    As I have mentioned previously, I expect many of the lawsuits fired against Trump's actions will travel through the court systems and land up at the U.S. Supreme Court.

    In my opinion, the U.S. Supreme Court will back many of his actions -- including those involving firing federal employees, deportations, and DEI executive actions. After all, Trump is the chief executive and managing the executive branch including staffing, the conditional issuing of selected grants, and border actions are under his purview.

    Supreme Court allows Trump to terminate 16,000 probationary federal workers
    The court said nonprofits, labor unions challenging the move lacked standing.

    Federal judges can be impeached by Congress.

    The clerks and other workers employed by the Federal Judicial Branch can only be fired by the Judicial branch -- not by the Executive or Legislative branches of government.

    Congress could refuse to fund (via the budget) particular federal judicial operations effectively forcing particular federal courts to layoff employees -- but this is unlikely to happen.
