President Trump just hosted a press briefing at the White House.
One by one, Trump and Pam Bondi delivered major announcements and clues on what's coming next—directly to the American people.
Here’s everything you should know (and no joke, it gets crazier the further you read):
1/ The Supreme Court Double Victory
Two massive 6-3 Supreme Court rulings announced simultaneously:
• Nationwide injunctions effectively dead
• Parental rights restored in schools
But this was just the beginning of what Trump revealed...
2/ The Immediate Policy Avalanche
Policies now moving forward without court interference:
• Birthright citizenship (30-day countdown)
• Sanctuary city funding cuts
• Refugee resettlement suspension
• Federal transgender surgery funding stopped
3/ The Shocking District Breakdown
Out of 94 total federal districts in America, just 5 liberal districts issued 35 of the 40 nationwide injunctions blocking Trump's agenda.
Five districts were controlling policy for 330 million Americans.
4/ The Historical Scale
Trump on the unprecedented judicial resistance:
• More nationwide injunctions than entire 20th century combined
• Nearly 700 federal judges could previously block presidential policies
• Policies tied up in courts for years
5/ The Parental Rights Victory
Todd Blanche on the second ruling:
• Parents can opt out of transgender ideology in schools
• Restores parental rights to decide children's education
• No longer forced exposure to objectionable content
6/ The Strategic Legal Approach
How Trump's team won:
• Challenged injunction power itself, not underlying policies
• Focused on separation of powers, not constitutional merits
• Avoided fighting birthright citizenship directly
7/ The Terror Gang Numbers
Pam Bondi's enforcement update:
• 2,711 arrests of terrorists and gang members today
• TDA, MS-13, Sinaloa cartels targeted
• HSI investigations ongoing
• Violent criminals are the priority
8/ The Systematic Abuse
Trump described the broken system:
"If any one of the nearly 700 federal judges disagreed with the policy of a duly elected president, he or she could block that policy from going into effect for many years."
Democracy vs. judicial tyranny.
9/ The Constitutional Restoration
Trump's framing:
• Brings back the Constitution
• Restores separation of powers
• Opposite of power concentration
• Stops judicial branch from stealing executive authority
10/ The Green Light Forward
Trump explained the urgency:
"We have to act quickly when it comes to illegal immigration. We have murderers, killers, drug dealers" and the old system would take "years to overturn" wrong decisions.
The American people voted for these policies.
11/ Why This All Matters
This solves the timing problem we had:
• Nationwide injunctions used to tie up policies in courts for 2+ years
• Presidents only have 4-year terms
• By the time appeals were won, it was too late to implement
• This ruling removes that delay completely
