Rush Hour. I am James Golden aka bost Nerdly, with
you here on the fastest hour in American media. Bar
None and federal judges are going to take center stage
today as they have been trying to take center stage
for the entire short already but long already duration of
Trump forty seven a federal court last night, as you know,
blocked President Donald Trump from using his powers as President
of the United States, in charge of this country's national security,
in charge of this country's foreign policy, to prevent him
and the administration from implementing tariffs. Never mind that other
presidents Joe Biden, Richard Nixon, among others, have used the
very same powers, although admittedly not to the degree that
President Trump has done it, and the degree is caused
by what has transpired in this country over the last
four decades. But a federal judge deemed it necessary to
interfere with the executive branch, so that court blocked President
Donald Trump's use of emergency powers to impose reciprocal reciprocal
tariffs on imports what nations are all already doing to us.
A court has determined the President of the United States
cannot take action. This is beyond absurd. Now that has
been supplanted by news that broke shortly before the show,
ap issued an alert. A federal appeals court today is
allowing President Donald Trump to continue collecting tariffs under an
emergency powers law for now, as his administration appeals in
order striking down the bulk of his signature set of
economic policies. The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
granted an emergency motion from the Trump administration arguing that
a halt is critical for the country's national security. This
is a security issue, so they temporary halted the order
from the Federal Trade Court. Who even knew there was
a Federal Trade court issued last night. There'll be more,
of course, added to this story now. Caroline Levitt spoke
about this ruling at the White House Pressure today. Cut
one and let's listen to.
Speaker 4: Her of judicial overreach.
Speaker 5: Using his full and proper legal authority, President Trump imposed
universal tariffs and reciprocal tariffs on Liberation Day to address
the extraordinary threats to our national security and economy posed
by large and persistent annual US goods trade deficits. The
United States has run a trade deficit of goods every
year since nineteen seventy five. In twenty twenty four, our
trade deficit in goods exceeded one trillion dollars.
Speaker 4: Everybody agreed, Please, this is unacceptable.
Speaker 5: President Trump is delivering on his promise to fix this problem,
and he has taken a long, overdue and much needed,
bold stance for American workers. After decades of our manufacturing
base being hollowed out. The President's rationale for imposing these
powerful tariffs was legally sound and grounded in common sense.
President Trump correctly believes that America cannot function safely long
term if we are unable to scale advanced domestic manufacturing capacity,
have our own secure critical supply chains, and our defense
industrial base is dependent on foreign adversaries. Three judges of
the US Court of International Trade disagreed and brazenly abused
their judicial power to usurp the authority of President Trump
to stop him from carrying out the mandate that the
American people gave him. These judges failed to acknowledge that
the President of the United States has core foreign affairs
powers and authority given to him by Congress to protect
the United States economy and national security. Congress had created
the National Emergency Act to provide the congressional framework to
strike down improper iepa use, and any questions over whether
President Trump improperly imposed these iepa tariffs were already adjudicated
in Congress. Following Liberation Day, Congress firmly rejected an effort
led by Senator Ran Paul and Democrats to terminate the
president's reciprocal tariffs.
Speaker 4: The courts should have no role here.
Speaker 5: There is a troubling and dangerous trend of unelected judges
inserting themselves into the presidential decision making process. America cannot
function if President Trump, or any other president for that matter,
has their sensitive diplomatic or trade negotiations railroaded by activist judges.
President Trump is in the process of rebalancing America's trading
agreements with the entire world, bringing tens of billions of
dollars in tariff revenues to our country and finally ending
the United States of.
Speaker 4: America from being ripped off.
Speaker 5: These judges are threatening to undermine the credibility of the
United States on the world stage. The Administration has already
filed an emergency motion for a stay pending appeal and
an immediate administrative stay to strike down this degregious decision,
but ultimately, the Supreme Court must put an end to
this for the sake of our constitution and our country.
With Congress returning next week, it's critical that Senate Republicans
maintain the momentum and quickly pass the one.
Speaker 2: Day now absolutely right the Supreme Court, folks is needed
here and They can continue to try to kick the
can down the road, they can continue to not try
to want to engage in this fight. But this has
to be stopped. Right now. We have six hundred and
sixty seven district court judges. Every day of this administration,
another one pops up his or her head, raises their
hand to try to get in on the act, try
to make sure that they're part of the resistance. And
that is what this is all about. This is judicial
resistance from the left. In most cases. I'm not saying
every single ruling, every single ruling in every single case
is without merit and is instigated on the part of
these judges by political bias. That it's not what I'm saying,
but it is clear that there is an agenda at
work with some of these rulings, and there is no
way that these unelected, unaccountable to the people of the
United States district judges should keep trying to form the
barrier of Democrat Party resistance to Donald Trump. And that
is exactly what is the intent of some of these judges.
