Judges have halted various Trump administration initiatives, including an executive order restricting birthright citizenship and a buyout program for federal workers. The judiciary's pushback comes amid concerns over the erosion of legal checks on presidential power, especially with multiple lawsuits filed. Observers view these judicial rulings as significant given Congress's limited role in curtailing Trump's actions, suggesting only the courts remain as a crucial guardrail against executive overreach. As legal challenges mount, the long-term implications for Trump's policy agenda face increasing uncertainty.
