I’m going to mostly make this a short list because there are so many lawsuits against him and hordes of people that are appalled at this vile man and his kook cabinet. So here’s the highlights JUST FOR TODAY
Never forget Donald Trump lied about a stolen election, incited a mob to attack the US Capitol and massacre Congress and the VP and then pardoned all the traitors.

Trump asserts executive privilege to thwart Jan. 6 lawsuit
Wow. Trump personally intervened to block more than 4,100 Jan. 6 documents records that injured police officers had subpoenaed as part of their lawsuit after being violently attacked by MAGA rioters. The Department of Justice confirmed in a new court filing that Trump invoked

Lawsuits against Trump over the Jan. 6 riot can move forward, an appeals court rules
explains why Trump hopefully will lose his appeal to NOT release documents APTrump has said he can’t be sued over the riot that left dozens of police officers injured, arguing that his words during a rally before the storming of the Capitol addressed “matters of public concern” and fall within the scope of absolute presidential immunity.While courts have afforded presidents broad immunity for their official acts, the judges made clear that that protection does not cover just any act or speech undertaken by a president. A president running for a second term, for example, is not carrying out the official duties of the presidency when he is speaking at a rally funded by his reelection campaign or attends a private fundraiser, the appeals court said.
“He is acting as office-seeker, not office-holder — no less than are the persons running against him when they take precisely the same actions in their competing campaigns to attain precisely the same office,” Judge Sri Srinivasan wrote for the court.
But the court said its decision is not necessarily the final word on the issue of presidential immunity, leaving the door open for Trump to keep fighting the issue. And it took pains to note that it was not being asked to evaluate whether Trump was responsible for the riot or should be held to account in court. It also said Trump could still seek to argue that his actions were protected by the First Amendment — a claim he’s also made in his pending criminal case — or covered by other privileges.
“When these cases move forward in the district court, he must be afforded the opportunity to develop his own facts on the immunity question if he desires to show that he took the actions alleged in the complaints in his official capacity as president rather than in his unofficial capacity as a candidate,” the court said.
It has been great hearing from Jack Smith lately. Trump paid for a coup on January 6. He resisted leaving the White House for as long as he could and in every way he could think of. He paid for and fomented an illegal coup. He urged his MAGA fanatics to march to the Capitol and "fight like hell".

The Justice Department has now sued 18 states in an effort to access voter data Also, GovExec AND Democracy Docket
A federal executive order (EO) issued in March has created questions about the government’s right to access states’ data — especially in cases where that information was collected with a promise of privacy.
Governments have increasingly prioritized inclusive data collection practices, taking into consideration things like disability and gender identity — in part as preparation for AI deployment. This shift broadens the need for governments to protect privacy, especially as federal data collection by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) creates concerns.

Lawsuit against Trump’s $100,000 H1b VISA Fee
20 states lodge lawsuit against Trump’s $100,000 H-1B visa fee
— Politico (@politico.com) December 12, 2025 at 2:32 PM

The suit targets a Department of Homeland Security policy ordered by President Trump that sharply
increases the cost of filing new H-1B petitions. The H-1B visa program,
created by Congress and signed into law by President George H.W. Bush,
allows U.S. employers to hire highly skilled foreign workers for
specialized jobs, including teachers, physicians, nurses and
researchers.Jennings and the
coalition argue the fee exceeds congressional authorization, violates
required federal rulemaking procedures and surpasses the executive
branch’s authority under the Administrative Procedure Act. They say
Congress limited visa fees to amounts necessary to cover administrative
costs.“This
is an unserious idea that threatens a deeply serious crisis,” Jennings
said in a statement. “Policies like these are why the Trump
Administration has lost the public’s confidence on immigration policy.
Their blind crusade to demonize any and every immigrant is undermining
America’s economy, deepening the affordability crisis, and now further
jeopardizing health care access. It’s wrong, and it’s illegal.”
Lawsuit to take Trump’s face off 2026 National Park Passes
The winning photo from the latest contest in June, sponsored by the National Parks Foundation, was a picture of Glacier National Park in Montana.
But the Interior Department chose instead to scrap that photo and unlawfully replace it with a close-up of Trump, wearing his trademark blue coat, red tie and scowling expression, next to a likeness of George Washington, the lawsuit said.
Such a move undertaken without congressional approval violates the 2004 Federal Lands Recreational Enhancement Act, it said.
Kieran Suckling, executive director of the Center for Biological Diversity, likened Trump’s re-design of the annual parks pass to “the way he slaps his corporate name on buildings, restaurants and golf courses.”
“The national parks are not a personal branding opportunity,” he said. “They’re the pride and joy of the American people.”
Please, let’s make this happen! The Center for Biological Diversity is pushing to have Trump’s image taken off the 2026 national park passes and they’ve filed a lawsuit to do it. Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, which requires the

A Utah man who is deaf is suing the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and several members of the Trump administration, saying he U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents injured him when they apprehended him at a Taylorsville bus stop.
In a suit filed in U.S. District Court in Utah, Arturo Ruvalcaba accused the agents of not working to communicate with him when he tried to tell them he couldn’t understand their demands. He said in the complaint that the agents became “physically aggressive,” hurt his arm and put him in handcuffs — and only released him when they found his green card.

The deals followed a set of unprecedented executive orders issued this spring targeting prominent law firms, part of the president’s broader campaign of retribution against firms believed to have supported efforts to hold him accountable during and after his first term. The campaign, which has involved publicly attacking lawyers and undermining bar associations, has included extraordinary steps: suspending certain firms’ lawyers from holding security clearances, terminating their federal contracts, and barring their employees from entering federal buildings on asserted national security grounds. The firms may now be assisting in sensitive matters ranging from trade negotiations to defending law enforcement officers from misconduct accusations, all outside ordinary contracting processes and without the transparency required by law.
“When elite law firms decide it’s safer to appease political power than uphold the rule of law, the public deserves to know what was bargained away. Lawyers swear an oath to serve the public and the Constitution, not abandon principle when it threatens their bottom line. Yet these firms capitulated, engaging in anticipatory obedience to secure protection and profit,” said Chioma Chukwu, Executive Director of American Oversight. “They entered sweeping, secretive agreements with the very administration targeting them, and their work now advances the president’s political agenda at the public’s expense. That is unacceptable. These records must be released so the American people can see the terms of these deals and hold institutions accountable when they choose compliance over principle. And accountability must follow.”