They are not behaving as judges. They ought to be
able to understand the separation of powers and to take
themselves out from trying to put on the mantle of
president upon themselves in the courtroom in response to the
whinings and sniveling of Democrat activist groups. Now you take
this case in Boston, a judge, a federal judge in Boston,
an Obama appointee, by the way I believe, Yeah, Obama appointee.
Allison D. Burrows already granted Hovard University a temporary restraining
order last week from preventing the government from revoking their
certification in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program. The program
permits the university to have international students with F one
or J one visa's study into the United States at yesterday.
At today's hearings, she said she's going to block. Her
block on the Trump administration is going to stand for now.
One of the things that I read about her, and
this is another story. Let me pull this one up.
This one's in the Daily BS. That one is the
first one I read from Fox News story and Burrow
said she wants to maintain the status quo because according
to The New York Times, people are terrified. That is
not as true as that may be, that is not
a constitutional reason to stop the president of the United
States from performing his duties because people at Harvard University
are terrified. People at Harvard University were terrified when they
were being mobbed by anti semi protesters, and the judge
didn't interfere then and say, people are terrified. Let's stop
all of this. What Donald Trump has done with Harvard University,
there is a legal rationale behind it. The Justice Department
lawyers submitted to the docket a letter by Homeland Security
and ICE. They listed compliance issues. They cited the university's
failure to follow reporting requirements, failure to maintain a campus
environment free of violence and anti Semitism, and practices with
foreign entities raising national security concerns. What are those practices?
Among those practices, pro Hama student groups that promoted actively
promoted anti semitism after the October seventh attacks are still
recognized and funded by Harvard University. That's one. The letter
also says that the Department of Homeland Security has obtained
evidence that creates serious concerns that Harvard University has coordinated
with the Chinese Communist Party and other foreign entities that
have adverse, present an adverse being to our national security.
They say that the government task force it was appointed
by this administration has found that Harvard has failed to
confront pervasive, discriminate race discrimination and anti Semitic harassment that
is a plague on its campus. Jewish students on the
campus we're subject to pervasive insults, physical assaults, and intimidation,
and Harvard's leadership did not respond. Now, people may not
like it, but the Trump administration is well within its
legal authorities to say this has got to stop. We're
putting federal money in this school. They have to play
by the rules. And these judges who are part of
the Democrat Party, apparently resistance effort must be put in
their place. And the only entity there are two entities
that can do it. One is Congress under Article three
of the Constitution, and Congress can immediately and should immediately
write a law that bans these nationwide injunctions except in
clear cases that are well defined, and this should happen
from the Congress of the United States. And the other
entity that can put a stop to this nonsense is
the Supreme Court.
Speaker 3: The Rush Hour with James Golan on the Red Apple
podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James goldan entertaining and
informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 6: If the courts are going to be the ones who
are shaping policy, does the president wish he would have
just become a judge instead?
Speaker 4: I think the President would take this job.
Speaker 2: You know. I had one of the most amazing conversations
today right before the show. I had to actually stop
before the show started because it's like, I gotta, I
gotta get back in the in the political head with
a dear friend of mine. Have you ever talked to
somebody you haven't talked to in decades and you just
pick up like it was yesterday, so and it has
been decades. He is a guy by the name of
David Nathan who is one of the He was the
American writer for Blues and Soul Magazine, which was started
in nineteen sixty seven and it started in England. It's
a British pub and they go back to like R
and B greatness. He's done, like I think, over two
thousand interviews of some of the greatest artists ever and
he's just an amazing guy. So we're gonna, in fact,
one of these days on the Saturday show, he's gonna
come on with us and we're gonna share some vibe
and share some music. Love David Nathan R and B.
He's over in London now. He lived in America for
a long time. He's been back in London for the
last twenty years or so. So anyway, we'll continue with
the political madness of the day on this the fastest
hour in American media. Bost literally's right. Whatever you do,
my friends, keep it right here, don't go away.
Speaker 3: The Rush Hour with James Golden on the Red Apple
Podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James Golden Entertaining and Informative.
Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Networks. Okay, so the United
States has stopped scheduling visa interviews for foreign students while
while it expands social media vetting. Good State Department halting
new visa interviews for foreign students hoping to study here
while it prepares how they're going to vet them using
social media tools. Our good friend who was on the
Saturday Show with Us, Tammy Bruce, just love Tammy. She
made that she's the State Department spokesperson. Tammy made that.
