While Donald Trump has been rapidly issuing executive orders since his return to the White House last month, some federal judges have been zealously ruling to block or restrict his administration from implementing them.

Whether it’s his effort to eliminate wasteful government spending, reduce the size of government, stop illegal immigration, or affirm the biological realities of gender, judges have taken it upon themselves to combat his actions.

“Opponents are hoping the courts will serve as a check on the president's plans,” Newsweek reported Tuesday in an article titled “Full List of Judges Who Have Thwarted the Trump Administration So Far.”

The article describes how 11 federal judges have “have blocked or restricted” eight of President Donald Trump’s initiatives.

Freeze of Federal Funding During Audit:

Ending Birthright Citizenship for Illegal Alien Children:

Review of Wasteful Spending by Treasury Department:

Dismissal of employee heading the Office of Special Counsel:

Cuts to funding of health care research grants:

Transfer of biologically-male inmates to men’s facilities and denial of their requests for hormone treatments.

Placement of 3,000 U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) employees on paid leave:

Incentive for federal employees to resign:

As Newsweek notes, Judge Jackson has exhibited animus towards President Trump and has presided over cases convicting two of his former associates:

“She became known for her criticism of the first Trump administration's actions and presided over several prosecutions stemming from the Russia investigation, including the prosecutions of Roger Stone and Paul Manafort.”

By region, the 11 federal judges who took action to override the authority of the Executive Branch preside in the following U.S. District Courts:

By president, three of the judges were appointed by Joe Biden (AliKhan, Boardman, Kelley), three by Barack Obama (Engelmayer, Jackson, McConnell), two by Ronald Reagan (Coughenour, Lamberth), one by George W. Bush (Laplante), one by Bill Clinton (O'Toole Jr.) and one by Donald Trump (Nichols).

Elon Musk, who heads the new Department of Government Efficiency created by Trump, has called for the impeachment of judges who overstep their authority in order to oppose Executive Branch actions by the president.
