In a robust defense of President Donald Trump's policies, the White House has condemned court decisions that contradict the administration's actions. These rulings, according to officials, are driven by so-called 'judicial activists' on the bench.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized these judges for allegedly betraying their roles as neutral interpreters of the law. Her comments suggest a brewing 'constitutional crisis' instigated by what the administration views as overtly political judicial overreach.

The Trump administration continues to face legal challenges to its expansive policy measures. Despite this, Leavitt insists the judgments reflect a personal ideological bias rather than adherence to legal principles.