She said, Yeah, we're going to continue to use every
tool we can to assess who it is that's coming here,
whether they are students, really students or otherwise. So the move,
first reported by Politico, is the latest in the Trump
administration's crackdown. So now it's a crackdown to actually vet
who's coming into the country. Okay with that, And there's
another story today it was ABC News the Trump administration
had backtracked on Harvard's foreign student policy. Well, they didn't
really backtrack. They're giving them thirty days now from the
date of this service of the notice today to submit
written representations under oath and supported by documentary evidence setting
the reasons why SEVP, that's the program that allowed these
student visus to happen, should not be withdrawn from Harvard
University certification. If the certification is withdrawn, Harvard would no
longer be approved to enroll or continue to educate non
immigrant students. So this is not over by any stretch
of the imagination. Now, going back to this issue with
the federal judges, Catherine Levitt had more to say about it.
Let us listen to cut two jonas about the administration
obviously roiled by what has happened in the last twenty
four hours, with even more of the judges raising their
hands declaring themselves part of the resistance. Princess Die sent
me a very funny cartoon. It is a judge holding
the gavel in one hand. Trump is not a king. Meanwhile,
he's got that he's dressed like a king himself with
the crown on his head, declaring Trump is not the
king we are pretty much is the point of it.
And here's Caroline Levitt again from the pressure today.
Speaker 4: There is an effort by.
Speaker 5: This administration to tackle these rogue judges and the injunctions
and the blockades that we have faced in our broken
judicial system. In every case, I mean, we have seen
time and time again these lower district court judges ruling
against this administration in the president's basic executive authority and powers.
And this administration is fighting every single one of those
battles in court, including already the block that came down
from the tariff court, the IEPA court last night. And
as on my way out here to the briefing room,
I understand that there was another district court judge right
here in Washington, d c. Who ruled against the president's
tariff power. And I will get to the heart of
your question. And I'm glad that we are addressing this
in the room today because nationwide injunctions ordered against the
first Trump administration.
Speaker 4: Trump one point zero account for more than half.
Speaker 5: The injunctions issued in this country since nineteen sixty three.
And President Trump had more injunctions in one full month
of office in February than Joe Biden had in three years.
And let me roll through some of these radical injunctions
to paint the picture for the American people at home.
Speaker 4: These are not just talking points.
Speaker 5: These are real judges in the court of law who
are trying to block the president's power and the policies
that he was elected to enact. For example, a court
ordered the Trump administration to return already deported terrorist.
Speaker 4: Aliens back to the United States.
Speaker 5: A court has ruled the Trump administration can't even temporarily
pause our refugee programs. Courts prohibited the Trump administration from
eliminating federal funding for child transgender surgery and mutilation, a
practice that the American people overwhelmingly reject. A court also
held that the Trump administration could not ban people experiencing
gender dysphoria or mental health issues from serving in the military.
Ridiculous Courts prohibited the removal of transgender women from women's
prisons despite potential physical harm to real women in those prisons,
biological women. A Northern District of California judge issued an
absurd ruling that the president cannot fire people within the
executive branch without Congress passing a bill, even though Congress
has expressly authorized the President, through the Office of Personnel Management,
to authorize reductions.
Speaker 4: In force across agencies.
Speaker 5: A court also ordered the Trump administration to rehire thousands
of already fired employees in several cases. A federal judge
blocked the Trump administration from defunding the Department of Education.
Another signature campaign promised that this president has.
Speaker 4: The power to implement.
Speaker 5: Courts ordered the Trump administration could not eliminate funding for
illegal DEI programs, hence the word illegal.
Speaker 4: These are illegal.
Speaker 5: Programs to begin with, and now the courts are trying
to say this president can't roll them back. And a
district court judge prohibited the president from issuing any categorical
funding freezes, and then another court ordered, on top of that,
the administration makes two billion dollars of payments.
Speaker 4: In thirty six hours.
Speaker 5: These are just a few of the ridiculous orders that
we have seen from lower district court judges every day,
and we hope that the Supreme Court will weigh in
and rain them in.
Speaker 2: And I hope so too, and I further hope again,
this is not just a Supreme Court. We have a
Republican Congress. I think Peter Ducey raised that question too.
Where's the Congress on this? The Congress should be actually
getting involved with this and writing laws that dictate how
these judges can operate. And Congress under Article three, has
the power to do that, and they should do it.
