of America,” Trump said Friday.

Federal appeals court pauses rulings on Trump tariffs, allowing them to continue — for now

Federal appeals court pauses rulings on Trump tariffs, allowing them to continue — for now

(NBC News) A federal appeals court Thursday temporarily paused rulings by a panel of judges that halted several of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on international trading partners.


The “judgments and the permanent injunctions entered by the Court of International Trade in these cases are temporarily stayed until further notice,” the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit said in a brief ruling.


The tariffs will remain in place until at least June 9, giving the government time to submit a motion defending their legality.
