"The president took a break from overseeing a domestic occupation, issuing threats to Iran, and pretending he's not deeply implicated in the latest Epstein file dump. Speaking of dumps, Trump finds himself so overburdened these days that he's taken his capacity for multitasking to extreme levels. And yet he still has time for his passion project: authoring a real-time record of his sundowning through his vanity social media outlet."
"Having railed against Leo when the Trade court ruled against the illegal tariff regime, he's back at it now that the Supreme Court - generally exceedingly compliant to the administration's whims - appears likely to break with the White House on both tariffs and his attempt to seize control of the Federal Reserve. Add in the various Republican judges around the country refusing to allow the administration to run roughshod over the Constitution, and Trump might feel genuinely misled."
President Trump publicly targeted Federalist Society figure Leonard Leo, attacking him on social media and calling him a sleazebag. The public tirade followed prior criticism after the Court of International Trade struck down Trump's unilateral tariff attempt. Trump renewed attacks as the Supreme Court and several Republican judges showed willingness to break with the administration on tariffs and a bid to seize control of the Federal Reserve. The exchanges underscore Trump's reliance on the Federalist Society for vetting judicial nominees and reveal frustration at influential conservative operators whose private influence complicates the administration's agenda.
