WorldNetDaily’s war on judges who won’t meekly do President Trump’s bidding continued:
- Judge blocks agreement that would settle Trump’s claim against IRS, establish weaponization fund
- ‘Stop playing games with America’s Security!’ Trump rips federal judge fighting ‘DronePort’ atop ballroom
- Trump administration reveals propaganda judge has ordered put back in national parks
- Federal judge permanently bans Trump from implementing proof of citizenship to vote
WND also disapproved of judges blocking Trump’s meddling with the Kennedy Center. Bob Unruh huffed in a May 29 article:
A federal judge has decided to micromanage President Donald Trump’s plans to have essential repairs done on a failing federal building, the Kennedy Center.
The fight is just one part of the swamp’s opposition to Trump’s agenda, which includes a new donated ballroom at the White House, an arch recognizing the 250th anniversary of the nation and more.
One of the projects was Trump’s announcement that the center would be shut down for necessary repairs, a decision announced by its board of directors.
Judge Christopher Cooper said his opinion was that the repairs could be done without the two-year closure.
Unruh noted that the judge “was given his lifetime job and income by Barack Obama” — whom he wouldn’t admit was president — but he failed to disclose the fact that Trump fired the original Kennedy Center board and replaced its members with Trump toadies. He also didn’t explain why the judge is supposedly trying to “micromanage” the Kennedy Center while Trump apparently is not.
The next day, Unruh uncritically repeated Trump’s ranting about the judge:
President Donald Trump flooded social media on Friday with a call for “charges” against an “Obama judge” who has an “anti-Trump Hater” wife after the jurist attacked the president over his plan to close down and refurbish the aging and possibly structurally dangerous Kennedy Center.
The judge, Christopher Cooper, also ordered a permanent reversal of a decision by the center’s board to rename the facility the Trump-Kennedy Center.
WorldNetDaily reported when the judge issues his odd, and decidedly partisan-appearing, decision.
Cooper claimed the renovations could go forward but the facility would not be allowed to close.
His micromanagement of the decision extended to an injunction ordering that his plan, not that of the president or any engineers, be followed.
Again, Unruh failed to acknowledge the fact that the Kennedy Center board is stacked with Trump toadies, which is the most reasonable explanation for why it’s so eager to add Trump’s name to the building.
Unruh’s article is illustrated with a photo of Obama attorney general Eric Holder, despite the fact that the only mention of him in the article is a passing reference to the judge’s wife having once worked as a counselor to him.