While she was there a quick aside, Caroline Levitt also
talked about the Biden cognitive decline scandal. You know, Jake
tapperself must be selling a lot of books. This book
is everywhere. The guy and the rest of the media
that are cashing in on their own life of journalism
by then writing a book on their lack of covering
what really happened and cashing out like mad Cole's. It
is incredible to see this whole thing happen. But Caroline
Levitt waded into on Jill Biden. You know, Joe Biden
was on the View and all that, and this is
what Caroline Levitt had to say about that.
Speaker 5: Certainly, speak up about what she saw in regards to
her husband and when she saw in what she knew,
Because I think anybody looking again at the videos and
photo evidence of Joe Biden, with your own eyes and
a little bit of common sense, can see this was
a clear cover up and Jill Biden was certainly complicit
in that cover up. There are there's documentation video evidence
of her clearly shielding her husband away from the cameras.
They were just on the View last week. She was
saying everything is fine. She's still lying to the American people.
She still thinks the American public are so stupid that
they're going to believe her lies, and frankly, it's insulting
and she needs to answer.
Speaker 2: You know what I like about Caroline Lovett. She doesn't
hold back. She just goes with it. There's no let
me find the nicest diplomatic way to say this. She
just puts it up right out there the way it
is all right in other matters. Let's just veer off.
I had a few other stories that made the list.
One is Jasamine Crockett. I don't have this quote here,
and I didn't bother to send it in so that
we could play it because it's so crazy. But Jasmine
Crockett said yesterday she believes Donald Trump targets her because
the Republican Bass, the Republican Bass secretly admires her. Jasmin Crockett,
I think he's listening to the polling Republics. Republicans poll
all the time. I have no idea what's happening at
all in their polic but I can tell you in
real life, I've had a number of Republicans that approach
me as they see me out and they say, Hey,
I just wanted to let you know that I really
like you, Like we come from completely different parties, but
I believe you're fighting for the people. I believe that
you are trying to do which best for other of us.
I may disagree with like like how you feel like
we get there, but I agree with your fight. What
the heck? I may disagree with you, but I agree
with you, okay. And I think that's what's scary for them.
Jasmine said, this idea that not just say black folk
that are listening to me right, or it's not just
like super liberal folk. This idea like you know that
people who can, even who can even who aren't Democrats,
would actually listen to what I have to say. I
listened to what she has to say for reasons other
than she might think. Now she was on with the
former media star of CNN. You know, it's funny when
you're in this business a long time, you can look
and you just see those things. Like I looked at
his studio, Jim acosta studio. I said, oh, this is
a cute home studio he has. He has a nice
real on air light behind him, like he's really on
the air at a big whatever. And I'm not making
fun of it. I'm just saying, you know, but it's
not the lighting. It's not to make it so he's
it's like a little like whatever. Anyway, Jim Jim Acosta
was interviewing Jasmine the Crocket and.
Speaker 7: Just let me ask you about the ice up because
I mean, I have been going off on this on
my show.
Speaker 2: To me, it's not America when ice agents can show.
Speaker 7: Up in masks, sweet people up all the lowest show,
send them out of the country without due process, put
them in these facilities, and we don't even know what's
happening inside these facilities. So of course it makes sense
that members of Congress would want to go visit one
of these ice facilities and say, okay, what's going on here.
We're members of Congress. We represent the people who want
to know what's going on here. And then there's this
whole there's this scuffle where they're given these members of
Congress a hard time. And I'm worried about folks like yourself, Congress,
because I have to assume that you know, of course
they would like to arrest you and some of the
others who are more outstodan.
Speaker 2: That's that's just me thinking that.
Speaker 8: No, it's interesting because my deputy chief was quite young,
still has his grandmother what he calls this particular one name,
and so I was having to go to El Paso.
After I got done, I was having to I had
to go to El Paso to test the SI in
federal to the redistricting that was done in twenty twenty.
Speaker 4: And the state of.
Speaker 8: His grandmother did not know why we were going to
l Passo, but she thought we were going to a
detention facility that I don't know about Jasmine going because
you know, they want to lock her up and they
probably gonna grab her and throw her in too.
Speaker 2: And I don't know about Jasny going down to the
detention that they're gonna probably.
Speaker 8: Lock up looking at people like me and really scared
because they know there is it's hardt on my back.
When you have the prege in the United States, this woman.
Speaker 2: Thinks so much of first my name. She really does
think this, there's a target on my back. That's not
what's on your back. Okay, We've seen what's on your back,
and anyway, I'm not going to go there. Uh, it's
not a target.

Speaker 2: You know what they wanted to do. They didn't have
enough passing kids in school, so they wanted to lower
They wanted to lower the passing grade. They wanted to
say that if you got forty one percent out of
one hundred right, you passed. But they had to turn
it down. Let's see if we have time for this
one real quick.
